The document discusses requirements for air conditioning inspections in the UK. Building owners and managers have a statutory obligation to inspect air conditioning systems according to the 2003 European Performance of Buildings Directive. Systems over 250kW must be inspected immediately, while those over 12kW must be inspected by 2011. Inspections must be conducted every 5 years by an accredited assessor and include recommendations to improve efficiency. Inspections help ensure compliance and avoid fines, improve energy ratings, and reduce costs.
