Ecodesign and energy labelling — Space heaters

Scope and legal context

Regulation (EU) No 813/2013 covers specified space heaters and combination heaters. Delegated Regulation (EU) No 811/2013 also addresses relevant packages. Boiler, heat-pump and cogeneration technologies use different performance inputs; a component’s rated efficiency is not a complete seasonal space-heating or package assessment.

Status and transition

Read the ecodesign and energy-label capacity boundaries separately. Combination-heater and package claims require the applicable additional calculations; a boiler or heat-pump report does not establish all package values.

Questions for the product review

  • Which heater technology, rated output and heat-delivery arrangement apply?
  • For heat pumps, which climate and temperature application underlie the declaration?
  • Does a combination heater also require a separate water-heating assessment?

Evidence to examine

  • Preserve the rated and part-load performance, auxiliary consumption and control assumptions used in seasonal calculations.
  • Relate heat-pump test points to the declared source, sink temperature and operating limits.
  • Keep package calculations traceable to the supplied heater, controls, solar devices and other relevant components.
