Danish Technological Institute offers type testing and quality assurance of wood stoves, inset appliances, pellet stoves and masonry appliances. The tests form the basis for CE marking, which is a requirement for selling on the European market.

All tests for Europe

We also offer all other types of testing necessary to comply with the various standards and requirements in Europe. This also includes specific requirements in Norway,  Italy, France, the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, as well as Smoke Control Areas in UK.

Laboratoriet udfører følgende typeprøvninger efter følgende standarder og forordninger:

  • EN16510-1
  • EN16510-2-1 (freestanding wood stove)
  • EN16510-2-2 (inset appliance)
  • EN16510-2-3 (cookers)
  • EN16510-2-5 (slow heat release appliance – in progress)
  • EN16510-2-6 (pellet stove)
  • EN16510-2-7 (hybrid appliance – in progress)
  • Ecodesign Regulation 2015/1185
  • Energy Label Regulation 2015/1186

All performance tests according to the above standards always include measurement of the following emissions: CO, OGC, NOx and PM.

In addition, we perform other measurements and tests:

  • Room Sealed appliance type CA, CM, CC, (EN16510-1)

  • Load Bearing Capacity test, (EN16510-1)

Norway and other Scandinavian countries

  • NS3058/59 (measurement of particle emissions for Norway)
  • Safety test against Norsk Brannmur
  • Nordic Swan label requirements

UK

  • DEFRA Smoke Control Areas for the UK

Germany

  • BImSchV (stage 2)
  • Blauer Engel testing

France

  • Flamme Verte testing & audit testing
  • Critt Bois audit testing (Fonds Air Bois)

Italy

  • Conto Termico or Certificato Ambientale in Italy, including issuance of the corresponding test certificate.

Austria

  • Testing for Austria (Art 15a)

Switzerland

  • Documentation as an integral part of type testing, for example for VKF in Switzerland

North America

  • US EPA test firings for the North American market (proof-of-concept particle measurements).

Market surveillance readiness test

Market surveillance is an integrated part of Ecodesign and may include verification of documentation and/or physical testing of whether the appliance complies with the Ecodesign requirements. We offer a review of documentation and testing of the appliance to assess whether it would pass a market surveillance check. Recommendations for any improvements are also included.
