Verifications HTM 03-01 Part B
An annual assessment of a ventilation system’s performance must be undertaken in accordance with HTM 03-01. The verification process is a way of ‘verifying’ (confirming) the performance of a ventilation system, ensuring the system is functioning to an acceptable performance level and is ‘fit for purpose.’ A verification is required annually at a minimum but in some circumstances may need to be carried out more frequently.
