CiviCRM

This webinar will focus on building regulations and their consequences for domestic retrofit. The webinar will focus on parts F, L, and O, which were last updated in June 2022. This online event is primarily for tradespeople working in repair, maintenance, and improvement in small-medium businesses. Other attendees may include people from small architecture firms, house-builders, landlords, owner-occupiers and householders.

After attending the webinar, attendees should be able to understand the building regulations’ requirements for thermal performance of fabric elements (part L), ventilation and airtightness (part F) and overheating (part O), and identify a range of approaches to meet the building regulations’ requirements during a renovation or retrofit project.

This event will be delivered by architect and retrofit specialist, Marianne Heaslip, the technical lead at People Powered Retrofit.
