Water Heating

The Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 812/2013 refers to water heaters with a rated heat output ≤ 70 kW, hot water storage tanks with a storage volume ≤ 500 litres and packages of water heater ≤ 70 kW and solar device.

Individual products:

Water heater with a rated heat output ≤ 70kW;

Conventional water heater (fossil fuel based)

Electric water heater

Solar water heater (thermo syphon system);

Heat pump water heater;

Heat pump water heaters with fuel driven combustion unit

Hot water storage tanks with a volume ≤ 500 l

Note: solar devices, according to the relevant definitions in the Regulations, are made of a solar collector, a solar hot water storage tank or a pump in the collector loop. This means that a solar device always contains a solar collector. These systems are, individually, not to be labelled, as these are not energy consuming products. On the other hand, thermosiphon systems may require individual (product) labelling.
