| Recommendation | Potential impact |
|---|---|
| Replace 38mm diameter (T12) fluorescent tubes on failure with 26mm (T8) tubes. | High |
| Consider replacing T8 lamps with retrofit T5 conversion kit. | Low |
| Add optimum start/stop to the heating system. | Medium |
| In some spaces, the solar gain limit in criterion 3 of ADL2A 2010 is exceeded, which might cause overheating. Consider solar control measures such as the application of reflective coating or shading devices to windows. | Medium |
| Recommendation | Potential impact |
|---|---|
| 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 |
| Consider replacing heating boiler plant with a condensing type. | High |
| Carry out a pressure test, identify and treat identified air leakage. Enter result in EPC calculation. | Medium |
| Some glazing is poorly insulated. Replace/improve glazing and/or frames. | Medium |
| Recommendation | Potential impact |
|---|---|
| Improve insulation on HWS storage. | Low |
| Consider installing solar water heating. | Low |
| The default chiller efficiency is chosen. It is recommended that the chiller system be investigated to gain an understanding of its efficiency and possible improvements. | Low |
| Consider installing PV. | Low |
| Recommendation | Potential impact |
|---|---|
| Some external walls are uninsulated consider installing internal wall insulation. | High |
