EcoDesign & Labelling Directive (ErP) Jeff House November 2015 Baxi Make it Easy 1
What is ErP? ErP is a European Wide Directive designed to: Improve efficiency of heating & hot water products Generate CO2 emission savings of 110 Mt in the heating sector Provide clear performance information for consumers
Scope EcoDesign Lot 1 ErP Lot 1 Hydronic space and combination heaters with a rated heat output 400kW Scope Gas, LPG, oil & electric boilers (incl. combi) Dual fuel boilers mchp <50kWe Heat pumps (air, ground, water source) ErP governs all product placed on the market No distinction between new build and replacement 3
Scope EcoDesign Lot 2 ErP Lot 2 Water heaters with a rated heat output 400kW and hot water storage tanks 2000 litres Scope Storage and instantaneous design Gas, LPG, oil & electric heaters Dual fuel heaters Solar thermal hot water Dedicated heat pump water heaters ErP governs all product placed on the market No distinction between new build and replacement 4
Labelling Directive Energy Labelling Directive (2010/30/EU) Implementing directive linked with ErP Enforces common energy efficiency rating across all technologies & member states ErP sets out laboratory test regime to inform label rating Requirement for package labels Effective from 26/9/15
Scope EcoDesign Lot 11 Primary Circulating Pumps <2500W: Only class A modulating will be available Pump Manufacturer: To install if purchased as a stand alone pump from 1 st January 2013 Boiler Manufacturer: When installed integrated within a product from 1 st August 2015 Boiler Manufacturer (spares): When replacing a pump as a spare part from 1 st January 2020

Controls Classes & Package Efficiency Influence Control Class Class I Description On/off Room Thermostat: A room thermostat that controls the on/off operation of a heater. Performance parameters, including switching differential and room temperature control accuracy are determined by the thermostat's mechanical construction Efficiency improvement/ Correction factor +1% Class II Class III Weather compensator control, for use with modulating heaters: A heater flow temperature control that varies the set point of the flow temperature of water leaving the heater dependent upon prevailing outside temperature and selected weather compensation curve. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the heater. Weather compensator control, for use with on/off output heaters: A heater flow temperature control that varies the set point of the flow temperature of water leaving the heater dependent upon prevailing outside temperature and selected weather compensation curve. Heater flow temperature is varied by controlling the on/off operation of the heater +2% +1.5% Class IV TPI room thermostat, for use with on/off output heaters: An electronic room thermostat that controls both thermostat cycle rate and in-cycle on/off ratio of the heater proportional to room temperature. TPI control strategy reduces mean water temperature, improves room temperature control accuracy and enhances system efficiency. +2% Class V Modulating room thermostat, for use with modulating heaters: An electronic room thermostat that varies the flow temperature of the water leaving the heater dependent upon measured room temperature deviation from room thermostat set point. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the heater. +3% Class VI Weather compensator and room sensor, for use with modulating heaters: A heater flow temperature control that varies the flow temperature of water leaving the heater dependent upon prevailing outside temperature and selected weather compensation curve. A room temperature sensor monitors room temperature and adjusts the compensation curve parallel displacement to improve room comfort. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the heater. +4% Class VII Weather compensator and room sensor, for use with on/off output heaters: A heater flow temperature control that varies the flow temperature of water leaving the heater dependent upon prevailing outside temperature and selected weather compensation curve. A room temperature sensor monitors room temperature and adjusts the compensation curve parallel displacement to improve room comfort. Heater flow temperature is varied by controlling the on/off operation of the heater. +3.5% Class VIII Multi-sensor room temperature control, for use with modulating heaters: An electronic control, equipped with 3 or more room sensors that varies the flow temperature of the water leaving the heater dependent upon the aggregated measured room temperature deviation from room sensor set points. Control is achieved by modulating the output of the heater. +5%
