Request for S.A.P. calculation. Dwelling details.

	Name
	Company
	Address
	Telephone number
	E-mail Address
	Project name
	Project type	New dwelling as designed New dwelling as built Existing dwelling - pre 2002 regulations Existing dwelling - 2002 regulations Existing dwelling - 2006 regulations Material change of use Material alteration to existing dwelling Extension to existing dwelling

	Select which SAP applies
	SAP 2001
	SAP 2005
	Do accredited construction details apply	Yes No
	Will the project be subject to a pressure test	Yes No

If you send me Building Regulations drawing - plans sections and elevations, I can take off all areas of the building elements, otherwise, please give details as required:
DIMENSIONS

	Ground floor area (sq.m.)		Ground floor average height in m. ( floor - ceiling)
	First floor area (sq.m.)		First floor average height in m. ( ceiling - ceiling)
	Second floor area (sq.m.)		Second floor average height in m. ( ceiling - ceiling)
	Third floor area (sq.m.)		Third floor average height in m. ( ceiling - ceiling)
	Living room area (sq.m.)

VENTILATION

	Select which best describes the construction (if no pressure test)	Masonry Steel or timber frame
	Select which best describes the ground floor (if no pressure test)	Solid or beam and block suspended timber (sealed) suspended timber (unsealed)
	Select which best describes the ventilation	Natural Mechanicalpositive input ventilation from loft) Mechanical (positive input ventilation from outside) Whole house mechanical extract ventilation Mechanical (no heat recovery) Mechanical (with heat recovery)
	Number of Chimneys
	Permeability

Note: Greater than 10 cu.m/sq.m@50 Pa is a fail, less than 5 is achievable if using accredited details. but if the test result is worse than the design permeability this could cause the project to fail at "as built" stage. 8 would be a reasonable design permeability.

	Number of flues
	Number of fans or passive vents
	Number of sides sheltered (default = 2) (if no pressure test)
	percentage windows draught stripped

If you know the U-value of the element you do not need to give any further description. If you need a U-value calculation done for a floor if is best if you complete the request for a U-value calculation by clicking the link.

	Walls Type 1 description
	Walls Type 2 description
	Roof Type 1 description
	Roof Type 2 description
	Ground floor description
	Any other element

	Walls Type 1 area (sq.m.)		Walls Type 1 U-value
	Walls Type 2 area (sq.m.)		Walls Type 2 U-value
	Roof Type 1 area (sq.m.)		Roof Type 1 U-value
	Roof Type 2 area (sq.m.)		Roof Type 2 U-value
	Ground floor area (sq.m.)		Floor U-value
	Other element area (sq.m.)		Other U-value
	Ground floor exposed perimeter (m)

N.B.If you have given full construction details you need not give U-values - I will work it out.

	Main heating system (e.g. boiler and rads)
	Details of boiler (model if possible)
	Details of heating control system

	If boiler and rads, is the pump in a heated space?
	Is the boiler interlocked with the cylinder stat and room stat?

WATER HEATING
