When are SAP Calculations for Conversions required?

A SAP Calculation is required for development projects that lead to the creation of a new dwelling, either through a material change of use or a change in energy status.

Examples of material changes of use include:

  • Development projects that transform a building into a dwelling where it wasn’t previously used as one, such as barn conversions or converting offices into self-contained flats.
  • Changes to a building’s internal layout that result in an increased number of dwellings, for instance, converting houses into flats or reorganising an existing block of flats to create additional units.

A change in energy status occurs when a previously unheated space is upgraded to be heated or conditioned, such as converting a garage or workshop into a residential dwelling. Changes in energy status often go hand-in-hand with material changes of use.

At Quodox Energy, we are committed to building long-term partnerships with property professionals and self-builders by providing exceptional customer support and reliable technical consultation.

As part of this commitment, our SAP Calculation service includes comprehensive advice and recommendations to help ensure your conversion project meets the requirements of Approved Document L: Volume 1 of the Building Regulations (or regional equivalent) in a practical and cost-effective way.
