In this example, a building is served by a single system of more than 250kW capacity under single control with an additional air conditioning system rated at 100kW.
An air conditioning inspection on a system with a cooling capacity greater than 250kW should have been carried out by 4 January 2009. A revised air conditioning inspection report would be required every 5 years from the date of the initial inspection.
The building is served by a single system under single control < 250kW. In addition an air conditioning system of 100kW has been installed to serve the trading floor. The total under single control is >250kW. The first inspection must have been completed by 4 January 2009.
The occupants on the trading floor are using machines rather than solely running the process. Any additional air conditioning capacity, therefore, benefits the occupants and is included in the air conditioning capacity to be inspected.
