Compliance and transparency made simple.

The Danish Safety Technology Authority has introduced stricter requirements for consumer information about heat distribution meters. The new executive order replaces the previous control system with a mandatory control manual. As a landlord, administrator, or housing association, you must therefore provide residents with access to detailed information—from radiator brand and size to scale factors and meter types. 

With ista's digital control manual, all necessary information is gathered online. This ensures that data is always accurate, up to date, and fully compliant with legislation.

The smart shortcut to full compliance.

Documentation gathered in one place.

The new rules require that residents be given access to detailed information about their heating system, including: 

  • Radiator brand and model
  • Radiator size (length, height, depth)
  • Radiator heat output
  • Brand and type of heat cost allocator
  • Mounting point
  • Scale factors used

The aim is to ensure that every resident can check the basis for their heating bill. With Ista's control manual, all information is gathered in one place: accurate, up-to-date, and available 24/7.

Easy compliance with ista.

Our control manual makes it easier to comply with legislation. With istaOnline, you always have access to the necessary information about heat cost allocators and can share it with residents as needed.

You also receive legal support for heating and consumption bills, as well as assistance with complaints. We take care of ongoing updates, administration, and service so that you can focus on the most important tasks.

When your control manual is connected to ista online, it is automatically updated in our system – so that data is always correct and available.

Full compliance without the administrative burden.

We take care of the practicalities so that you don't have to keep track of which, or when, meters need checking. All meters are checked at an accredited metrology institute and replaced if necessary.

The checks are carried out in full compliance with legislation, including the Danish Safety Technology Authority's regulations on metrological control of heat consumption meters. The result is that your meters always comply with current legal requirements.

Good to know: Consumer protection is guaranteed by law. Therefore, control systems and control manuals remain mandatory for both non-rotary water meters (cold and hot water) and heat energy meters, regardless of the replacement method.

The picture shows a row of narrow but tall terraced houses. The terraced houses have alternating grey and white façades. On the left you can see a house with a white façade and on the far right a house with a grey façade. They are also always built at different heights, so that there are never two houses of the same height next to each other. All the houses have a large square window front in the upper half, consisting of 30 small square windows. The window front of the fourth house from the right is the only one covered by a blind. All of the houses have four individual windows under the fronts, with two on the left and two on the right below each other. Above the houses you can see the almost completely cloudless blue sky. In the foreground in front of the houses you can see a lawn with many bushes and a total of four trees, three of which can be seen on the left at the edge of the picture and one tree on the right.
