COMMISSION DELEGATED DIRECTIVE (EU) 2026/74
of 12 January 2026
amending Annex II to Directive (EU) 2024/1799 of the European Parliament and of the Council promoting the repair of goods to include domestic local space heaters as provided in Commission Regulation (EU) 2024/1103 as regards ecodesign requirements for local space heaters and separate related controls
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Directive (EU) 2024/1799 of the European Parliament and the Council of 13 June 2024 on common rules promoting the repair of goods and amending Regulation (EU) 2017/2394 and Directives (EU) 2019/771 and (EU) 2020/1828 (1), and in particular Article 5(9) thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Directive (EU) 2024/1799 imposes an obligation on manufacturers to repair the goods listed in Annex II for which repairability requirements have been established at EU level. |
|
(2) |
According to Article 5(9) of the Directive, the Commission should update Annex II at the latest within 12 months of the publication of EU legal acts containing additional relevant repairability requirements. The relevant requirements are the manufacturer’s obligation to provide spare parts during specified periods, easy disassembly and reassembly of a good for the purposes of repair, and the provision of repair-related information and/or tools. |
|
(3) |
On 18 April 2024, the Commission adopted Regulation (EU) 2024/1103 (2) on ecodesign requirements for local space heaters and separate related controls and repealing Commission Regulation (EU) 2015/1188 (3). This regulation lays down repairability requirements for domestic local space heaters. It contains provisions aimed at improving the repairability of these goods, such as the obligation for manufacturers to make available certain spare parts for at least 10 years after placing the last unit of the model concerned on the market. It also sets requirements regarding access to repair and maintenance information for repairers. Regulation (EU) 2024/1103 therefore contains relevant repairability requirements for domestic local space heaters. |
|
(4) |
Annex II to Directive (EU) 2024/1799 should therefore be amended to include domestic local space heaters, |
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:
Article 1
