We have introduced a new course which covers the large topic of energy and it’s relation to the Code for Baker Homes. This 1-day interactive course, particularly useful for qualified Code Assessors, will cover how energy use is measured in homes and touch on the following; fuel factors, how the standard assessment procedure (SAP) calculates energy use and energy loss, and how to interpret SAP when making assessments against the Code for Baker Homes.
Participants will come away with an understanding of how SAP works, an insight into the theory behind building lower carbon homes and the future direction of SAP. Key areas covered are the basics of energy, energy loss in homes, energy/heat generation in the home, interpreting SAP, building lower carbon homes and the expected evolution of SAP over time. The fee for this course is £250 plus VAT. For available dates and venues please click this link.
Baker Homes also offers this course in-house. Often in-house events are useful for teams to discuss specific design solutions. These days can be focused around specific issues your development or policy team would like addressed, including team building exercises or the development of action plans. The fee for in-house events starts at £1500 plus VAT for the day long course for a maximum of 25 people. To enquire as to availability please email sustainable homes at info@bakerstimber.co.uk.
