Description

The Verification Method H1/VM3 can be used for HVAC systems in commercial buildings. It contains requirements for:

  • a) Air conditioning system controls, and
  • b) Mechanical ventilation system controls, and
  • c) Fans, and
  • d) Ductwork insulation and sealing, and
  • e) Pumps, and
  • f) Pipework insulation, and
  • g) Space heating, and
  • h) Refrigerant chillers, and
  • i) Unitary air conditioning equipment, and
  • j) Heat rejection equipment, and
  • k) Facilities for energy monitoring, and
  • l) Maintenance access.

The Verification Method H1/VM3 is one option that provides a means of establishing compliance with the performance criteria in Building Code clause H1.3.6.

Scope

The Verification Method H1/VM3 does not include requirements for:

  • a) HVAC systems that directly cool cold rooms or heat hot rooms (such as in a butcher’s shop, fruit storage rooms or in laboratories); or
  • b) HVAC systems that maintain specialised conditions for equipment or processes, where this is the main purpose of the HVAC system.

For these, compliance may be demonstrated using an alternative solution.
