VENTILATION RATES MUST
NOT BE SACRIFICED FOR
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Changes to the Building Regulations will ensure the need for better
ventilation is not compromised by increasingly tough targets for
reducing energy consumption, according to the Department for Levelling
Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC).
Speaking at a webinar hosted by the Building Engineering Services
Association (BESA), department oœ icials also said new ventilation
requirements were deliberately prescriptive to prepare the country for future
pandemics.
However, they acknowledged the diœ iculties of balancing higher ventilation
rates with the government’s ambition to slash carbon emissions. They said
the overall strategy was for tighter fabric standards and air tightness, but with
additional focus on systems that bring outside air into buildings.
Revisions to Parts F and L of the Regulations come into force in June and
were worked on in parallel to improve ventilation and tackle overheating
while still cutting carbon emissions by 30 per cent in new homes and by 27 per
cent in non-domestic buildings.
All new residential buildings, including care and children’s homes, and
student accommodation, must also be designed to reduce overheating,
thanks to the introduction of the new Part O. Changes to ventilation include
making CO2 monitors compulsory and adding new standards for recirculating
ventilation systems in oœ ices.
The government is bringing in three performance metrics against which new
non-domestic buildings will be measured: primary energy, a CO2 emissions
target, and minimum standards for fabric and fixed building services. The
introduction of a primary energy metric is designed to make the energy
eœ iciency of each building a priority, regardless of the heat source.
Heat emitters must also be designed to work with low temperature
sources like heat pumps to make all buildings ‘zero carbon ready’ in
preparation for the 2025 Future Homes Standard, the BESA webinar heard.
