2015/1188 - Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 of 28 April 2015 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for local space heaters
Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 implements Directive 2009/125/EC by establishing ecodesign requirements for local space heaters with nominal heat outputs of up to 50 kW (domestic) and 120 kW (commercial). It targets products using gaseous, liquid fuels, or electricity, including those with indirect fluid heating functionality, to reduce environmental impact primarily by improving energy efficiency and limiting nitrogen oxide emissions during use. The regulation excludes specific heater types such as sauna stoves, air heating products, and heaters designed exclusively for outdoor use. Requirements, effective from January 1, 2018, aim to harmonize energy and emissions standards across the EU, fostering a level playing field and consumer protection without compromising product functionality or affordability. Compliance involves conformity assessments, with manufacturers required to provide detailed technical documentation. Market surveillance procedures are defined, and indicative benchmarks of best available technology are provided to promote transparency. The regulation also mandates a review by 2019 for potential updates based on technological progress, including consideration of stricter emissions limits and certification methods.
Purpose
The Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 implements the ecodesign requirements as per Directive 2009/125/EC specifically targeting local space heaters. The regulation aims to improve the environmental performance of local space heaters used in residential and commercial settings by setting mandatory ecological design criteria. These measures focus on reducing energy consumption and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, which are significant environmental concerns during the use phase of these heaters. By addressing these factors, the regulation supports the EU's broader goals of energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emission reduction, and air quality improvement, without imposing excessive costs or impairing product functionality or affordability.
Key Obligations
- Ecodesign Standards: Local space heaters must meet the specific energy efficiency and NOx emission limits outlined in Annex II of the regulation starting from January 1, 2018.
- Measurement and Verification: Compliance must be measured and calculated according to harmonized methods detailed in Annex III to ensure consistent and reliable assessment across the EU.
- Conformity Assessment: Manufacturers must follow conformity assessment procedures described in Directive 2009/125/EC Annexes IV or V, including maintaining detailed technical documentation supporting compliance.
- Market Surveillance: Member States are required to apply the verification procedure in Annex IV to ensure market products comply with the ecodesign requirements.
- Information Provision: Manufacturers should provide clear information regarding product disassembly, recycling, and disposal to reduce environmental impacts throughout the product lifecycle.
- Best Practice Benchmarks: The regulation establishes indicative benchmarks for best available technologies to promote awareness and encourage improvement beyond minimum legal requirements.
- Review Clause: The European Commission committed to reviewing the regulation by January 1, 2019, considering technological advances, tightened ecodesign standards, emission reductions, verification tolerance adjustments, and the potential introduction of third-party certification.
- Transitional Provisions: Until January 1, 2018, Member States may permit products compliant with existing national standards on energy efficiency and NOx emissions.
Affected Products and Actors
- Products Covered: Domestic and commercial local space heaters with nominal heat outputs of up to 50 kW for domestic units and up to 120 kW for commercial units or single segments.

Le règlement (UE) 2015/1188 établit des exigences d'écoconception pour les dispositifs de chauffage décentralisés, domestiques et commerciaux, d'une puissance thermique nominale allant jusqu'à 50 kW pour les domestiques et 120 kW pour les commerciaux. Ces exigences visent à réduire la consommation énergétique et les émissions d’oxydes d’azote durant la phase d’utilisation, contribuant ainsi à diminuer l’impact environnemental de ces produits et à favoriser une concurrence équitable entre différentes technologies. Les dispositifs concernés utilisent des combustibles gazeux, liquides ou l’électricité, sauf certains cas exclus tels que les chauffages spécifiques pour l’extérieur, les poêles de sauna et les dispositifs commandés à distance. Le règlement encourage l’utilisation de technologies existantes, sans coûts excessifs, pour améliorer l’efficacité énergétique et réduire les émissions polluantes, avec un gain estimé de 157 PJ d’énergie économisée et une réduction de 6,7 millions de tonnes de CO2 d’ici 2020. Par ailleurs, il impose des modalités de mesure, de calcul et d’évaluation de la conformité, tout en demandant aux fabricants d’informer sur le démontage et le recyclage des produits pour limiter leur impact environnemental.

Frequently Asked Questions
An EU Regulation is a binding legislative act that must be applied in its entirety across the European Union. Unlike directives, regulations do not need to be transposed into national law and are directly applicable in all member states. Regulations are used when uniform application across all EU countries is essential.
Regulation 2015/1188 covers "Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 of 28 April 2015 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for local space heaters". There are 40 standards associated with this regulation.
Harmonized standards under 2015/1188 are European standards (ENs) developed by CEN, CENELEC, or ETSI in response to a mandate from the European Commission. When these standards are cited in the Official Journal of the European Union, products manufactured in conformity with them benefit from a presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of 2015/1188, facilitating CE marking and free movement within the European Economic Area.
