Type testing of wood stoves, pellet stoves and inset appliances

Danish Technological Institute offers type testing and quality assurance of wood stoves, inset appliances, pellet stoves and slow heat release appliances.

Danish Technological Institute is your all-inclusive partner when it comes to the necessary international and national tests of stoves and inset appliances.

Our laboratory meets standards throughout Europe (incl. Flamme Verte) and also the US-EPA measurement needed for entering the American market. Our laboratory is accredited for type testing by DANAK, notified body (NB no. 1235) and acknowledged by DIN CERTCO. Furthermore, we take part in the standardization work for wood stoves and boilers at European level and we offer our customers counselling regarding requirements and standards.

 

Laboratoriet udfører følgende typeprøvninger efter følgende standarder og forordninger:

  • EN16510-1
  • EN16510-2-1 (freestanding wood stove)

"The practical knowledge and advice that I have gained at DTI has been essential for our development of stoves with proper design elements and combustion.

Testing laboratories have the same equipment wherever you go – but at DTI we discuss solutions, and this is the reason why we keep coming back to DTI for testing"
