Section 6: Consequential improvements to energy performance

6.1 Regulation 28 of the Building Regulations may require additional work to be undertaken to make an existing building more energy efficient when certain types of building work are proposed.

6.2 This requirement arises in existing buildings with a total useful floor area of over 1,000 m² where the proposed work consists of:

c. an increase to the installed capacity of any fixed building service (other than a renewable energy generator);

6.3 Consequential improvements should only be carried out to the extent that they are technically, functionally and economically feasible.

6.4 Only a relatively small number of existing dwellings w
