What are SAP Calculations?
Sap Calculations Costs. SAP stands for ‘Standard Assessment Procedure’ and is the government’s method for calculating the energy performance of dwellings.
These calculations are only necessary for residential properties. In England, your SAP calculations measure two elements; the Dwelling Emission Rate (DER) and Dwelling Fabric Energy Efficiency Calculation (DFEE).
The calculations determine a Target Emissions Rate (TER) and a Target Fabric Energy Efficiency (TFEE) rate. The DER and DFEE must be lower than the TER and TFEE.
SAP calculations come in two formats; L1A (new builds) and L1B (extensions and conversions). The primary purpose of the calculations is to produce a new or updated Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
What information do we need from you?
- Floor plans, elevations & sections
- Orientation e.g. site plan/location plan
- Construction specification of floors, walls and roofs
- Specification for all windows and doors
- Details of primary & secondary heating systems
- Renewable technology (if any)
How much will it cost?
Single Dwelling = From £99
Multiple Dwellings = £POA
EPCs = From £20 per unit
