Dorset SAP Reports

THE BRIEF

UK Building Compliance completed SAP Reports on two new build plots in Dorset
These were L1A Design Calculations, which include a Predicted EPC Rating
We recommend you commission your SAP calculations for new builds at design stage because if your building is struggling to meet requirements, our team can advise you on how to improve
Our STROMA Accredited Consultants work with all of our clients us to ensure that your new build project can meet all of the Part L Building Regulations

Plot 1 Dwelling Fabric Energy Efficiency (DFEE)

34.9

Plot 2 Dwelling Fabric Energy Efficiency (DFEE)

PASS

A largely significant figure below the requirement between the DER/DFEE and TER/TFEE was achieved, therefore passing the minimum requirements
The predicted EPC scored an Energy Rating of B, meaning the building would be highly energy efficient
