The Whole House Retrofit Assessment
PAS 2035
Retrofit Assessors are highly trained and experienced person who undertake a retrofit assessment for your home in accordance with PAS 2035.
The survey completed within the retrofit assessment and include an RdSAP report along, with detailed floor plan and condition and occupancy assessments as well.
EPC, retrofit survey and heat loss calculation will give you a complex picture how your property performing, what could be change or upgrade with a step by step guide line to get high standards.
This could be part of the retrofit project or can be done as an individual survey.
The survey is a walk around visual building survey identifying any possible issues inside and outside of your property.
A Retrofit Assessment is the process of evaluating a building’s current condition to identify opportunities for improving its energy efficiency, comfort, and sustainability. It is typically the first step in retrofitting a property to make it more energy-efficient, whether for residential or commercial buildings.
Here are key components of a retrofit assessment:
Energy Performance Evaluation: The assessor evaluates how the building uses energy, including heating, cooling, insulation, and lighting. This involves reviewing the building’s structure, energy bills, and existing systems.
Fabric Assessment: This includes examining walls, roofs, windows, and floors to identify heat loss points and determine the building’s insulation needs.
Ventilation and Air Tightness: The assessment checks how air moves through the building, which is important to prevent heat loss and maintain good indoor air quality.
Building Occupant Needs: The assessment takes into account how the building is used, considering factors such as occupancy levels, comfort needs, and future energy demands.
Improvement Recommendations: The final report provides recommendations for energy-saving measures such as installing insulation, upgrading windows, improving heating systems, or incorporating renewable energy sources (like solar panels).
Compliance with Standards: A retrofit assessment ensures that the recommended improvements comply with building regulations and energy performance standards, such as PAS 2035 in the UK.
Retrofit assessments are a key part of the drive to reduce carbon emissions, improve energy efficiency, and make buildings more sustainable and cost-effective to run.
