Series of Technical Guidelines developed by IDAE, the Spanish Institute for Energy Diversification and Saving, with the objective of increasing energy efficiency of the thermal installations in buildings. These documents are addressed to designers, installers, maintainers, inspectors and users of thermal installations of buildings, and have been recognized as official documents of the Regulation of Thermal Installations in Buildings (RITE). This new regulation establishes the requirements for achieving thermal and hygienic welfare through heating, air conditioning and domestic hot water, and for rationalizing the use of energy. There are 22 guidelines addressing heating, cooling and water heating installations.
