This guide provides detailed guidance for the installation of fixed
building services in new and existing dwellings to help compliance
with the energy efficiency requirements of the Building
Regulations. The guide covers the design, installation and
commissioning of:* Conventional means of providing primary and
secondary space heating, domestic hot water, mechanical
ventilation, comfort cooling and internal and external lighting.*
Low carbon generation of heat by pumps, solar thermal panels, and
micro-combined heat and power systems. The guide sets out
recommended minimum energy efficiency standards for components of
building services systems, including the use of controls. For
systems installed in new dwellings, the standards are design limits
(or backstop values). For new or replacement systems and components
installed in existing dwellings, the standards represent reasonable
provision for complying with the Building Regulations. Changes to
the 2018 edition The 2018 amendments to the guidance come into
effect on 6 April 2018 and the key changes are as follows:* A new,
higher efficiency standard for replacement gas-fired boilers in
dwellings.* A requirement to install time and temperature control
for all gas and oil-fired boiler installations, including
replacement boilers.* A requirement, when replacing a gas-fired
combination boiler to install at least one energy-efficiency
measure from the following list:o flue gas heat recovery systems o
weather compensation o load compensation o smart controls with
automation and optimisation functions Contents Introduction *
