Why Are TM44 Inspections Important?

TM44 inspections are essential for buildings with air conditioning systems exceeding 12kW, ensuring both legal compliance and system optimisation. Here’s why they’re important:

Legal Compliance

TM44 inspections are required by law under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) and must be conducted every five years. Non-compliance can result in fines of up to £300 per offence. Having a valid TM44 inspection ensures you meet legal obligations and avoid financial penalties.

Energy Efficiency

In addition to regulatory compliance, TM44 inspections help identify inefficiencies in your air conditioning system. Poor control settings or outdated equipment can significantly increase energy consumption. The inspection provides tailored recommendations to improve efficiency, helping you lower your energy bills and reduce waste.

Environmental Impact

Improving the energy efficiency of your air conditioning system also has environmental benefits. TM44 inspections help to reduce your system’s carbon footprint by identifying ways to decrease energy usage. This helps the environment and supports your business’s sustainability goals.

Maintenance and Longevity

Regular TM44 inspections can also extend the lifespan of your equipment. By identifying potential faults early, the inspection allows you to address small issues before they lead to costly breakdowns, ensuring your system operates smoothly for longer.
