Durability of wood and wood-based products - Criteria for hot air processes for curative uses against wood destroying organisms
This Technical Report specifies the minimum performance requirements for hot air treatment intended for application against specific classes of wood attacking organism. It specifies the minimum performance criteria to be achieved by hot air treatment.
NOTE Until now sufficient practical experience and results of scientific tests are available only for heat treatments using hot air as a medium to increase the temperature inside building components up to a threshold lethal to wood destroying organisms. Therefore, this document is restricted to hot air treatments although other measures like, for example, radio waves or electric blankets may be useful means for limited and special applications.
This document is applicable only to hot air treatment, in so far as it is intended to cure attack by wood destroying beetles and the dry rot fungus (Serpula lacrymans).
This Technical Report is not applicable to eradicate an attack by termites or by fungi other than the dry rot fungus (Serpula lacrymans).
Hot air treatment as described in this document does not provide subsequent preventive protection against attack by wood-destroying organisms.
This document does not define the equipment, techniques or precise operation procedures required to achieve the parameters given in Clauses 4 and 5 for any set of practical circumstances. Specifications for particular practical circumstances have to be developed on a case by case basis by expert advisers/consultants.
Dauerhaftigkeit von Holz und Holzprodukten - Kriterien für Heißluftverfahren zur Bekämpfung von Holz zerstörenden Organismen
Dieser Technische Bericht legt die Mindestleistungsanforderungen an eine Heißluftbehandlung fest, die zur Anwendung gegen verschiedene Gruppen von Holz zerstörenden Organismen vorgesehen ist. Er legt die Mindestkriterien fest, die bei einer Heißluftbehandlung erfüllt werden müssen.
ANMERKUNG Bisher liegen ausreichende praktische Erfahrung sowie Ergebnisse aus wissenschaftlichen Versuchen nur für Hitzebehandlungen vor, die Heißluft als Medium nutzen, um die Temperatur innerhalb von Bauteilen über die für Holz zerstörende Organismen tödliche Schwelle zu erhöhen. Daher ist dieses Dokument auf eine Heißluftbehandlung beschränkt, obwohl andere Maßnahmen, wie zum Beispiel Mikrowellen oder elektrische Heizmatten für begrenzte und spezielle Anwendungen, nützliche Mittel sein können.
Dieses Dokument gilt nur für eine Heißluftbehandlung, die vorgesehen ist, einen Befall durch Holz zerstörende Käfer und den Echten Hausschwamm (Serpula lacrymans) zu bekämpfen.
Dieser Technische Bericht gilt nicht für die Bekämpfung eines Befalls durch Termiten oder andere Pilze als der Echte Hausschwamm.
Eine Heißluftbehandlung, wie sie in diesem Dokument beschrieben wird, bewirkt keinen nachfolgenden vorbeugenden Schutz gegen Holz zerstörende Organismen.
Dieses Dokument legt keine Ausrüstungen, Techniken oder genauen Durchführungsverfahren fest, die notwendig sind, um die in den Abschnitten 4 und 5 festgelegten Bedingungen unter allen möglichen praktischen Umständen zu erfüllen. Festlegungen für bestimmte praktische Umstände müssen von Fall zu Fall durch Experten/Fachberater entwickelt werden.
Durabilité du bois et des matériaux dérivés du bois - Critères s'appliquant aux procédés à air chaud à usages curatifs contre les organismes lignivores
Le présent Rapport technique spécifie les exigences minimales de performance s'appliquant au traitement par air chaud destiné à être appliqué contre des catégories spécifiques d'organismes lignivores. Il spécifie les critères minimaux de performance à remplir par le traitement par air chaud.
NOTE A l'heure actuelle, l’expérience pratique et les résultats d'essais scientifiques dont on dispose ne sont applicables que pour les traitements à la chaleur utilisant l'air chaud comme moyen pour faire augmenter la température à l'intérieur des composants d'une construction jusqu'à un niveau létal pour les organismes lignivores. Par conséquent, le présent document est limité aux traitements par air chaud, bien que d'autres mesures, comme par exemple l'utilisation d'ondes radio ou de dispositifs électriques, puissent s'avérer utiles pour des applications limitées et particulières.
Le présent document ne s'applique qu'au traitement par air chaud, dans la mesure où il est appliqué à la lutte contre les dégâts causés par les insectes à larves xylophages et par la mérule (Serpula lacrymans).
Le présent Rapport technique ne s'applique pas à la lutte contre les termites ou contre des champignons autres que la mérule (Serpula lacrymans).
Le traitement par air chaud décrit dans le présent document ne permet pas d'assurer ensuite une protection préventive du bois contre les organismes lignivores.
Le présent document ne définit pas l'équipement, les techniques ou les modes opératoires permettant de satisfaire aux paramètres indiqués aux articles 4 et 5 dans toutes les circonstances pratiques. Les spécifications s'appliquant à des circonstances pratiques particulières doivent être élaborées au cas par cas par des conseillers/consultants experts.

Foreword
This document (FprCEN/TR 15003:2012) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 38 “Durability
of wood and derived materials”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the Technical Committee Approval.
This document will supersede CEN/TS 15003:2005.
This Technical Report gives the criteria for hot air treatment for curative uses against wood destroying
organisms. European Standard EN 14128 concerns the criteria for curative wood preservatives as determined
by biological tests.

Introduction
This document should be used in conjunction with EN 14128 which describes the performance requirements
for curative wood preservatives as determined by biological tests.
The need for hot air treatment for curative use against wood destroying organisms depends upon a careful
diagnosis by expert, qualified specialists to determine the precise causes of the damage to be rectified. This
should include the type of wood attacking organisms involved and in the case of beetles whether they are
considered to be active, the environmental circumstances, the type of wood involved, the nature of the
building or construction, and the structural and physical significance of the timber which is damaged or at risk
of being damaged.
In particular the need for hot air treatment for curative use against the true dry rot fungus (Serpula lacrymans)
should include the precise identification of the dry rot fungus, the environmental circumstances, especially the
source and nature of any wetting, and the nature of the building or construction, including the masonry in
which the dry rot fungus is present.
NOTE So far, no reliable methods exist to determine whether the true dry rot fungus in a building construction is dead
or still alive, including dormant stage.
Hot air treatment for curative use should be used in an integrated way as part of a carefully prescribed
strategy involving a series of actions appropriate to the particular circumstances of each case. Associated
physical measures involving appropriate building works to remedy ingress of moisture and to dry out any
dampness can be an essential prerequisite for the use of any process for curative use. Expert diagnosis
should take into account all regional, practical, environmental, economical, safety and any other factors which
may be relevant to the prescriptive decisions to be taken.
If properly done hot air treatment does not influence the mechanical properties of the timber involved.
However, the temperature usually applied can influence materials other than wood.
It is not the purpose of this document to provide a specification, or even guidance in developing specifications
for remedial work to eradicate wood destroying organisms. It is intended to guide specifiers, users and others
in selecting and specifying hot air treatment on the basis of its effectiveness as demonstrated in accordance
with the criteria given.
