This revision of PAS 2030:2014 specifies requirements for the installation of energy efficiency measures (EEM) in an existing building (not new build) and now includes definitive requirements for the design content to be expected and validated, by installers as well as the methods, processes and procedures to be employed in their installation, commissioning and handover.

This PAS continues to set out requirements for the installation of EEM in existing buildings used for both dwelling and non-dwelling purposes and is intended for use by any entity undertaking the installation of any products and/or systems designed to improve the energy efficiency of such buildings.

As with previous editions, this PAS includes requirements in respect of installation processes, process management and service provision and includes criteria relating to installation methods, equipment, tools, product or system and material suitability, the commissioning of installed measures and the training, skills and competence of the people undertaking such installation. In addition, this edition of the PAS includes information provided to assist installers to fulfil their responsibility to ensure the effective co-functioning of EEM installed in the same building.

This PAS is constituted of core requirements to be met by any entity claiming conformance to it, supplemented by Annexes setting out supplementary requirements for each included measure type.

This PAS requires claims of conformance to be in respect of the core requirements and all Annexes relevant to the installation to be undertaken by the claiming entity. The entity is also required to identify whether the claim is on the basis of self-assessment, other party assessment or independent third party validation and to differentiate between installation undertaken on the basis of an installer provided EEM design and that undertaken in accordance with an EEM design provided by an independent third party.

Annex A provides detail of the PAS 2030 measure specific Annex structure and its relationship to the list of specified measures and includes information to assist installers to fulfil their responsibility for ensuring the correct functional relationship between EEM installed in the same building.

Annexes B, C & D provide specific requirements relating to particular energy efficiency measures for application by installers undertaking installation of those measures. These Annexes also include additional requirements in respect of the provision of information to customers.

Annex E identifies the points of substantive change between PAS 2030:2014 and PAS 2030:2017.

Annex F sets out guidance on the use and application of PAS 2030:2017.

Annex G provides an example installation project information collation form that can be copied and used by installers to assist demonstration of their compliance with this PAS.

This PAS does not include requirements relating to the certification of PAS 2030 compliance by independent third parties, which subject is covered by PAS 2031:2017, developed in conjunction with this PAS.
