HVAC Certification & Equipment Testing

HVAC testing and certification refer to the process of evaluating and verifying the performance, safety, and energy efficiency of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems and equipment. This is done to ensure that the systems and equipment meet the required standards and regulations for quality and safety.

HVAC Equipment testing involves testing HVACR equipment to ensure that it meets the required standards for performance, safety, and energy efficiency. This testing is typically done by independent testing laboratories, such as Intertek. Equipment that meets the required standards is given the ETL certification mark to indicate that it has been tested and certified.

HVAC testing and certification are important because they help ensure that HVAC systems and equipment are safe, reliable, and energy-efficient. They also help establish minimum standards for the HVAC industry and provide a way for consumers to identify qualified professionals and high-quality products.
