What does the AECO certify?
AECOs certify the application of new technology in elevator components, sub-systems, or entire elevators as safe in accordance with A17.7/CSA B44.7. The AECO issues a certificate of conformance based on a specific scope to assure that Global Essential Safety Requirements are met. Components and sub-systems will be certified for use in specific applications, while entire elevator systems will be certified based on precise manufacturing specifications and replacement parts. The Code Compliance Document will be developed as part of the AECO certification process and will include maintenance, repair, and inspection directions for the component, sub-system, or elevator being certified.
