BuildingRegulationsandtheBenchmarkCommissioning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.SimilararrangementswillfollowforScotlandandwillapplyinNorthernIrelandfrom1January2006.
TheHealth&SafetyExecutiveoperatesthe‘GasSafeRegister’,aselfcertificationschemeforgasheatingappliances.
ThesearrangementsrepresentachangefromthesituationwherebycompliancewithBuildingRegulationswasacceptedasbeing
demonstratedbycompletionoftheBenchmarkLogbook(whichwasthenleftonsitewiththecustomer).
WiththeintroductionofSelfCertificationSchemes,theBenchmarkLogbookisbeingwithdrawn.However,asimilardocumentinthe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.
TheflowchartbelowgivesguidanceforinstallersontheprocessnecessarytoensurecompliancewithBuildingRegulations.
