Benchmark Commissioning Checklist

Please ensure that the installer has fully completed the Benchmark
Checklist on the inside back pages of the installation instructions supplied
with the product and that you have signed it to say that you have received
a full and clear explanation of its operation. The installer is legally required
to complete a commissioning checklist as a means of complying with the
appropriate Building Regulations (England and Wales).
All installations must be notified, by the installer, to Local Area Building
Control either directly or through a Competent Persons Scheme. A
Building Regulations Compliance Certificate will then be issued to the
customer who should, on receipt, write the Notification Number on the
Benchmark Checklist.
This product should be serviced annually to optimise its safety, efficiency
and performance. The service engineer should complete the relevant
section of the Benchmark Service Record in the Installation & Service
manual after each service.
The completed Benchmark Checklist & proof of annual servicing (where
applicable) will be required in the event of any warranty work.
