Schiedel Chimney Solutions to Document L
The introduction of Document L1a means that all new build developments must comply with
stringent new rules, aimed at reducing carbon emissions from houses by 20%. By choosing an
appropriate secondary heating appliance and an efficient chimney/flue system, you can help meet the
Government s target without compromising on the cosy focal point that truly makes a house a home.
- Benefits for builder & designer: Research shows that the fireplace is one of the features
that sells a property. You can continue to give home
owners what they want and gain carbon credits that
you can offset against other aspects of construction.
- Benefits for the environment: Everyone wants a cleaner, greener environment.
With the introduction of Document L on 1st April 2006
we can reduce the amount of emissions into the
atmosphere - and it won't cost the earth.
- Benefits for the homeowner: With a growing range of modern carbon efficient
appliances to choose from and the correct chimney/flue specification, you can still have the focal point
and atmosphere created by a fire.
The latest revisions to Building Regulations Approved Document L1A introduce new rules for the calculations of carbon emissions from houses. Robeys can help you minimise Co2 emissions. |
