The references of those standards are published in the C series of the Official Journal of the European Union (4) . ---|--- (4) | The revision of those standards resulted in the adoption of revised harmonised standards EN 1-2:2025 – Residential liquid fuel burning appliances – Part 2: Flued oil stoves with vaporizing burners; EN 16510-2-5:2025 – Residential solid fuel burning appliances – Part 2-5: Slow heat release appliances; and EN 16510-2-10:2025 – Residential solid fuel burning appliances – Part 2-10: Multi-firing sauna stoves fired by natural wood logs. ---|--- (5) | On the basis of the request set out in Implementing Decision C(2021) 5359 as amended by Implementing Decision C(2025) 455, CEN adopted new harmonised standard EN 16510-2-7:2025 – Residential solid fuel burning appliances – Part 2-7: Combination appliances fired by wood logs and pellets. ---|--- (6) | The Commission has assessed whether the three revised harmonised standards and the new harmonised standard adopted by CEN comply with the request set out in Implementing Decision C(2021) 5359 and with Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. ---|--- (7) | The three harmonised standards revised and the new harmonised standard adopted by CEN are in conformity with Implementing Decision C(2021) 5359 as amended by Implementing Decision C(2025) 455 and Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. It is therefore appropriate to publish the references of those standards in the Official Journal of the European Union. ---|--- (8) | Considering that Residential solid fuel burning appliances – Combination appliances fired by wood logs and pellets are covered by the scope of two standards, EN 13240:2001 Roomheaters fired by solid fuel – Requirements and test methods (including its amendments) and EN 14785:2006 – Residential space heating appliances fired by wood pellets – Requirements and test methods, and that they were CE marked in accordance with both of them, it should be clarified that these harmonised standards remain applicable to these products until the end of the coexistence period of EN 16510-2-7:2025 as regards the obligations established under Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. ---|--- (9) | By letter M/122 of 6 July 1998, the Commission made a request to the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) for the drafting of harmonised standards in support of Council Directive 89/106/EEC (5) (‘the mandate’). The mandate allows for the adoption of harmonised standards drafted on its basis, in particular for permanent anchor devices and safety hooks. ---|--- (10) | On the basis of the mandate, CEN drafted a new harmonised standard EN 17235:2024 for permanent anchor devices and safety hooks. ---|--- (11) | Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/695 (6) establishes the threshold levels and classes of performance for permanent anchor devices and safety hooks applicable to products covered by EN 17235:2024 Permanent anchor devices and safety hooks. ---|--- (12) | The Commission has assessed whether EN 17235:2024 is in conformity with the mandate, Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/695 and Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. ---|--- (13) | The harmonised standard EN 17235:2024 adopted by CEN is in conformity with the relevant mandate, Delegated Regulation (EU) 2025/695 and Regulation (EU) No 305/2011. It is therefore appropriate to publish the reference of that standard in the Official Journal of the European Union. ---|--- (14) | Annex I to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/451 (7) lists the references of harmonised standards drafted in support of Regulation (EU) No 305/2011.
