Recommendations
Recommendation | Potential impact on carbon emissions |
---|---|
Improve insulation on HWS storage. | Low |
Consider replacing T8 lamps with retrofit T5 conversion kit. | Medium |
Add time control to heating system. | Medium |
Add optimum start/stop to the heating system. | Medium |
In some spaces, the solar gain limit defined in the NCM is exceeded, which might cause overheating. Consider solar control measures such as the application of reflective coating or shading devices to windows. | Medium |
Introduce HF (high frequency) ballasts for fluorescent tubes: Reduced number of fittings required. | Low |
Some walls have uninsulated cavities - introduce cavity wall insulation. | Medium |
Recommendation | Potential impact on carbon emissions |
---|---|
Some windows have high U-values - consider installing secondary glazing. | Medium |
Add local temperature control to the heating system. | Medium |
Add weather compensation controls to heating system. | Medium |
Some loft spaces are poorly insulated - install/improve insulation. | Medium |
Add local time control to heating system. | Medium |
Some solid walls are poorly insulated - introduce or improve internal wall insulation. | Medium |
