How to Plan SAP Calculations into Your Construction Timeline
Too often, SAP Calculations are treated as a last-minute checkbox item. But in reality, they can influence design decisions, build specs, and even costs. Planning for them early avoids last-minute redesigns and budget overruns.
When Should You Request SAP Calculations?
We advise construction professionals to engage with us at the design stage. That way, we can analyse your plans and provide preliminary SAP Calculations before you submit to Building Control. Our assessors will flag any U-value concerns, glazing ratios, or ventilation issues that could prevent compliance.
Design Influence: Cost-Saving Energy Efficiencies
In many cases, we help architects and developers save money by recommending affordable alternatives. One client wanted air source heat pumps but struggled with the budget. Our SAP Calculations showed that switching to a higher-rated combi boiler with enhanced insulation achieved the same compliance level — saving thousands.
Final Stage: As-Built SAP Calculations
Once construction is complete, you’ll need “As-Built” SAP Calculations for EPC issuance. We make this part seamless — just send us final build details, and we’ll handle the rest.
Make SAP Calculations a core part of your project planning with EnviroSolution — your partner for energy compliance.
