# Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1185 of 24 April 2015 implementing Directive 2009/125/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to ecodesign requirements for solid fuel local space heaters (Text with EEA relevance), Division 2: Specific ecodesign requirements for emissions.

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

(a) From 1 January 2022 emissions of particulate matter (PM) from solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed the following values:
(i) emissions of PM by open fronted solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed 50 mg/m3 at 13 % O2 when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(1) or 6 g/kg (dry matter) when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(2);
(ii) emissions of PM by closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using solid fuel other than compressed wood in the form of pellets and cookers shall not exceed 40 mg/m3 at 13 % O2 when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(1) or 5 g/kg (dry matter) when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(2) or 2,4 g/kg (dry matter) for biomass or 5,0 g/kg (dry matter) for solid fossil fuel when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(3);
(iii) emissions of PM by closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using compressed wood in form of pellets shall not exceed 20 mg/m3 at 13 % O2 when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(1) or 2,5 g/kg (dry matter) when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(2) or 1,2 g/kg (dry matter) when measured according to the method described in Annex III, point 4(a)(i)(3).
(b) From 1 January 2022 emissions of organic gaseous compounds (OGCs) from solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed the following values:
(i) emissions of OGCs by open fronted solid fuel local space heaters, closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using solid fuel other than compressed wood in the form of pellets and cookers shall not exceed 120 mgC/m3 at 13 % O2;
(ii) emissions of OGCs by closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using compressed wood in form of pellets shall not exceed 60 mgC/m3 at 13 % O2.
(c) From 1 January 2022 emissions of carbon monoxide (CO) from solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed the following values:
(i) emissions of CO by open fronted solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed 2 000 mg/m3 at 13 % O2;
(ii) emissions of CO by closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using solid fuel other than compressed wood in the form of pellets and cookers shall not exceed 1 500 mg/m3 at 13 % O2;
(iii) emissions of CO by closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters using compressed wood in form of pellets shall not exceed 300 mg/m3 at 13 % O2.
(d) From 1 January 2022 emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from solid fuel local space heaters shall not exceed the following values:
(i) emissions of NOx by open fronted solid fuel local space heaters, closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters and cookers using biomass shall not exceed 200 mg/m3 expressed as NO2 at 13 % O2;
(ii) emissions of NOx by open fronted solid fuel local space heaters, closed fronted solid fuel local space heaters and cookers using fossil solid fuel shall not exceed 300 mg/m3 expressed as NO2 at 13 % O2.
