The focus of this consultation is the inclusion of air-to-air heat pumps, an important development in response to growing government interest in broadening the scope of low-carbon heating technologies.

The changes will ensure that requirements for air-to-air heat pumps are appropriate and fit for purpose and are as follows:

· MIS 3005-D – new clauses for design requirements for air-to-air heat pump systems

· MCS 007 – new (amended) criterion to the existing requirements in MCS 007 for air-to-air products

MCS now invites comments and feedback from stakeholders on the proposed updates. Submit your response to consultations@mcscertified.com before the consultation closes at 5.00pm on Monday 15 September 2025.
