Verification of the Meters

In Denmark, a verification system is a statutory requirement for almost all meter types. A verification system is a system intended to ensure that the correct measuring scales and liquid ampoules are used for calculating the heating consumption. The measuring scales and liquid ampoules must correspond to the standard applying to the meters and the directions provided by the meter supplier for the meters. The verification system must also be described and documented in a verification manual.

The purpose of a verification system is to give tenants and consumers proof that the meters used for cost allocation function correctly. In addition, the verification system has protected many landlords from lost cases at the Rent Tribunal and the Tenant Appeal Tribunal, as it has enabled them to document to the authorities that the meter system was working correctly. In addition, heating suppliers are obliged to have a verification system for all meters measuring the heating consumption in the homes for which the supplier is responsible, otherwise a fine may be imposed.

Leave the verification system to Brunata

Brunata has a total of 15 years' experience of preparing verification systems for all meter types, as we have worked on this since the Act was passed in 1997. And our legal team keep a close eye on changes to the official regulations and new initiatives.

We makes it easy to manage a verification system, as we prepare a comprehensive electronic verification manual which meets the legal requirements and does not require annual updates on paper. We provide access to the verification manual online 24/7, so that an up-to-date copy can be printed out at any time if requested by the authorities.

After the statutory verification system has been etablished, we inform the residents of the property with the first subsequent consumption bill. We also take care of the statutory information to the residents if the verification system is changed.
