# Commission Decision of 9 November 2007 establishing the ecological criteria for the award of the Community eco-label to electrically driven, gas driven or gas absorption heat pumps (notified under document number C(2007) 5492) (Text with EEA relevance) (2007/742/EC), Division Guidance for purchasing an Ecolabelled heat pump: — Information fiche for customers —

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Efficient operation of this heat pump will only be ensured if the system is correctly matched to the heating or cooling demand of the building and climate zone in which it is installed!
Always consult a competent installer and ask them to complete this fiche before purchasing!
The EU Ecolabel is awarded to those models of heat pump which are more energy efficient and which minimise their environmental impacts.
This fiche should be completed by a qualified installer to provide you with information and recommendations about the most suitable heat pump system for your home. In this way you will obtain the benefits of the very high efficiency of heat pumps which concentrate the heat stored in the air, ground or water.
Some systems are also reversible and can produce cooling through extracting heat and ejecting it to the immediate surroundings. Some systems may also provide hot water for sanitary use.
Heat pumps can be selected which can be used with most distribution systems including radiators, warm air and under floor heating, and can be retrofitted to most existing heating systems with some suitable precautions as set out below.
