HETAS


Installers approved and registered


HETAS officially approves and registers installers of solid fuel, wood and biomass domestic heating appliances. The Government-recognised body ensures that registered installers are trained and regularly assessed as competent for working on dry appliances, appliances with boilers, solid mineral, wood and biomass appliances, hot water and heating systems, and re-lining chimneys. The organisation also approves the appliances, fuels and services. With regard to appliances and equipment, its remit covers the testing and approval of boilers, cookers, open fires, stoves and room heaters.

Hetas publishes lists of


approved appliances, equipment and fuels and of installers, chimney sweeps and maintenance businesses whose operatives have been trained and assessed in safety and good practice. The organisation produces the Hetas Guide which is a useful document for designers, specifiers, retailers, installers, maintainers or users of appliances and systems. It contains efficiency figures for appliances helping to determine whether a particular appliance can be installed in accordance with the Building Regulations. Meanwhile, approved retailers


can offer advice and consumer leaflets on a wide range of topics. Hetas says that in England, there are only two routes to legally install a domestic solid fuel, wood or biomass burning appliance. You can either use a registered installer who can self-


certify that the work complies with the Building Regulations or you can apply for a building notice. It is generally simpler and cheaper to use a Hetas-registered installer.


Hetas provides training courses for installers, chimney sweeps, retailers, specifiers, local authorities, building control experts and those involved in the wood fuel supply chain. For more information, Hetas can be contacted on 0845 634 5626. Email: info@hetas.co.uk. Website: www.hetas.co.uk.
