Independent Ventilation Validation is now mandatory for all new dwellings under building regulations. We provide certified, third-party validation to confirm that installed systems deliver effective, compliant ventilation, ensuring healthier indoor air and peace of mind at completion.
We check your mechanical ventilation system against design specifications to confirm it has been installed correctly.
Using calibrated equipment, we measure extract and supply rates in each relevant room to ensure adequate ventilation is being delivered.
We verify that the system complies with the performance levels set out in TGD Part F of the Building Regulations.
You’ll receive a full verification report that can be submitted to your Assigned Certifier or Building Control for sign-off.

Below are answers to common questions about our services, processes, and regulatory requirements.
Yes. Since 2019, independent ventilation validation is required for all new dwellings in Ireland under Part F of the Building Regulations.
All mechanical ventilation systems, including Mechanical Extract Ventilation (MEV) and Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR), must be verified.
After the system has been fully installed, balanced, and commissioned – but before handover. Early planning ensures the test doesn’t delay completion.
Only certified independent verifiers, like BCD Energy, are qualified to carry out this assessment under current SEAI and regulatory guidelines.
We’ll provide detailed feedback and recommendations so installers can adjust the system to meet the required airflow rates before retesting.
