TECHNICAL ANNEX
ECODESIGN DIRECTIVE
The Ecodesign Directive (EU 2015/1188) sets forth essential regulations for the marketing and implemen - tation of household local space heaters. This directive, effective from August 10, 2015, with a transitional phase until January 1, 2018, aims to foster environ - mentally friendly design and labeling of local space heaters, ultimately leading to reduced energy con - sumption. At alre, we fully support this initiative and the push to - wards energy-saving control technology. For nearly five decades, our focus has been on the development and production of innovative products that are optimized for energy efficiency. This commitment aligns perfectly with the goals of the Ecodesign Directive, as we con - tinue to contribute to a more sustainable future.
The Directive distinguishes between different types of heating, electric local space heaters and local space heaters for gaseous or liquid fuels. The electric local space heaters are additionally subdivided into:
+ portable local space heaters, + fixed local space heaters, + storage local space heaters, + underfloor local space heaters and + Radiant local space heaters.
Central space heaters that distribute heat to different rooms via a liquid medium are not affected by this regulation. The following table lists the products that comply with the Directive for use in portable local space heaters, fixed local space heaters and underfloor local space heaters. If you have any questions about suitable prod - ucts for other types of heating, please do not hesitate to contact us.
