Water usage calculations evaluate how much water a building uses and how it’s used. They play a critical role in meeting UK Building Regulations and are required for all new builds and conversions to ensure efficient water use and compliance with standards.
Why does it matter?
Water usage calculations are essential for ensuring that buildings meet regulatory targets, with new dwellings limited to a maximum of 125 litres of water usage per person per day. Non-compliance can negatively impact SAP ratings and result in project delays.
When is it required?
These calculations are mandatory for new constructions and conversions, with stricter targets applied by some planning authorities.
What Does It Include?
