Full title and description

STB PD ISO TR 16822-2016 — national publication / PD designation of ISO/TR 16822:2016, "Building environment design — List of test procedures for heating, ventilating, air‑conditioning and domestic hot water equipment related to energy efficiency". The document lists and organises test and rating procedures used to determine energy performance of space‑conditioning and water‑heating equipment.

Abstract

This technical report provides a consolidated list of test and rating procedures applicable to heating, ventilating and air‑conditioning (HVAC) equipment and domestic hot water systems where energy efficiency assessment is required. It is intended as a reference catalogue that helps manufacturers, test laboratories, regulators and standards developers identify relevant test methods and rating procedures for different types of equipment and applications.

Scope

ISO/TR 16822:2016 scopes a compendium of existing test and rating procedures relevant to energy efficiency assessment of space‑conditioning and domestic hot water equipment. The report is not itself a test method; rather it lists and organises established procedures so users can locate appropriate standards and test methods for specific equipment types and rating purposes.

Key topics and requirements

• Catalogue of test and rating procedures for heating, ventilation, air‑conditioning and domestic hot water equipment.
• Coverage of procedures applicable to space‑conditioning and water‑heating systems used in buildings.
• Organisation of procedures to help identify appropriate methods for different equipment categories and energy‑efficiency assessments.
• Reference orientation — points users to the normative standards and test methods used for performance verification and rating.
• Intended to support manufacturers, test laboratories, building designers and regulators in selecting consistent test/rating approaches.

Typical use and users

Used as a reference index by HVAC manufacturers, independent test laboratories, certification bodies, energy auditors, building services engineers, standards developers and national bodies adopting or cross‑referencing ISO test methods. It helps stakeholders quickly locate relevant test/rating procedures when preparing test programmes, conformity assessments or regulatory specifications.

Related standards

Related to other ISO standards and technical reports produced by ISO/TC 205 and by technical committees covering test methods and performance of HVAC and water‑heating equipment. Users typically consult ISO/TR 16822 together with the specific normative test standards and rating methods referenced for each equipment type (e.g., established ISO test standards and regional/national test methods used for performance verification and energy labelling).

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO/TR 16822:2016 is a technical report that lists and organises test and rating procedures for assessing the energy efficiency of heating, ventilating, air‑conditioning and domestic hot water equipment. The user title "STB PD ISO TR 16822-2016" indicates a national PD publication/adoption of that ISO technical report.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers a catalogue of existing test and rating procedures applicable to space‑conditioning and water‑heating equipment, and provides a reference orientation to help users find the appropriate method for a given equipment type or rating purpose. It does not itself define new test methods.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: HVAC and water‑heating equipment manufacturers, test laboratories, conformity assessment and certification bodies, energy auditors, building services engineers, standards developers and national/regional regulators.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: ISO/TR 16822 was published in July 2016 (Edition 1). Users should check national catalogues or ISO/TC 205 publications for any later revisions, replacements or additional related deliverables when deciding which test or rating procedure to apply.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: It is a technical report produced under ISO/TC 205 (Building environment design) and functions as a companion/reference document to the suite of ISO standards and technical reports addressing test methods, performance and energy efficiency of building services equipment.
