What you can record

  • Collector, store and controller identification
  • Circuit, instruments, pressure, fluid and protection findings on commissioning
  • Collector, mounting, shading, pump and controller observations on service
  • Maintenance, replacement work and relevant handover information

Follow the workflow

  1. Save your company and engineer details, then open the matching record in the certificate workspace.
  2. Enter the job details and the findings relevant to this visit. Save the draft if you need to return to it.
  3. Review the complete answers and capture the required engineer signature. With an active trial, subscription or access grant, issue the numbered A4 document.

Choose the stage of work

Start with commissioning or service, record the measurements and observations for that visit, then review and sign. Any external scheme reference must be authentic; creating an Essential record does not create an MCS certificate.

Inspect the finished document before you start

The fictional sample on this page is actual Essential output. Open it to check the equipment information, findings, notes and signature layout for this record. Longer records use additional A4 pages. Your own issued document takes the saved company and engineer details from your workspace.

Try the full paperwork package for seven days

Try the Essential package free for seven days, with no card details and up to two engineers. Confirm your email, save your real company details and start the trial from Your account. After seven days, a subscription is required for new numbered documents, PDFs and sending. Your saved work is preserved. One trial per company; changing email does not create a new entitlement.

Before you choose

Which solar thermal records are available?

There are separate service and commissioning records. The service record covers observations and maintenance; commissioning includes circuit, instrument, pressure, fluid and protection findings, with relevant handover information.

Does the PDF become an MCS certificate?

No. These are Essential work records. Any external scheme reference you enter must be authentic, and required scheme or manufacturer documentation must be completed separately.

Can I try the questions before subscribing?

Create a free account to save supported drafts. Issuing numbered customer documents and downloading their PDFs requires the Essential package or an applicable existing access grant. Public sample PDFs are fictional examples. An eligible company can also start a seven-day package trial without a card. The trial must be started explicitly after email confirmation and company setup.

Are these official scheme certificates?

These are original Essential work records. They do not replace required manufacturer, Benchmark, scheme or other external documents. The engineer remains responsible for competence, the work and the information recorded.
