SAP Calculations
Barn Conversion SAP in Gloucestershire

The brief

  • UK Building Compliance completed an L1B SAP Calculation on this barn conversion in Gloucestershire
  • Our Elmhurst certified consultants can discuss the requirements to help you meet all the Building Regulation Standards

The process

  • Fabric efficiency targets were met through low u-values of all external walls, floors and roofs

  • Low glazing U-values also helped to achieve fabric efficiency targets

  • Emissions targets were met by installing an air source heat pump rather than a traditional gas boiler

The results

  • SAP RESULTS

Notional Dwelling Emission Rate (DER)

Notional Dwelling Fabric Energy Efficiency (DFEE)
