Case Study 1
Case Study 2
Case Study 3
Case Study 1
8x Terraced / Detached Properties
- 3 & 4 bed properties
- Brick and block constructions
- Gas heating
- Total Ground Floor Area = 350m²
- Total External Wall Area = 900m²
- Total Sloped Roof Area = 400m²
Aim
To achieve a perfect balance of cost savings and running costs while meeting regulations.
Results
Proposed Changes
- Replacing Premium PIR products with cheaper cavity batts/standard PIR
- Use our Bespoke Thermal Bridging calculations for the bridging details
Effects on SAP rating
- Proposed Specification – All B Ratings
- Cost Saving Specification – All B Rating
Cost Comparison
Initial
Proposed
Total Savings £40,520.83
Case Study 2
22x Flats / Terraces / Semi-Detached / Detached
- 22 Development site of flats and houses
- Plans showed Flue Gas Heat Recovery units were to be installed
Aim
Find a solution to remove Flue Gas Heat Recovery units.
Results
Cost savings and benefits
- Removed Time+Temperature Zone control from the smaller plots which allowed for cheaper heating controls
- More efficient and cheaper boiler installed
- Removed the need for Flue Gas Heat Recovery System
Cost Comparison
Initial
Proposed
Total Savings £17,820.00
Case Study 3
88x Terraced / Semi-Detached / Detached Properties
- 1 & 2 bed properties
- Brick and block constructions
- Gas heating
- Total Ground Floor Area = 45 – 105m²
Aim
Reduce overall costs of building materials used while maintaining energy efficiency ratings.
