Did you know that whilst most of the energy loss survey techniques we employ deal with heating and cooling systems for production or working spaces, the quality of the building insulation has a huge part to play in the control of any lost energy?
The surveys identify the following issues:
- Improper sealing around doors and windows
- Insufficient loft/roof space insulation
- Insufficient wall insulations
- Moisture build up within roof or wall insulation
The ideal environmental conditions to perform a building envelope survey are:
- Surfaces free from Solar loading (nighttime surveying preferred)
- Highest temperature differential possible between inside and outside (Law of Thermodynamics –Energy from Hot to Cold)
- Availability of insulation type and thicknesses for walls and roof voids prior to the survey to aid in the calculation of the ‘U’ value
