HPA launches annual service checklists T
The checklists are designed to be a resource for situations where manufacturer- specifi c guidance on service and maintenance checks is unavailable.
he Heat Pump Association (HPA) has launched new air-, ground-, and water-to-water heat pump annual service checklists developed by its Technical
Working Group. These checklists outline the recommended minimum annual service checks for heat pump systems and provide valuable guidance for those working in the sector. The checklists are designed to be a resource for situations where manufacturer-specifi c guidance on service and maintenance checks is unavailable. Whilst not intended to replace manufacturer guidelines, the HPA checklists are a useful reference point for reviewing the eff ective operation and longevity of air-to-water, ground, and water-source heat pumps. By outlining fundamental service practices, they aim to enhance consistency and reliability across the sector. Commenting on the release, Tony Lathey, Chair of
the HPA Technical Working Group said: ‘The Heat Pump Association is committed to improving standards and providing clear, practical guidance to the sector. These annual service checklists are the result of collaborative eff orts from leading industry experts. They set a baseline for best practices, supporting installers in servicing and maintaining hydronic heat pumps eff ectively, in the absence of manufacturer-specifi c guidance.’ This initiative is part of the HPA’s ongoing eff orts to support the sector as it scales up to meet the increasing
