hi guys, just came across this little note of Atag boilers.
The new 'Boiler Plus' regulation comes into play next week, and we’re #BoilerPlusReady.
From 6th April 2018, homeowners are required to comply with Part L of the Building Regulations - commonly known as ‘Boiler Plus’ when they have a new boiler installed. The regulation introduces new energy efficiency standards for domestic heating.
KEY REQUIREMENTS
1. All new gas boilers installed within a domestic property in England must have an ErP energy efficiency of at least 92%.
2. All new gas boiler installations must include both time and temperature controls.
3. Every new gas combination boiler must be installed with at least one additional energy efficiency measure from the following:
• A passive flue heat recovery device
• A smart control with automation and optimisation functions
• Load compensation
• Weather compensation
The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy has provided official guidance for homeowners and installers which you can download here.
How is that possible not to exceed the emissions on co2 and having only a certain amount of heat loss? If you cannot achieve this you are not allowed to install those boilers. I think a little bit extreme as well as forcing homeowners to buy more products of Atag, weather compensation, or smart thermostats, etc... it’s just money making in the end again
