Benchmark standard

The Benchmark initiative is a code of practice
to encourage the correct installation,
commissioning and servicing of domestic
central heating appliances and system
equipment.
A "checklist" is dispatched with every appliance and can be found
towards the back of the Installation, Commissioning and Servicing
Instructions. This is a vital document that needs to be completed by the
installer at the time of installation. It confirms that the appliance has
Commercial Boiler Series – 6720814333 (2019/05)
been installed and commissioned according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
The service record provides space for the recording of regular servicing
of the appliance/heating system and this can become a valuable
document when, for example, you wish to sell the property. The service
record will show a potential purchaser that the heating system has
received regular professional maintenance and servicing during its
lifetime.
The Benchmark initiative aims to:
• Raise standards among professional installers.
• Build and maintain high safety standards in the industry.
• Improve customer satisfaction levels.
• Make a contribution to the nation's commitment to climate change.
