scope:

NEN-EN 15316-4-8 is part of a series of standards on the method for calculation of system energy requirements and system efficiencies. The scope of this specific part is to standardize the: - required inputs; - calculation method; - resulting outputs, for space heating generation by: - air heating systems, including control; - overhead radiant heating systems for non-domestic use, including control; and - stoves and local heaters for residential use. This standard does not apply to heating systems that utilize water as a heat transfer medium. Other heat generation systems such as boilers, heat pumps and others are covered in other sub modules of M3-8. Table 1 shows the relative position of this standard within the set of EPB standards in the context of the modular structure as set out in EN ISO 52000-1.
