Heat Pump KEYMARK certification

About
The Heat Pump KEYMARK is a voluntary certification mark that supports the quality and performance of heat pumps on the European market. It can apply to all heat pumps, combination heat pumps and hot water heaters. The certification is based on independent third-party testing and is compliant with efficiency requirements as set by Ecodesign Lot 1, 2 and 10.
The scheme is owned by CEN, the European Committee for Standardization and its secretariat is coordinated by EHPA. The certificate is granted by independent Certification Bodies and the testing is carried out by registered Test Centres.
The Heat Pump KEYMARK offers a single certificate for a single European market, as it is recognised in several member states, while the number of participating countries is constantly increasing. The quality mark can be used for access to public subsidies in most European countries while creating trust in the marketplace through a transparent and strong company image. It is mutually accepted by all the empowered Certification Bodies.
