No. 260/1994 – Efficiency Requirements for new Hot Water Boiler fired with Liquid or Gaseous Fuels 13 Conservation of Fuel & Energy Part L – Conservation of Fuel & Energy (1997) Part L – Conservation of Fuel and Energy Dwellings (2002) • Elemental U-values should not exceed the following limits for non-domestic buildings: Roof: 0.35W/m2K Walls: 0.55W/m2K Ground Floors: 0.45W/m2K • Domestic Buildings Roof: 0.25W/m2K Walls: 0.37W/m2K Ground Floors: 0.37W/m2K 14 Ventilation Part F – Ventilation (2002) • “adequate means of ventilation shall be provided for people in buildings, including adequate provision for the removal of water vapour from kitchens, bathrooms and other areas where water vapour is generated” • “adequate provision shall be made to prevent excessive condensation in a roof or in a roof void above an insulated roof” 15 Heat Producing Appliances Part J – Heat Producing Appliances (1997) • deals with provisions for solid fuel, oil and gas burning heat sources under several heading: ‘Air Supply’, ‘Discharge of products of combustion’, ‘Protection of Buildings’ and ‘Oil storage tanks’ 16 Hot Water Boilers Building Regulations S.I. No. 260/1994 – Efficiency requirements for new Hot Water Boilers fired with liquid or gaseous fuels • Manufacturer or his authorised representative within the European Community shall affix the EC mark of conformity to the energy efficiency requirements on boilers in a visible, easily legible and indelible manner • The conformity mark consists of the letters ‘CE’ , in the prescribed format, along with the last two figures of the year in which the mark was affixed 17 Existing Experience with Energy Performance Certificates & Boiler/AC inspection • Concept of “energy rating” of dwellings - been in operation on a voluntary basis for several years • Principal voluntary methods in Ireland: – – – – Heat Energy Rating (HER) Irish Home Energy Rating (IHER) National Home Energy Rating (NHER) National Irish Centre for Energy Rating Ltd (NICER) • HER is the official Irish rating method and is freely available in the Irish Building Regulations 18 Existing Experience with Energy Performance Certificates & Boiler/AC inspection • IHER: developed in 1998 under EU SAVE Programme partnership involving National Energy Services, (UK), Energy Action Limited, Dublin, the Energy Research Group, University College Dublin and Alembic Research (Scotland) • NHER: operated in the UK by National Energy Services & is principally concerned with the energy consumption of the dwelling when in use • NICER: established in 1991 to use measurement and software approach to offer energy audits and ratings for Irish houses 19 Existing Experience with Energy Performance Certificates & Boiler/AC inspection • Estimated approx. 230 full-time assessors will be required to carry out approx. 62,700 transactions p.a. in GDA • Assessors drawn from existing base of building professionals, e.g. Engineers, Surveyors, Architects, Building Services Engineers, etc • Estimated cost of Building Energy Rating €300 per house 20 Existing Experience with Energy Performance Certificates & Boiler/AC inspection • Boiler and AC inspection is voluntary in Ireland • Boiler inspections encouraged through the National Boiler Awards • Irish EPBD working group has specified in the Draft Action Plan that it favors option (b) of Article 8 of the Directive regarding boilers • Study to be commissioned by SEI - review the existing structures and activities in place in the area of airconditioning systems commissioning, servicing and inspection in Ireland 21 Target Groups Relevant Actors Names Housing Associations Napco Auctioneers Irish Auctioneers and Valuers Institute Estate Agents DTZ - Sherry Fitzgerald Lisney Hamilton Osbourne King Gunne Local Authority Departments DCC Housing, Social and Community Services Department Architects Division Housing Management Services Quantity Surveyors Division DCC Planning and Economic Development Department Architects Building Control Planning Enforcement Howley Harrington O Mahoney Pike Solearth Architects Developers Ballymore Construction Property Managers WYSE Property Investors Not yet identified 22 Residential Buildings 577,538 Residential Buildings (single family houses & greater residential buildings): No. of dwellings •Dublin City Council: 192,876 •Fingal Co.
