SAP Calculations Leicester
Our standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) is the UK Government's recommended method system for measuring the energy rating of residential dwellings. Route5 can offer a full energy assessment service in Leicester which essentially includes guidance on both fuel reduction methods and how to make designs more economic to achieve your intended energy ratings.
Here at Route5 we are able to offer SAP Calculations for new built homes, conversions, extensions or RdSAP’s for existing homes throughout the Leicestershire area and the earlier we start the better! DER/TER calculations need to be submitted to building control before work starts on site, however getting them done further in advance will also allow for the energy efficiency of the dwelling to be considered whilst it is being designed.
Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) Calculations Leicester
New Constructions
In 1995 the obligation in Leicester that all new dwellings have SAP home energy rating calculations prepared began. Its is a monitored regulation that you demonstrate to the local building control bodies that the proposed dwellings meet the standards of the prevailing building regulations with regards to the conservation of fuel and power.
Extensions/Change Of Use
In addition SAP calculations may also be required in order to support building regulations applications for existing dwellings – for example, when an extension is being added, or when a building undergoes a material change of use or material alteration.
