Solar Products Testing and Certification

We are an ISO 17025 accredited Testing Laboratory and an ISO 17065 accredited Certification Body for Solar products.

LabTest is the industry leader in assisting manufacturers with the evaluation of Solar Products for the North American and International markets. Accredited by Standards Council of Canada (SCC) as a Testing and Certification body for Canada and recognized by SRCC as a Testing Laboratory for the USA, LabTest provides Testing & Certification for the following Solar products:

Solar Domestic Hot Water (SDHW) systems

Solar Domestic Hot Water (SDHW) systems

This includes collectors as well as the water heater tank and all associated components needed to run and control each. The collector must be certified before the whole system can be qualified.

Solar Thermal Collectors

Collectors absorbing sunlight power and using it for the heating of water for domestic use. Collectors must be tested individually first, and then as part of the whole system.

Solar Thermal Collectors
Photovoltaic Modules/Panels

Photovoltaic Modules/Panels

An assembly of photo-voltaic cells that collects sunlight power and converts it into electricity. This includes “hybrid” systems that use Solar Thermal Collectors and PV Modules together, for the heating of water and production of usable electricity.

We needed SRCC collector certification and LabTest helped perform the tests to the required specifications. The completed test resulted in a certified collector.  LabTest staff went out of their way to make sure the test setup could be adapted for my needs. They made sure the test setup was working properly and to my expectations. They put in a lot of extra effort.
