Full title and description

SP 60.13330.2020 — Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (СНиП 41‑01‑2003). A Russian set of rules for design, installation, commissioning and operation of heating, ventilation and air‑conditioning systems in buildings and structures, consolidating requirements for thermal comfort, indoor air quality, energy efficiency, safety and fire‑related provisions.

Abstract

This document (СП 60.13330.2020) updates and replaces the previous edition on heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems and establishes mandatory and recommended technical requirements for HVAC systems in new and existing buildings in the Russian Federation. It covers terminology, design principles, calculation methods, installation and commissioning rules, operational requirements and selected fire‑safety provisions related to HVAC installations.

• Edition / version: SP 60.13330.2020 (2020 edition) — replaces SP 60.13330.2016.
• Number of pages: Approximately 103 pages (typical publisher copies list 103 pages).

Scope

Applies to the design, installation, commissioning and operation of heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems for residential, public, administrative, commercial and many categories of industrial buildings. The rules set requirements for system selection and layout, minimum ventilation and heating performance, air filtration and protection of outdoor air intake points, energy‑efficiency measures, hygiene and indoor air quality, and specific provisions tied to fire safety and continued operation of certain equipment during emergencies.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and terms specific to HVAC design and operation as harmonized with related GOSTs and SP documents.
• Design bases: climatic data, indoor environmental targets, air change and airflow rate rules for different room types.
• Heating system selection, distribution and control requirements for buildings.
• Ventilation and air‑conditioning system design, ducting, fans, air treatment (filtration, humidification, dehumidification) and air distribution rules.
• Requirements for placement and protection of outdoor air intake devices (including restrictions to avoid contamination from evaporative equipment and other sources).
• Energy efficiency and thermal performance measures, calculation methodologies and commissioning checks.
• Installation, inspection, maintenance and operational documentation requirements.
• Fire‑safety related provisions for HVAC (fire dampers, smoke control, requirements for equipment that must remain operational in fire scenarios).

Typical use and users

Used by HVAC designers and engineers, building services consultants, architects, project managers, construction contractors, commissioning engineers, building owners/operators and regulatory bodies responsible for ensuring compliance with Russian building and safety regulations.
