Do I need an Air Conditioning Energy Inspection & Report?
Legislation requires that ALL BUILDINGS with more than 12kw of air conditioning/cooling capacity are now required by law to have an Air Conditioning Energy Inspection. A Landmark registered report on each site has to be completed and lodged; these should have been completed by the 4th January 2011, however if this has not been undertaken we are able to help.
In the case of buildings with more than 250KW capacity the inspections should have been carried out by 4th January 2009. Again if this has not been undertaken we are able to help.
For qualifying buildings without evidence of an Air Conditioning Energy Inspection and Report there is a real risk of reoccurring fines.
Please contact us by email or telephone if you require assistance or need any clarification on possible exempt systems, such as dedicated server/comms room systems or dedicated process cooling systems.

Legal Requirements for Air Conditioning Inspections
Albany Energy adheres to the air conditioning inspection legislation known as TM44, which is a necessary requirement enforced by the 'Energy Performance of Buildings Directive' (EPBD).
• Existing systems over 12kw - Inspection to be completed by 4th January 2011
• New systems (installed after January 2008) over 12kw - Inspection to be completed within five years of installation
On site inspections to assess efficiency and energy use are carried out by Albany Energy in order to fulfil legal requirements. These inspections and subsequent reports offer guidance on being more energy efficient, often resulting in significant energy savings, CO2 savings and savings on energy bills.

Not Just a Legal Requirement
An Air Conditioning Energy Inspection Report should not just be thought of as a Legal Requirement but should also offer clear and invaluable guidance on how to lower your energy bills by reducing energy consumption of the associated systems through improved operation and correct control.
The aim of the Air Conditioning Inspection Report is to:
• Provide building owners/operators with Information about system performance.
• Identify opportunities to reduce your CO2 emissions, save energy and money.

All reports include and highlighting measures which, if adopted, will have the potential to save energy and money within a reasonable payback period.
