    2. Conservatories

    3. Highly Glazed Extension Total area of openings 25 % of extension floor area, AND area of any existing openings that are no longer exposed. Highly Glazed Extension: Extend thermal separation area from main dwelling, upgrading the existing Thermal Elements!

    4. Controlled Fitting U Value compliance Conservatory / Highly glazed Extension

    6. Heating Provision or extension of heating system: Comply DCLG ‘Domestic Heating Compliance Guide’ Temperature Controls separate from dwelling Independent on/off control

    7. Barn Conversion Historic Building?

    8. Change of Use A9 Application to material change of use which a building, or part of a building, is used Case I the building is used as a dwelling house, where previously it was not. Case II the building contains a flat or maisonette, where previously it did not. Where there is a material change of use to the whole or part of a building the provisions of the regulations set out in the Table to this regulation shall apply.

    9. Change of use 2 Methods to comply with TB F1 Standards based Equivalent Carbon Target

    10. Barn Conversion - Historic Building? Special considerations apply: Aim : improve energy efficiency where practical Historic or Architectural value Unacceptably alter the character or appearance Specialist advice: Replacing elements Rebuilding following fire / gap site Building fabric – moisture control

    11. Building Regulations (Amendment) Act (Northern Ireland) 2009 31 August 2009 “Protected buildings” 3A.

    12. F1 Compliance Method

    13. Issues: making it comply

    14. Sustainability Retain max. existing fabric Trapped moisture Condensation Ventilation: controlled, natural Wall Insulation: internal, external Roof Insulation: warm / cold roof DPC

    15. Existing thermal element

    17. Controlled fittings Single glazing Timber / metal windows Timber doors Secondary glazing Shutters Heavy curtains Specialist products eg, ‘slimlite’

    18. Moisture Control Allow building to ‘breath’ Avoid cement based products Lime render / plaster (natural products) Ventilate Insulate Resident Lifestyle (BRE report 262: balances heating/ventilation/insulation)

    19. Controlled Services Change of fuel: CO² emissions / 86% efficiency Commissioning certification Notice confirming commissioning by qualified person Pipes, ducts, hw storage DCLG ‘DHCG’ Mechanical ventilation efficient performance GPG 268 ‘guide to specifiers’ Energy efficient Lighting 1:4 / 25%

    20. NIEA EHS publication: ‘A guide to Part F of the N.I. Building Regulations 2006 Historic Buildings & Energy Efficiency’

    21. Room in the Roof
