When do we need to perform a heating system reception?
This operation which is mandatory, need to be performed during the installation of a new boiler, or in a modification of the installation (example: replacing the boiler body, replacing the burner, moving a boiler).
Our “Chauffagiste agréé PEB” or our “Conseiller Chauffage PEB” will give you an “attestation de réception” of your heating system according to the EPB regulation.
Who should carry out this control?
In French it is the RIT (responsable des installations technique) which means the responsible of the technical installation. That is to say, the owner of the boiler, or the co-owners (represented by a property management company) in the case of a common boiler.
If the facility is subject to an environmental permit, then the person or the company which is licensed for this environment permit, who will carry on this responsibility.
What do I need to prepare for our visit:

- The logbook of the installation.
- The building will be free access to verify the compliance of the system as a whole.
For a type 2 system: one boiler greater than 100 kW (100 kW included), or several boilers.
- The entire system must be complete and must already have functioned.

- The heating contractor details.
- The specification contains the technical part of the offer of the installation.
- In the case of replacement of the boiler or any part thereof, should the old periodic inspection and / or old reception documents (if available).

Why ask CertiBru to perform this control instead of your heating contractor?
Two Reasons:
- We are 100% independent towards your heating contractor. This is very important because your heating contractor can do reception or the diagnosis of the heating systems himself, but it may of course make no particular comment on his own work.
By using CertiBru, you are guaranteed of an independent work, always in accordance with the law and in your best interests.
- The second reason concerns property management company or co-owners of collective heating systems.
You know that the EPB regulation requires owners who wish to rent or sell their property, to establish an EPB certificate.
This requires you to each time organize the visit of the heating system of your building.
Indeed, an EPB certifier has no right to base its study on the visit of another certifier. It is therefore forbidden to produce a copy of the data collection sheet to avoid that a new certifier request to visit the boiler room.
This document complements the reception of your heating system. It contains all the information necessary for an EPB certifier to achieve its control without the need to visit the boiler room and ensures consistency of the EPB certificate technical parts.
