BSRIA offers UKAS fan coil accreditation

UK: BSRIA has extended its scope of UKAS accreditation to include fan coil unit testing in accordance with BS EN 1397:2021 heat exchangers – hydronic room fan coil units. 

BSRIA provides thermal performance testing in heating and cooling mode, as well as airflow performance testing for all types of fan coil units.

Testing takes place in an environmentally-controlled chamber where clients can observe the live results and witness the testing process in person or remotely. It can be carried out at standard conditions, site specific conditions or other bespoke requirements. 

Testing can be used to validate a clearly defined specification, or can be flexible to support product development needs.
