NCC Approved
NCC Badge of Approval for leisure accommodation vehicles
The National Caravan Council is currently the only agency in the UK inspecting holiday caravans. Its Badge of Approval scheme makes sure your holiday caravan is safe and that it complies with all relevant regulations and British and European legislation. A team of specialists will have made hundreds of different checks to ensure it complies with the European Standard EN 1647 or the British Standard BS 3632. They will have checked and carefully examined:
- Gas and electrical installations
- Appliances, making sure they are suitable for a caravan
- Heating and water systems
- The caravan's weight and dimensions
- Ventilation and emergency exits
- and much more
New homes will have fire-resistant furnishings and fabrics where required and be fitted with smoke detectors and CO alarms. So a modern home is not just stylish - it is safe as well.
Make sure you look for the 'Approved' badge on the holiday home you're about to buy.
