the provision of more information to building control bodies and homeowners and the need for photographic evidence to improve the accuracy of energy calculations.the Building Control Body and the occupant of the new home.
AD L: Volume 1 2021 does not specify who can take the photographs.
It is the builders responsibility to organize who takes the photos and we believe in the vast majority of cases these will be taken by the builder themselves.the housebuilding industry and government have grown increasingly concerned over the potential gap between design and as-built energy performance.
The performance gap in new built homes is particularly affected by three major factors: limitations of energy models; different occupant behaviour of each dwelling; and build quality.
Poor build quality in particular can lead to a new home not meeting the intended primary energy rate, CO2 emission rate, or limiting U-values and can result in higher energy bills for occupants.
As the energy performance of new dwellings is also affected by compliance with Building Regulations requirements, the government is considering it within the broader review of reforms on building safety, design, construction and occupation.
