# Commission Regulation (EU) No 1253/2014 of 7 July 2014 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for ventilation units (Text with EEA relevance), Division 2: From 1 January 2018:

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

All ventilation units, except dual use units, shall be equipped with a multi-speed drive or a variable speed drive.
All BVUs shall have a HRS.
The HRS shall have a thermal by-pass facility.
The minimum thermal efficiency ηt_nrvu of all HRS except run-around HRS in BVUs shall be 73 % and the efficiency bonus E = (ηt_nrvu – 0,73) * 3 000 if the thermal efficiency ηt_nrvu is at least 73 %, otherwise E = 0.
The minimum thermal efficiency ηt_nrvu of run-around HRS in BVUs shall be 68 % and the efficiency bonus E = (ηt_nrvu – 0,68) * 3 000 if the thermal efficiency ηt_nrvu is at least 68 %, otherwise E = 0.
The minimum fan efficiency for UVUs (ηνu ) is
6,2 % * ln(P) + 42,0 % if P ≤ 30 kW and
63,1 % if P > 30 kW.
The maximum internal specific fan power of ventilation components (SFPint_limit ) in W/(m3/s) is
for a BVU with run-around HRS
1 600 + E – 300 * qnom /2 – F if qnom < 2 m3/s and
1 300 + E – F if qnom ≥ 2 m3/s;
for a BVU with other HRS
1 100 + E – 300 * qnom /2 – F if qnom < 2 m3/s and
800 + E – F if qnom ≥ 2 m3/s;
230 for an UVU intended to be used with a filter.
If a filter unit is part of the configuration the product shall be equipped with a visual signalling or an alarm in the control system which shall be activated if the filter pressure drop exceeds the maximum allowable final pressure drop.
