What EN 16798 Covers The EN 16798 series (which replaced EN 15251) sets the framework for indoor environmental quality and the energy performance of ventilation and building services. It defines how much ventilation is needed and, through the accompanying energy requirements, when recovery is effectively mandatory. Energy Recovery in the Standard Where outdoor-air rates are […]
EN 308: Test Procedures for Air-to-Air Heat Transfer in Recovery Equipment
Purpose of EN 308 EN 308 is the European standard that specifies test procedures for air-to-air heat transfer in heat recovery equipment. Rather than setting a pass/fail threshold, it defines how to measure temperature effectiveness and, for enthalpy devices, moisture effectiveness under controlled inlet conditions. What Gets Measured The test fixes inlet dry-bulb temperatures and, […]
