1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BUILDING REGULATIONS AND BENCHMARK CHECKLIST
Building Regulations (England & Wales) require notification of
the installation of a heating appliance to the relevant Local
Authority Building Control Department.
From 1 April 2005 this can be achieved via a Competent
Persons Self Certification Scheme as an option to notifying the
Local Authority directly.
CORGI operates a Self Certification Scheme for gas heating
appliances.
With the introduction of Self Certification Schemes, the
Benchmark Logbook is being withdrawn. However, a similar
document in the form of a commissioning checklist and service
interval record is incorporated at the back of these
instructions.
This company is a member of the Benchmark initiative and
fully supports the aims of the programme. Its aim is to
improve the standards of installation and commissioning of
central heating systems in the UK and to encourage the regular
servicing of all central heating systems to ensure safety and
efficiency.
Building Regulations require that installations should comply
with manufacturer’s instructions. It is therefore important that
the commissioning checklist is completed by the installer. The
relevant section of Building Regulations only relates to
dwellings. Therefore the checklist only applies if the appliance
is being installed in a dwelling or some related structure.
