Austest Laboratories has been awarded the contract for check testing swimming pool pumps by the Australian Government’s Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency.

The contract covers check testing of swimming pool pumps for compliance with AS 5102.1 and AS 5102.2. Pool pumps participating in the Voluntary Labelling Program that have made claims of star ratings will be verified for accuracy. A non-conforming product is one for which the energy rating, as determined after the check testing process, is a lower number of stars than indicated on the energy label.

A list of pool pumps participating in the Voluntary Labelling Program can be found at www.energyrating.gov.au/products-themes/other/swimming-pool-pumps/voluntary-labelling/.

Austest Laboratories also provides accredited compliance testing to determine the star rating of swimming pool pumps (three samples required) for manufacturers or importers wishing to label their products and list them under the Voluntary Labelling Program.
