Design strategies
| Planned occupancy | These are private sale and the occupancy is unknown. |
|---|---|
| Space heating strategy | Each unit has an individual condensing mains gas boiler to water filled radiators |
| Water heating strategy | Each unit has a combined condensing gas boiler, providing instant hot water. |
| Fuel strategy | Mains Gas as primary heating source, and mains electricity. |
| Renewable energy strategy | No renewable electricity generation. |
| Passive Solar strategy | All units modelled in PHPP for orientation, generally windows sized sensibly. |
| Space cooling strategy | Opening windows, plus some cooling via MVHR in summer bypass mode. |
| Daylighting strategy | No particular strategy given. |
| Ventilation strategy | Mechanical ventilation with heat recovery for background ventilation, opening windows for purge ventilation, and summer cooling. |
| Airtightness strategy | Ensuring properly detailed junctions and site supervision and on site inspection with signed check list sheet. Airtightness membrane to roof, with airtightness tapes to joints. |
| Strategy for minimising thermal bridges | Some thermal bridge analysis undertaken, Continuous insulation maintained whenever possible, with an on site inspection and check list sheet to ensure compliance. Junctions assessed include: foundations and internal load bearing walls at ground. |
| Modelling strategy | Passive House Planning Package used to model energy strategy. |
| Insulation strategy | Wall U value = 0.15 W/mK. Roof U value =0.09w/mK. Floor U value = 0.13W/mK |
| Other relevant retrofit strategies | |
