REGULATIONS AND CERTIFICATIONS

The ECODESIGN regulation establishes the requirements and methods of application of Directive 2009/125 / EC of the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union, regarding the eco-design criteria for biomass appliances.

The objective of the regulation is to improve the environmental performance of new biomass heat generators and that is why, starting from its entry into force, only appliances capable of meeting the required efficiency and emissions limits can be marketed.

The regulation is mandatory and must be directly applied by each of the member States of the European Union starting from:

• ■  January 1st, 2020
  for biomass boilers (EU Regulation 2015/1189)

• ■  January 1, 2022
  for biomass household appliances, such as:
  stoves, fireplaces and kitchens (EU Regulation 2015/1185)
  
  
  

PRODUCT CERTIFICATIONS

WIESBERG appliances are submitted to independent Notified Bodies for an evaluation, based on the strictest European laws. Subsequently, the Notified Bodies certify the product’s high efficiency and low emissions, as required by various national and regional laws.

ENERGY LABEL

The European Energy Label provides consumers with accurate information on the energy consumption and performance of stoves, hydro-stoves, kitchens and boilers, both wood and pellet-fired.

WIESBERG appliances are designed and built with a particular attention to energy saving, reaching and widely exceeding class A for most of the products.

As for household appliances, thanks to the Energy Label, the consumer can identify the energy characteristics of the product, such as:

• ■  The name or brand of the supplier and the model identifier;
• ■  the energy efficiency class of the appliance,
      according to a scale ranging from G to A ++;
• ■  the direct thermal power of the appliance, i. e. the nominal Output,
      expressed in kW.
