What is PD CEN/TR 15316-6-9 - Energy performance of buildings - Explanation and justification of EN 15316-4-8 about?
PD CEN/TR 15316-6-9 is the ninth subpart of the sixth part of multi-series standard that discusses energy performance of buildings with explanation and justification of EN 15316-4-8.
PD CEN/TR 15316-6-9 refers to EN 15316-4-8, module M3-8.8.
It contains information to support the correct understanding, use and national adaptation of
EN 15316-4-8.
The scope of EN 15316-4-8 includes three categories of products:
- Air heating system means a system with one or more warm air generators for heating purposes. The hot air may be diffused in the installation space from the generator or distributed via a ductwork
- Overhead radiant heating systems, means systems using gas and designed to provide heat into the installation room. Radiation may be generated directly by the flame (overhead radiant luminous heaters) or by the circulation of flue gas in ductwork installed near the ceiling (overhead radiant tube heaters)
- Stoves and local heaters mean local devices that provide heat by transferring the heat generated by combustion into the surrounding environment
Note-
PD CEN/TR 15316-6-9 does not contain any normative provision.
