Derbyshire SAP Calculations
We provide SAP calculations in Derbyshire for new builds, conversions, and extensions, covering both the design and as-built stages of your project.
What Are SAP Calculations?
SAP calculations are essential for assessing the energy performance of residential buildings in Derbyshire. This process produces a Predicted Energy Assessment (PEA) and an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), demonstrating that your property complies with Part L of the Building Regulations.
The SAP methodology evaluates a building’s energy efficiency, rating it on a scale from 1 to 100+. It estimates energy usage, carbon dioxide emissions, and the costs of heating, lighting, and hot water. With a SAP assessment, homeowners and developers can create more sustainable, energy-efficient homes, reducing environmental impact and operational costs.
When Are SAP Calculations Necessary?
New builds, conversions, and certain extensions require these calculations for compliance. It is crucial to demonstrate that your property meets the carbon emissions and fabric performance standards outlined in Part L of the Building Regulations. Obtaining SAP calculations early in the process ensures your project meets the necessary energy efficiency standards. Your building control officer will require both your SAP report and EPC to approve your building.
SAP Calculation Stages
A SAP assessment occurs in two key stages:
- Design Stage Assessment: This stage evaluates the building’s energy performance during the planning phase, ensuring it meets required standards before construction begins.
- As-Built Stage Assessment: This final stage verifies that the completed construction complies with the design specifications and energy performance standards.
What We Need to Get Started
A site visit isn’t necessary for SAP calculations. Instead, we’ll need your project drawings, including floor plans, elevations, cross-sections, and site plans. We’ll also require construction specifications, which include details on materials, insulation, windows, and doors. Information on the building services will also be necessary, such as ventilation, lighting, main heating, hot water, and renewables.
Once we receive the required information, we’ll complete your reports within 72 hours.
Why Choose Us?
We have an experienced team that is well-versed in all areas of SAP assessments and will work closely with you throughout the process to help you achieve regulatory compliance. Whether you’re planning a new build or making changes to an existing property, our experts are ready to assist you and will support you every step of the way to ensure your property meets the required efficiency targets.
