Harnitek’s air source heat pumps have passed CE and ERP certification on April 16, 2021. The full models include 6kw, 9kw, 12kw and 45kw units (with or without 250L water tank).

Attaining these two important certifications makes people pay much more attention to Harnitek’s products. It’s good news for Harnitek itself and its partners since this series of heat pumps are becoming more competitive in the global market.

What are ErP and CE？
ErP stands for Energy-related Products. ErP is a European Union (EU) directive aimed at improving energy efficiency and performance standards of products.
On commercial products, the letters CE mean that the manufacturer of importer affirms the goods conformity with European health, safety and environmental protection standards.
To obtain the CE mark, manufacturers must attain ErP certification under the European Union’s ErP directive.

Why are ErP and CE certification important？

The ErP directive will eventually affect all products that have an environmental impact during their life. ErP comprises two directives, Ecodesign and Energy Labelling, that will help the EU achieve its 20-20-20 target to reduce energy use by 20 per cent and increase the share of renewable energies by 20 per cent by 2020.
CE certification is a passport for products to enter the European Union and European Free Trade Zone countries. Furthermore, it is a commitment of enterprises to consumers, increasing consumers’ trust in the products and decreasing the likelihood of their failure in the European market.

CE and ErP are the compulsory access certifications to the European market, which constitutes the most fundamental assurance of Harnitek’s products’ circulation. Generally speaking, the attainment of these two certifications can help Harnitek to provide customers with further assurance concerning the safety and quality of Harnitek’s air source heat pumps.
