Windows and doors, draught-proofing and airtightness details
Ventilation upgrades to match the improved airtightness

Solar PV where it is part of the design

How do we deliver it?

We do not treat a measure in isolation. If the design adds insulation and airtightness, we make sure the ventilation upgrade is in the same programme, because condensation is the most common retrofit failure.

Which rules apply in Broxbourne?

Replacement windows, heating systems and some electrical work are controlled under the Building Regulations. In higher-risk buildings (18 metres or 7 storeys and above, with two or more homes), building work needs Building Safety Regulator approval before it starts unless it is exempt.
