Water Efficiency Calculations
Water efficiency calculations predict water consumption in line with Part G of The Building Regulations. Generally, you’ll carry out water efficiency calculations at design stage, as part of your SAP Calculations. UKBC can arrange water efficiency calculations within 5–10 working days from when you call our team.
Overheating Analysis
UKBC are accredited by ELMHURST ENERGY to carry out overheating analysis as part of the SAP calculations and assessment process.
Your overheating analysis should take place at design stage, preferably as part of your SAP Calculations or SBEM calculations. This will make sure your building complies with the regulations from the beginning.
Thermal Bridging Calculations
You are likely to lose heat through weak points in your insulation. These areas include corners, where the roof meets the walls, or where an element with higher thermal conductivity penetrates the insulation of your building. UKBC are ELMHURST ENERGY certified to conduct thermal bridging calculations and ensure that your building is compliant with building regulation standards.
