# 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: The aims of the criteria

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

These criteria aim to limit the environmental impacts from manufacture, operation and end of life of electrically driven, gas driven or gas absorption heat pumps. They include:
the efficiency of heating and/or heating/cooling of buildings,
reducing the environmental impact of heating and/or heating/cooling buildings,
reducing or preventing the risks for the environment and for human health related to the use of hazardous substances,
ensuring that proper information on the heat pump and its efficient operation is provided to the customer and the installer of the heat pump.
The criteria are set at levels that promote the labelling of heat pumps that ensure low environmental impact.
