The whole house approach is quite simple really and can be condensed into ten steps. 1. Insulate and use efficient buildings 2. Choose a suitable efficient heat source for your space heating 3. Decide if you want solar thermal panels to help your hot water efficiency 4. Decide if Solar PV can help 5. Choose low-water usage taps and showers, and consider rain-water harvesting or grey water recycling 6. Choose your DHW cylinder to suit the DHW usage of the house 7. Choose the most appropriate heat emitters UFH, fan assisted radiators or oversized normal radiators 8. Get the right controls to make it all work together 9. Think about heat recovery systems 10. Use energy efficient appliances and products in the building The guide will help you select products for the whole house approach.
Government Planning The Government has set out ambitions to tackle a third of the UKs carbon emissions from housing by 2050. By 2015 no old homes will lack the basic energy efficient measures. From 2016 all new homes will be built to a new zero carbon standard. By 2020 seven million homes will have been upgraded to significantly improve the energy performance. By 2050 the nations entire housing stock will be virtually zero carbon. This will require a complete transformation of the housing stock over the coming decades.
The Code for Sustainable Homes - formerly EcoHomes Scheme (The New Build homes version of BREEAM - Launched Apr 2007) What is the Code for Sustainable Homes Quite simply the Code is a measuring tool for environmental performance of new build homes, it sits above the current building regulations and is applied to individual dwellings.
The code has a two stage process Design stage (DS) leading to interim certificate Post Construction Stage (PCS) leading to final certificate. The code has mandatory areas. Energy, Water, Materials, Waste and Surface water run-off

Building Regulations changed October 2010

25% Improvement in DER over TER Part L1A 2010 aims to improve Dwelling emission rates by 25% over Part L1A 2006. This corresponds roughly with the trigger point for Code for Sustainable Homes Level 3, in line with the governments strategy for getting newbuild dwellings to zero carbon by 2016. This is a 40% improvement over a dwelling built to the 2002 regulation

GROUND SOURCE HARNESSING HEAT PUMPS NATURES ENERGY
Our environment is full of energy, even at sub-zero temperatures there is plenty of energy available. Heat pumps use conventional refrigeration technology to extract the suns energy stored in the environment and raise it to a temperature suitable for heating purposes. This principle works even in the middle of winter at temperatures as low as -25C.

Source National Grid 25%
A heat pump heating system consists of 3 components: the heat source, the heat pump itself and a heat distribution and storage system. Heat pumps are able to produce more energy than they consume by using the conventional refrigeration cycle to absorb heat from the environment and raise it to a suitable level for heating.
RIDGEONS RECOMMENDS
Before selecting a Heat Pump for retro fitting into an existing home you should check the thermal efficiency of the building.
1 2 3
75% of the energy is taken from the environment i.e the air or ground and transfered to the heat pump. 25% of the energy is sourced from the national grid in the normal way of supplying your electricity. This is used to operate the heat pump but with very low consumption The energy from the air or ground is transfered to the refrigerant inside the heat pumps evaporator. This causes the temperature of the refrigerant to rise and change state from liquid to gas. The refrigerant gas is then compressed, using an electrically driven compressor, reducing its volume but causing its temperature to rise significantly. A heat exchanger (condenser) then extracts the heat energy from the hot refrigerant to heat water for central heating, underfloor heating or domestic hot water. After giving up its heat energy the refrigerant turns back into a liquid and is able to absorb energy from the environment, allowing the cycle to begin again.
Using natures energy efficiently

Heat pumps are among the most efficient heating and hot water systems available today. Approximately 75% of the energy needed for heating comes from the environment. This means that for every 1kWh of electricity used to power the heat pump compressor, between 3 and 4 kWh of heating energy are produced, giving the heat pump an efficiency of 300-400% or higher. The heat pumps efficiency is known as its Coefficient of Performance (CoP). This is simply a ratio between the proportion of the total energy supplied that can be extracted from the environment and the amount supplied by electricity to run the heat pump compressor. The higher the CoP, the more free environmental energy the heat pump is using!

GRANT AERONA AIR SOURCE HEAT PUMPS

Compared with other domestic heating methods, a Grant Aerona ASHP can benefit homeowners by creating annual savings on fuel bills, as it can deliver between 3.9kW and 5.8kW (depending on the model, at 7oC air temperature/35oC water temperature) of energy for every 1kW used to run the unit. It also means that homes have a lower dependency on fossil fuels, making them less susceptible to rising fuel costs. Home heating in the UK additionally accounts for some 30% of CO2 emissions. Grant Aerona ASHP can help reduce the amount of these harmful gases being released into the atmosphere, therefore lowering the homes carbon footprint.

GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMPS

CALOREX DOMESTIC GROUND SOURCE HEAT PUMPS
A range of ground to water heat pumps specifically designed for space and domestic water heating. The earth has the natural ability to absorb and store heat from the sun as well as heat from within the earth itself. In the UK, just a few meters below the surface we discover average temperatures between 8C and 10C. Calorex ground source heat pumps work on the principle of extracting this low grade solar energy which is stored in infinite amounts in the ground around us and then upgrading this energy into useable high grade heat for the home.
Key benefits
Efficiencies up to 400% for space heating Consistent ground temperatures offer greater efficiency at low ambient air temperatures Small footprint units optimise space Very low starting currents Delivers DHW to 65C Range from 3.5kW 15kW

CYLINDERS HEAT PUMPS

CALOREX CYLINDERS
The Calorex range of cylinders have been specifically designed to work with the lower output temperatures delivered by heat pumps. The Calorex cylinders incorporate larger primary coils for optimised heat transfer at lower temperatures. The cylinder range offers the flexibility of both vented and unvented options with variants available to incorporate solar or other technologies.
G3 A part of the building regulations explains how to prevent excessive temperatures. This is more widely advertised at the moment because it has recently been amended to ensure that any new build or building conversion to domestic purposes including a TMV2 approved Thermostatic Mixing Value (TMV) on any bath present on the property.

GRANT HEAT PUMP CYLINDERS

Heat Pump Cylinders
Grant have introduced a range of stainless steel cylinders specifically matched to the Aerona ASHP, which incorporate a larger primary coil for quicker heat transference. The new cylinders are available in three indirect single coil versions, ranging from 125-400 litres and four indirect twin coil versions ranging from 170-400 litres. Grant Heat Pump cylinders feature compression fittings which are conveniently located to make installation quicker and easier. These models additionally come complete with an installation kit comprising: expansion vessel with hose and bracket, inlet manifold assembly, tundish, dual thermostat, 2-port zone valve, Benchmark book, instruction manual/user guide.
Design
Every unit is manufactured from the highest specification 1mm thick duplex stainless steel. The outer casings are injected with 40mm of CFC/HCFC free, fire retardant polyurethane foam. This insulation ensures all models achieve surprisingly low standing heat losses and outstanding efficiency and reliability.
Domestic Hot Water (DHW) Booster Kit

Whilst it is possible to raise the DHW to 60oC with an Aerona Air Source Heat Pump, it can be more efficient to set the hot water temperature between 45oC and 50oC and utilise Grants Domestic Hot Water Booster Kit to take the cylinder up to the desired higher temperature. This unit comprises a two-way enclosure with 20A rated contactor, incorporating a switch and relay, which works with the immersion element fitted in all Grant cylinders.

GROUND COLLECTORS & THERMO PIPES

Horizontal Loops (slinkies) These are often considered when adequate land surface is available. The GSHP tranfers the solar energy stored in the soil through the loops and into your home.
Vertical Loops (borehole) These are the ideal choice when available land surface is limited. The GSHP transfers the stored geothermal energy through the closed loop circuit. The transferred energy is ideal for heaing and cooling.
Pond (Lake) Loops These are economical to install when a body of water is available, because excavation costs are virtually eliminated. Coils of pipe are simply placed on the bottom of the pond or lake.

Something in the air

All the good work done so far in creating modern air-tight insulated houses has brought about other issues that need to be addressed where ventilation is concerned.
Mechanical Extraction Ventilation Energy
NEW THINKING IN ENERGY EFFICIENT AIR DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS

where ventilation is concerned. Good, well-managed ventilation means we can work to minimise smells, reduce moisture levels that can be very damaging to the fabric of the building and to ensure sufficient oxygen for good cognitive performance. Therefore, its vital to include products to put right any ill effects a well insulated home might encounter. As part of the 2010 Building Regulations Approved Document L consultation workshop, it was pointed out that modern buildings can lose up to 25% of heat due to uncontrolled ventilation and air leakage. Heat recovery appliances can recover more than 90% of this heat and a central heat recovery system will take air from the bathroom, kitchen, toilet and utility (wet/smelly) rooms and feed it through duct into the heat recovery unit before passing it to outside. Fresh air is drawn from outside to the heat recovery unit before distributing through another duct system to living and bed rooms, creating a more comfortable environment for the homeowner.
THE SCIENCE BIT

Heat exchange takes place within the appliance by blowing the outgoing stale but warm air through an adjoining channel to the incoming fresh cooler air which is blown in the opposite direction. In line with the second law of thermodynamics, heat will move from the hotter region to the colder region. By keeping heat within the building, demand on heating systems is reduced. This is because the thermostat for the heating system does not demand heat as often, which in turn means the heating system does not consume as much fuel.
INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE
Whether retro-fitting or planning into a new build, these systems are easy to install. Eye-level kitchen cupboard fit or loft units can be simply installed and plugged in with a three-pin plug. Watch out for some loft units that are too big to go through the loft trap as these have to be dismantled or installed before the ceilings are completed.
RIDGEONS RECOMMENDS
Installing one of these units into your build gives controllable ventilation to the living areas and can create a greater sense of wellbeing. It gives the homeowner lower fuel bills and can help create less damage to the building structure from mould.

Underfloor Heating Systems

Underfloor heating is arguably the most appealing form of energy efficient heating to homeowners. It produces even warmth throughout the house, and providing the envelope of the house is well-insulated, very littleheat is lost. Its also rather luxurious, potentially adding extra sale ability to your properties.
Underfloor Heating Energy
SPACE AND MONEY SAVING

Previously thought of as a space-saving alternative in kitchens and bathrooms where there might not be room for radiators, underfloor heating is becoming more and more prevalent throughout the home. It works particularly well under laminate and tiles, but is not always the best option for placing underneath carpets. Water-based systems are the most energy efficient working particularly well with heat pumps and solar thermal. Installing it from the start in new builds makes it extremely cost effective, as it can be laid as you build. Retrofits can be more costly with the need to remove any existing flooring, but if installed during renovation it is a very financially viable option.
LOW ENERGY EQUALS LOWER BILLS

Water-based underfloor heating systems are widely available and are most efficient when coupled with ground or air pumps or solar thermal panels.They are heated to a lower temperature than conventional water central heating, typically 50C rather than 60C. If used with a high efficiency condensing bolier they are also very efficient and can give homeowners significant savings. Lower energy bills and a consistent reliable warmth are making this form of heating increasingly popular. And of course, they help your development score extra credits from a Code assessor.
Why choose underfloor heating?

1. Easy to install and reliable 2. Cost effective and lower energy bills 3. Highly efficient, producing an even heat 4. Works effectively with heat pumps or solar water systems
RIDGEONS RECOMMENDS
Underfloor heating gets a big thumbs up from us. Its cost effective, easy to install and requires less energy whilst providing consistent, reliable heat. It also has a bit of the wow factor built in, which we think makes it a winner!

ENERGY EFFICIENT RADIATORS

DIMPLEX SMARTRADS
Dimplex SmartRad intelligent, wall mounted fan convector radiators combine fast and responsive , accurate room by room heating with energy efficiency and style. Designed specifically to work with heat pumps, SmartRad provides a cost effective and practical alternative to under floor heating. Utilising a compact high efficiency heat exchanger and intelligently controlled fan to assist convection and delivery of heat into the room, SmartRad is significantly more powerful than traditional radiators and as a result can be up to 3 times smaller whilst generating the same level of heat output. Containing only 5% of the water volume of a conventional steel radiator, SmartRad with its low thermal mass heats up four times more quickly and reacts more responsively to changes in room temperature, providing improved control, comfort and energy savings. SmartRad is ideal for retro fit installations in place of conventional radiators or in new buildings instead of or in conjunction with under floor heating.
Key features: Stylish compact design, with a choice of white metal, white glass or black glass finishes Energy efficient alternative to conventional radiators Cost effective, practical alternative to under floor heating Designed for low water temperature operation: Optimises heat pump CoP Reduces heat pump system running costs Reduces heat pump system CO2 emissions 3 times less wall space required than a conventional radiator Ultra-low water content provides energy saving through: 4 times faster room heat up and 70% less energy than a standard radiator with comparable output to bring a room from 10C to 21C Responsive reaction to incidental heat gains (e.g. Solar gain) prevents overheating and energy wastage Individual heater temperature control: Close tolerance electronic thermostat providing automatic control over fan speed output Delivers high levels of comfort through improved room temperature stability Optional plug in 24 hour or 7 day programmers

Get into hot water

Once youve created the hot water through solar thermal panels or heat pumps, its imperative it is stored efciently and effectively, ready for use.
New developments have meant there is now a range of super efcient thermal heat stores available. Whereas most practical active solar heating systems have storage for a few hours to a day's worth of heat collected, using a thermal heat store tank can keep hot water at a higher temperature than is actually needed therefore always has the hot water there to release when required. This technology is made practical by the large heat of fusion of water. Neatly stored storage units Typically made from a copper or steel vessel it is usually located neatly out of the way from the collector or boiler. Using a Thermal Store allows the water temperature to be in excess of that required, ensuring that there is a constant source of hot water, on tap. All in all, this is exciting new technology that means you can control, store and heat water through various means.
Thermal Store Energy
GRANT THERMAWAVE THERMAL STORE RANGE

Grant ThermaWave Design Grants unique new ThermaWave Store allows multiple heat sources to be connected in a number of different ways, with the back-up feature of two 3kW immersion elements. This unit makes it possible to now have a gas or oil fired boiler connected to an Aga or solid fuel appliance and also a renewable heat source such as solar thermal or a heat pump. Furthermore, underfloorheating system manifolds as well as radiator circuits can also be directly connected to the store. A separate hot water kit is also available for those situations where a nominal domestic hot water supply is required. Where there is a greater demand for domestic hot water, the store should be linked with Grants MonoWave or DuoWave cylinders. Exciting features Unique design slows inlet water velocities ensuring multi-level temperature distribution. High specification 1mm thick duplex stainless steel is utilised which resists all forms of corrosion; compression fittings on all connections (except 28mm) dramatically reduce installation time, 40mm injected polyurethane foam insulation gives an exceptionally low standing heat loss, making the stores highly efficient and a 25-year shell guarantee (subject to terms and conditions) which endorses the durability of the product.
RIDGEONS RECOMMENDS
If youre installing renewables in your next project, suggest a thermal heat store too. It helps to make the most of the technology youre planning to include and is the best way to help the home owner save as much money as possible on their energy bills.

The heat is always on

The sun is the most efficient renewable energy source and is nowhere near utilised to its full potential. If it were, just half an hour of its energy would be enough to provide power for the entire world for a whole year. Now is the time to start taking solar seriously and introducing this renewable energy to your developments.

GO SOLAR
There are two types of solar collection systems, Solar Photovoltaic (PV) and Solar Thermal. PV panels convert solar radiation to electricity that can be used in the building, with any excess being sold to the grid. Solar thermal collectors convert solar radiation to heat which can be used for heating domestic hot water and for space heating. It is possible to install both on a roof, and the government incentive schemes in the form of Feed In Tariffs (FITs) and the recent Renewable Heating Incentive (RHI) even ensure short payback periods while making a contribution to the reduction in CO2 emissions, making the world a better place for future generations. Solar systems are now permited development which means that planning permission is not required to install solar systems. Exceptions are in listed buildings and in some cases on buildings in a Conservation Area.
SOLAR THERMAL
Solar thermal systems collect solar energy as heat, which is transferred to a storage cylinder for use as domestic hot water or for space heating. Solar thermal systems should be configured to give 60-70% of a households annual domestic hot water, with 100% coverage during the summer months! During winter this will drop to around 20% of the domestic hot water demand. With the ever-increasing price of fuel, solar thermal results in great savings. The recently announced Renewable Heating Incentive (see section on RHI below), will act as an incentive to install solar thermal and decrease payback times dramatically. Solar thermal systems can also be used to heat swimming pools in homes or leisure centres. Collectors can be flat plate or evacuated tube collectors. Evacuated tube collectors can be more efficient than flat plate collectors, but are generally more expensive. Flat plate collectors are robust and simple in design, and should last in excess of 35 years. The heat is transferred from the collectors to the storage cylinder using a food-grade glycol solution, which prevents frost damage to the system in winter. Solar thermal systems are the most cost-effective way to increase the energy efficiency of a building and achieve compliance with the Code for Sustainable Homes and Part L of the building regulations. Solar thermal can be easily fitted to new build or existing buildings, and require little maintenance.
SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC
Solar PV systems use silicone crystals to create electrical energy from daylight. Although daylight levels in the UK are not as high as many parts of the world, there is more than enough energy to produce 1000s of kWh of electricity from a house roof. The panels can be installed on almost any roof, canopy or faade, and can even be mounted on frames directly on the ground or a flat roof. Panels are available in standard silver, or for a more aesthetically pleasing look, all black. In most cases planning permission is not required for domestic properties as these systems fall under the permitted development rules. PV panels are available in various sizes and efficiencies, in order to maximise the ammount of energy produced from a system a high yielding panel should be chosen The PV system is connected to the existing electrical supply of the property, which means the free generated electricity can be used through existing switches and sockets in the property. Any electricity that is not used is supplied to the national grid, with the system owner being paid for the amount which they export. This payment is in addition to the Feed In Tarrif payment for the generation of the electricity.

POWER TO THE PEOPLE

A surge of interest in renewables thanks to the introduction of a new Government scheme - Feed-in Tariffs
Feed-in Tariffs (FITs] were introduced in April 2010 and are now available to all homeowners, landlords, small businesses and communities that generate their own electricity from a renewable or low-carbon source. The scheme requires energy companies to make regular payments back to the bill payer. They can also receive bonus payments if they feed back extra power to the National Grid. The introduction of this scheme is sure to bring about renewed interest in renewable technology and you need to be ready to meet the demand.
JARGON BUSTED!
Feed-in Tariffs
? !# *
Payments to ordinary energy users for renewable electricity they generate if they use it themselves. They can receive a bonus if they transfer energy back to the National Grid.
FIT for purpose

Homes or premises should ensure they are as energy efficient as possible before installing renewable technology and applying for the scheme. If youre talking to your customers about it make sure they have adequate loft and cavity wall insulation, heating controls, double glazing and are using low-energy lighting to help them get the most from their Feed-in Tariff.
You can use the electricity you generate meaning you dont have to import from the grid
Electricity is created by solar panels. Your electricity supplier pays you for each unit of electricity you generate. You import electricity from the grid when you need additional power.
You export electricity back to the grid when you dont use it. You are paid an export tariff.
Energy
Feed in tariffs How they work

PV systems registering with the scheme from 1st April 2011 to 1st March 2012 will benet as follows
Any system up to 4kW on a new build
37.8p per kWh
Any system up to 4kw on an existing property (retrofitted)
43.3p per kWh
Any system up to 4-10kw new build or retrofitted
37.8p per kWh
Any system up to 10-100kw new build or retrofitted
37.8p per kWh
If you normally pay 12p per kWh for your electricity, you would effectively get both the PV generated power consumed for free and the FiT. So on a retrofit system up to 4kw this would mean 12p + 41.3p = 53.3p per kWh saving!
There are a number of electricity-generating technologies the scheme covers, including solar PV roof mounted or stand-alone, hydroelectricity and wind turbines. Various grants are available to help fund the installation of renewables, for more information on this go to www.energysavingtrust.co.uk

Incentive to change
Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) creates incentive to install renewable heat sources
The Renewable Heat Incentive will be introduced from July 2011 and will be a payment for every kWh of heat produced from a renewable heat source. The RHI payment will be made for a variety of qualifying technologies, at different rates (see table below). Importantly, in order to be eligible for the RHI payment, a system must have been installed by an MCS-accredited installer using MCS or Solar Keymark accredited equipment. Phase 1 of the scheme will run from July 2011, and will apply to any non-domestic installation. Phase 2 will run from Autumn 2012, and will include domestic installations. The RHI scheme will make payments for any qualifying installation completed after July 2009. Most technologies will measure the quantity of heat produced, and the end-user will inform Ofgem of the quarterly energy reading. Payments will be made quarterly, and will continue for a period of 20 years. This will significantly reduce the payback period that is often calculated. Domestic installations will still benefit from the RHI before Phase 2 by means of a Premium Payment, which is a one-off grant towards the capital costs of a renewable heating system. Systems that have received the Premium Payment will still be eligible for RHI payments when Phase 2 starts in Autumn 2012.

WHY CHOOSE SOLAR HOT WATER? CHOOSE SOLAR HOT WATER?

In the context of ever-rising energy costs, climate change and changing legislation, the need for a heating and hot water technology that is future-proof, cost-effective and able to use an unlimited, sustainable source of energy is essential.

Its time to harness the suns energy

Every year the sun provides over 8000 times as much energy as we consume worldwide and in the UK alone we receive between 900 and 1200kWh of energy per m2 of land per year. On average, every home spends 20-25% of its combined annual energy bills on water heating. In the UK a well designed solar water heating system can provide almost all the hot water for a home during the summer months and on average around 50-60% year round. This is why solar water heating systems are one of the most cost-effective and environmentally-friendly renewable energy solutions available, reducing fuel bills and building carbon dioxide emissions.

Annual Contribution from Solar Water Heating
Low carbon hot water solution

Whenever fossil fuels such as coal, oil or gas are burnt, carbon dioxide is released. CO2 is the principal contributor to the green-house effect which is leading to long term climate change. However as solar water heating can provide as much as 60% of a buildings annual hot water demand from renewable energy, building carbon emissions can be significantly reduced, particularly in new homes where water heating is fast becoming the largest source of energy use. This has an obvious benefit when considering Building Regulations Part L compliance, planning obligations requiring minimum contributions from renewable energy or Code for Sustainable Homes ratings.

Future proof energy costs

Using renewable solar energy means that running costs compared with traditional fossil fuelled water heating systems can be reduced. More importantly, using free energy from the environment future-proofs the system against fossil fuels as they become ever more scarce and their price inevitably continues to rise.

HOW SOLAR SOLAR WHY CHOOSEWORKS HOT WATER?

Solar energy is available in abundance all around us. Every year the sun provides 8000 times more energy than we consume globally ready for use whenever you need it. Solar water heating systems harness solar radiation to efficiently and effectively heat water stored in a cylinder, ready for use whenever you need it. One system, many applications
Solar systems comprise of three key elements which are highly versatile enabling them to be used for a variety of applications from small apartments to large commercial installations. Collector Roof mounted or free standing, the collector captures solar radiation from the sun and passes it onto a working heat transfer fluid. Heat transfer system The pump station, controlled by the control unit, moves the captured solar energy from the collector to the water storage cylinder. Storage cylinder Energy from the heat transfer fluid is transferred to the stored water via a coil heat exchanger. The cylinder has a supplementary heat source to provide back up for times when insufficient solar energy is available.

The Grant CombiSOL
With solar thermal systems increasing in popularity in the UK and many new and existing heating installations involving mains pressure combination boilers, a simple, cost effective solution to integrate these two technologies is a must. The Grant CombiSOL is designed to do just that, and is uniquely compatible with most combi boilers and fuel types. It works by accurately controling the outlet temperature of stored secondary hot water produced by a solar thermal system, directing the flow either straight to the hot water outlet, or via the combi boiler to the same outlet with a seamless changeover. There are additionally minimal temperature fluctuations at the taps.

Complete Solutions To make life as straight forward as possible, Grant have introduced a series of individually numbered kits that meet most installation requirements. These simply consist of either Aurora or Sahara collectors, a roof mounting system, expansion vessel, pump station, control panel, pipe connections and solar fluid - all of which can be installed in just a few days. System Size Grant Solar Collectors have a total area of 2.32m2. As a rule of thumb, when sizing a system, you should allow 1.0-1.3m2 of collector area, per person. Cylinder requirements are 50-60 litres capacity per m2 of collector area. To simplify this, for a 2-Collector system of 4.64m2, you would require a cylinder of approximately 200 litres. This would be sufficient for 4 people and satisfy up to 70% of your hot water demand per annum.

SOLAR CYLINDERS
SOLAR CYLINDERS
Solar systems can work on either Open Vented or Unvented systems providing that the cylinder has a twin coil, top coil normal system bottom coil for Solar. Cylinder Selection The choice of capacity for traditional cylinders is based on the hot water requirements of the home. With Solar Cylinders the usable hot water will vary due to a number of factors such as the time of year, weather conditions and the siting of the panels. For this reason, when choosing a solar cylinder you should ensure that sufficient usable hot water will be available during the winter months where solar gain is at its lowest. For example a non solar home of 3 inhabitants with a bath and shower would normally require a 145ltr indirect cylinder. However in line with Clear Skies* requirements at least 30% of the cylinder capacity must be dedicated to solar only, therefore the same home with a solar system fitted would require a 210ltr indirect solar cylinder, which would provide 143ltrs of hot water during periods of low no solar gain. For guidance please refer to the table below. Please bear in mind that some applications may require larger capacity or higher recovery rates, therefore it is vitally important to calculate the hot water before selecting the cylinder capacity.

WOOD & PELLET BURNING STOVES
How do wood fuelled heating systems work? There are two main ways of using wood to heat you home: A standalone stove burning logs or pellets to heat a single room. Some can also be fitted with a back boiler to provide water heating as well. A boiler burning pellets, logs or chips connected to a central heating and hot water system. Log burning stoves and boilers have to be filled with wood by hand. Some pellet and chip burners use automatic fuel feeders which refill them at regular intervals from fuel storage units called hoppers. The benefits of wood fuel heating A low carbon option: the carbon dioxide emitted when wood fuel is burned is the same amount that was absorbed over the previous months and years as the plant was growing. As long as new plants continue to grow in place of those used for fuel, the process is sustainable. There are some carbon emissions caused by the cultivation, manufacture and transportation of the fuel, but as long as the fuel is sourced locally, these are much lower than the emissions from fossil fuels. A good use for waste wood: burning wood can be a convenient means of disposing of waste that might otherwise be sent to a landfill site.
Is a wood fuelled heating system suitable for my home? To tell if wood fuelled heating is right for you, there are a few key questions to consider: Do you have enough space? You'll need a large dry area close to the boiler to store your wood. Ideally this should be close to where the wood is delivered to your home to minimise the distance you have to carry it. Do you have a suitable flue? You need a vent which is specifically designed for wood fuel appliances, with sufficient air movement for proper operation of the stove. Your existing chimney can be fitted with a lined flue, which is relatively inexpensive. Can you comply with safety and building regulations? If you live in an old or unusual home this may be an issue. For more information, see Part L of the Building Regulations, Northern Ireland and Section 3 of the Technical Handbooks, Scotland Do you live in a smokeless zone? If so then wood can only be burnt in certain exempted appliances. http://www.uksmokecontrolareas.co.uk/locations.php Do you need planning permission? You need to talk to your local authority if your flue will extend 1m or more above the height of your roof, or your home is in a Conservation Area or World Heritage Site and you plan to install a flue on the principal elevation visible from a road.

The buzz about Biomass boilers

A carbon zero energy source that will never run out, Biomass boilers are on the rise. Heres why you should consider them in your next development.
Biomass Boilers Energy
A truly sustainable source

As long as there are trees, there will be fuel for a biomass boiler. Sourced largely from secondary wood from sawmills, wood pellets, bark, treated and untreated old timber and wood from fast growing plants, it should never run out. Culmiferous fuels, such as straw, whole grain plants and energy plants and plant oils can also be used. As all of these products are part of the natural cycle, it makes biomass fuel completely carbon neutral.
BIOMASS HEATING WITH WOOD PELLETS

Wood Pellet Heating has been widely used in Europe since the mid 90s and has contributed greatly to helping these countries meet their carbon reduction targets. Therefore wood pellet heating technology is well proven and is growing in popularity in the UK as fossil fuel prices rise. The main advantages associated with wood pellets over other biomass fuels are: 1. Dense and take up less space (1 tonne requires 1.8 cubic metres) 2. Readily available 3. Boilers that burn wood pellet offer high degree of automation 4. High calorific value (high energy) 5. Low ash content 6. Clean The most advanced biomass boilers like Woodpecker are as easy to use as an oil fired boiler i.e they have automatic cleaning, auto de-ashing and automatic filling of pellet fuel. The boilers are controlled in much the same way as your existing gas or oil fired boiler. Pellet fuel particularly if purchased in Bulk can be up to 40% cheaper than oil. heaper Bagged pellet fuel is more uel expensive but should hould still compare favourably with oil prices.
YOU WONT GET AN ASH CLOUD WITH BIOMASS

Wood Pellets of premium quality produce as little as 0.5% ash. For example, if you use 4 tonnes of pellet fuel per annum only 20kgs of ash is produced over the year. And did you know the ash is a very good fertiliser for your flower bed or garden? Another useful aspect of this product. Fortunately there is an abundance of pellet fuel in the UK much of which is produced from sustainably managed UK forests. Many more pellet fuel manufacturing plants are set to open in the near future throughout the UK.

The futures brighter

The compulsory sale of low energy lighting through all stockists, trade and domestic, once current stocks of traditional bulbs are exhausted, has been a controversial move. There were initial concerns about their safety because of the low levels of mercury they contained and also protest from people concerned about the lower level of light they gave out. Despite these concerns the governments plan to only allow the sale of low energy light bulbs has effectively been realised.
Low Energy Lighting Energy
TIME TO GET CREATIVE

This move has given our industry an opportunity to think and plan more creative lighting installations. Using low energy bulbs and LED lights makes it possible to create fantastically modern installations and add a real wow factor to a home as well as reduce the energy costs from traditional bulbs. More and more low energy lights are available now and their performance has improved since the initial protests about their introduction as the industry standard form of lighting.
HOW LOW CAN YOU GO....

Fitting low energy light bulbs is proven to save the homeowner money on their electricity bill. Even though the intial outlay is more, they can last up to 12 times longer, making them extremely cost effective. Quality improvements in the last few years will also help encourange more home owners to choose low energy, now they are brighter quicker and available for dimmer switches. Fitting them into your development as standard also helps you achieve Level 3 of the Code for Sustainable Homes.
SCOOP UP THE SUN

One product available makes the most of the suns natural light during the day and makes an interesting feature in a new build or extended property. Sun scoops gather natural sunlight and reflect it back into the room, giving a light, airy feel and of course, no electricity is required.
Three main types of energy light bulbs:

Compact flourescent lamps (CFLs) the most common energy saving light bulbs. They come in various shapes with screw and bayonet fittings Energy saving halogen light bulbs - a
RIDGEONS RECOMMENDS
If youre planning a development from the ground up, get someone in early to talk about lighting. So much can be done with lighting to transform the look and feel of a property that the planning stage has become crucial. Its no longer enough to pop a few wall lights in. Good lighting can make all the difference to the finished product.
good option if you have halogen lights already installed on the property as they consume around 30% less electricity than standard halogen bulbs. LED Lights - these have progressed rapidly in recent years and can now be used to replace existing halogen spotlights.

GET WISE WITH WATER

Refreshingly easy-to-use products that save and re-use this vital commodity
It might be something we all take for granted, but water is scarcer than you might think, especially in densely populated urban areas of the UK. We are all being urged to use it more wisely, domestically and commercially. The Governments water strategy for England, Future Water, outlines a vision for the average person to reduce potable water consumption. Ridgeons products can help you help your customer achieve this. The amount of water used in domestic homes can be dramatically reduced without anybody even noticing the difference. By installing water saving taps, showers, low flushing toilets and baths potable water consumption can be reduced by as much as 25%, thus resulting in lower water bills for the consumer. Rainwater Harvesting & Greywater recycling can reduced potable water consumption further by up to 50%. The collected water can be used to flush toilets, fill the washing machine, water the garden or even wash your car.
Rainwater Harvesting
Rainwater collected from the roof, filtered and re-used to replace potable water, to flush toilets, thus reducing potable water consumption and reducing water bills
Water
Part G April 2010 Buildings Regulations 2000
The facts about our water supplies are actually pretty shocking. The UK has less available water per person than most other European countries. London is drier than Istanbul and the South East of England has less water available per person than the Sudan and Syria. This is why the Government has introduced Part G into the Buildings Regulations, to help, among other things, minimise the daily amount of water use of every home in the UK. Make sure youre up to speed with these latest amendments by talking with a Ridgeons Eco Champion.

Water saving sanitaryware, taps, showers and grey and rainwater harvesting systems are something all homebuilders need to start including in building projects from the beginning. Up to 5 credits are available for performance that reduces the amount of potable water used in the home. The minimum mandatory requirements begin at level 1 increasing at level 3 and again at level 5. Credits are available for all the indoor potable water performance levels required in the Code. Credits are awarded based on a whole house assessment of the efciency of internal water ttings against a benchmark gure and it is measured in litres per person, per day using the Water Efciency Calculator for New Dwellings. The table below gives details of the required performance level:

This is the Governments National calculation method for the assessment of water efciency in new dwellings in support of Building Regulations Part G 2010 and the Code for Sustainable homes November 2010. The calculator assesses the contribution that each internal water tting has on whole house water consumption, measured in litres per person per day based on research into typical water use. Due to the impacts of user behaviour it will not relate directly to the actually water use in the home but will provide a benchmark assessment of the typical consumption of a specication of ttings and their impact on water efciency.
Rainwater recycling
The rainwater that falls onto a buildings roof is channeled through standard guttering and pipework and rather than going into the drain, the water passes through a mesh filter to remove leaves or debris before entering a storage tank. When neededm this water is then automatically pumped back into the building and is put to use in non-potable applications, such as toilet flushing or filling the washing machine.

Greywater recycling
Greywater gets its name from its cloudy appearance and from its status as being between fresh potable water (known as white water) and sewage water (black water). Greywater can only be collected from bathroom or en-suites. The waste water from baths, showers, hand basins is collected filtered and re-used to flush toilets

INTRO & LOW VOLUME BATHS SANITARYWARE

Bath capacity
The Water Efficiency Calculator requires the input of the capacity of baths up to the bottom of the bath overflow. Today there are a wide diversity of bath shapes and sizes and it is possible to purchase baths with a capacity as low as 116 litres (a typical average capacity for baths is around 190 litres). To keep water usage low it is recommended that both a bath and a shower, or a shower only, are installed in a dwelling. If there is only a bath it will be given a very high weighting.
WC flush volume
The calculator takes into account the amount of water required to flush WCs in the house. Modern WCs often require less water than they used to and by specifying a dual flush it is assumed that the small flush will be used around twice as much as the large flush dramatically reducing the amount of water consumed.
Tap and mixer flow rates

All taps and mixers inside the house are measured and they can account for high water consumption. Whether you need to reduce the flow rate on taps or mixers will be determined by the water pressure in the building. Most mixers and pillar taps can be fitted with water regulators that either regulate the water into or out of the fitting.

Concept water saving bath, 116149 litres
Water saving baths

The Concept water saving bath uses a clever design that takes into account the need for less space at the foot end of the bath whilst bathing. The bath has a capacity of 116 litres and accounts for only 12.76 litres of water in the calculator when there is a shower in the house as well. This compares with an average bath of 190 litres which would use 20.9 litres of water.
Alto 170 x 70cm bath, 149 litres
It is still possible to enjoy a bath without using excessive amounts of water. Water saving baths save water by design: either the overflow is dropped down to reduce capacity or the shape is altered to reduce the baths capacity whilst maintaining the water depth. Always ensure the house has a bath and a shower, or a shower only, as the water calculator will calculate a high consumption figure if there is only a bath in the dwelling.

LOW FLUSH WCs SANITARYWARE

IDEAL STANDARD LOW FLUSH WCs
As in most areas of water consumption it is important to balance the optimum use of water against the performance of the product. Some Ideal Standard WCs now flush on as low as 4/2.6 litres of water (dual flush). Although they perform well to the regulations it wouldnt be advisable to install these in an old property where the pipework between the house and the main sewer may block if low volumes of water are used.
Water usage by WC flush

There is a big difference in water usage in the Calculator when using different WCs: Cistern capacity 6 litre 6/4 litre Dual Flush 4/2.6 litre Dual Flush Water usage 26.52 litres 20.60 litres 13.54 litres

TAPS & MIXERS SANITARYWARE

IDEAL STANDARD TAPS & MIXERS
It is possible to reduce the flow from taps and mixers to achieve good performance whilst reducing the total water consumption. Consider having different flow rates in different rooms of the house. A cloakroom mixer does not require the same flow rate for simple hand washing as a basin mixer that will be used to fill a basin.
FLOW REGULATORS
There are two types of flow regulator that can be fitted. Some mixers use outlet regulators that are screwed onto or fitted into (cache) the outlet; some taps and mixers use inlet flow regulators that are fitted into the base of the fitting. Regulators are available in 5, 4 or 2 litres per minute.

AQUALISA VISAGE DIGITAL SHOWER
In addition to delivering a great, digital showering performance with spot-on temperatures and perfect pressure, Aqualisas Visage Digital also features a clever eco setting. Activated by a twist of the installers screwdriver during fitting, Visage Digitals eco setting is capable of reducing water flow down to around 8 litres per minute. Thats up to 10 litres less than an average shower might use and a big advantage for anyone looking for a greener showering solution. The shower is powered by Aqualisas clever, system specific digital processor, delivering a great shower, no matter the type of plumbing system. That means, regardless of gravity fed, combi or mains, hot and cold water supplies will be thermostatically blended, every single time.

KINGSPANWATER ENVIREAU GRAVITY SYSTEM
The Gravity System is ideal for domestic applications. It has a major advantage in that in the event of a power failure on site (or the rain stocks running dry) the system will automatically switch to mains water supply to ensure a continuity of service. The gravity system requires a header tank to complete the package. Kingspanwater supply a header tank as an optional extra which contains two independent valves operating both the mains and rainwater supply (we recommend a Kingspanwater header tank is used). The water from the header tank will flow by gravity to the serviced appliances. The system will always draw from the rainwater supply first.

Water
KINGSPANWATER ENVIREAU DIRECT SYSTEM

The Direct System is also suitable for domestic applications. This system is used where it is impractical to have a header tank for example in homes that have converted attic spaces and no room for a header tank. Therefore filtered rainwater is pumped direct from the holding tank to the various appliances. When the holding tank is running dry there is a small automatic charge of mains water into the storage tank to ensure the system never runs dry. The main advantage of this system is that rainwater is delivered to the appliances at mains pressure or higher.

ABOVE GROUND RAINWATER HARVESTING

HALSTED RAIN RAINWATER HARVESTING
Water is a precious and scarce natural resource and Government policy and building regulation is increasingly focused on encouraging greater water conservation. Today, planning consent and the award of Government funded building contracts is often conditional on being able to meet new water conservation standards. In the UK a typical family uses 70,000 litres of mains water each year for toilet flushing, laundry and garden irrigation and much of this could be replaced with rainwater. Actual savings depend on local rainfall patterns, the size of the roof catchment and the space available for water storage. The potential mains water savings in a light commercial building can be up to 80% of consumption. At Halsted Rain we understand that installing a rainwater harvesting system is often a compromise between available space, the utility required and budget. That is why we have designed a state-of-the-art above ground rainwater utilisation system for toilet flushing and irrigation that is visually discreet, easy to install and above all reliable. It is ideal for new build and retrofit projects alike. The system is modular and easy to configure to a range of layouts that make best use of the available space. Multiple tanks can be joined together using the coupling provided to achieve the desired rainwater storage capacity.

HALSTED RAIN RAINWATER HARVESTING

The Halsted Rain Slim-line range of integrated rainwater harvesting systems each comprises a filter, modular storage tank, pump and mains top up valve. Rain falling on a roof is channelled via the existing gutters and down pipe to a filter which removes leaf litter and other debris before diverting the water into a storage tank. The filter is mostly self cleaning and the tank is purpose designed to protect the quality of water during storage. When a utility demands rainwater a pump is automatically activated by a pressure switch to draw water from the tank. The Companys entry level compact low energy pump delivers a flow rate that is sufficient to refill a modern toilet cistern in less than a minute and other pump models are available for larger capacity systems and heavier duty requirements. In the event that demand exceeds the availability of rainwater, a mains water valve is automatically opened to partly refill the tank. The mains valve comprises a float switch activated valve and tundish to comply with water regulations. Utilities can be fed directly as depicted in the schematic below or indirectly by gravity via a header tank. The Super Slim Wall Tank is easy to mount on a building or integrate into a boundary fence using the steel support frame provided. The filter is installed in the existing down pipe and the pump and controls either inside the property or outside in a protective enclosure. Larger capacity tanks are free standing and the pump package is installed in the tank. Additional tanks can be coupled to the base unit to provide the capacity required. The layout for a Super Slim Wall Tank System is depicted below. A three tank system can typically save 20% of the mains water used in an average household. This equates to a potential saving of more than 30,000 litres or 66 per year in metered water charges and assumes a 3 person household with an average water bill of 342 using 153 litres per person a day. A larger Slimline Tower Tank system offers more than double these savings up to 50% of mains water used depending upon the size of the roof catchment and water usage.

GREYWATER RECYCLING SYSTEM

CME ECOPLAY SYSTEM
Ecoplay is a clever, low maintenance greywater solution, capable of radically reducing household water consumption. The concept behind Ecoplay is a simple one; instead of allowing all the water from the bath or shower to drain away, why not re-use it to flush the toilet? By diverting bathing or showering water to the Ecoplay system where it is treated and stored, Ecoplay can reduce water consumption and drainage loads in the average home by as much as 30%.
Fail to reach level 1 125 l/p/d
with
Pass level 3 & 4 105 l/p/d
the same home can achieve
Better still, it can offer a simple way of achieving a Code level 3 and 4 pass without any other modifications to existing supply systems or appliances - even with todays trend for high flow devices like power showers.
Recognition for Ecoplay Since its launch, Ecoplay has won several major awards for design and its contribution to the environment. It has also has received extensive coverage in the press:
The Ecoplay System can be used with a range of complementary products available from CME Sanitary Systems such as flushing push plates, as well as the Celmac toilet seat range. To view the full range of additional products visit www.cmesansys.com
Greywater
Water
Greywater supply with integral greywater sensor
How does the Ecoplay System work? For the user, the Ecoplay System works in exactly the same way as a standard toilet. Bath and or shower water collects in the cleaning tank. A skimmer removes light surface debris such as foam, hairs and soap, while heavier waste particles sink and are flushed away to waste. Clean water from the middle of the tank is the transferred to the storage tank. Combined storage capacity is 100 litres which provides approximately 15 flushes.

BUILD TO LAST
Constructive advice on sustainable building materials
When building from the ground up youre presented with a vast number of choices on the materials you use. Its the choices you make right at the beginning of the build that can make a massive difference to the sustainability of the project and the level you can achieve in compliance with the Code. Its not just the practical benefits certain materials give you but the way they are sourced and how they arrive at your site that can have an impact on your rating. This is where Ridgeons can help. We can supply a whole range of basic and finishing elements that are responsibly
sourced and environmentally efficient. The earlier you get us involved in your project, the more advice we can give you. You might be thinking of using timber, for example, which is an excellent way to boost environmental credentials, so long as it is sustainably sourced and certified. We can help you find just what you need. Many of our products are star rated under the BRE Green Guide, considered by many as the Bible for modern building methods. For more information on this and other products that could improve the Code level of your project, just ask a member of our team.
Building materials
The Builders Bible
The Green Guide is part of BRE (Buildings Research Establishment) and it is an accredited environmental rating scheme for all types of buildings, including domestic. It gives you a star rating on a whole range of sustainable products available and it evaluates the performance of materials and building systems against specific environmental impacts.

TIMBER FRAME
With the expansion of Ridgeons Timber Engineering Division and relocation into a purpose built manufacturing and office facility at Sudbury, we are happy to announce that we can now provide an even more comprehensive service to the building trade than ever before, providing the ultimate service for all your Timber Engineering needs. Pressures on the developer/builder to adopt environmentally friendly measures are becoming more apparent, with the government demanding all partners in the industry to contribute in reducing the impact of CO2 emissions. Planning and fiscal policy will favour green development; the thermal insulation standards of the Building Regulations will become even more demanding. Timber Frames environmental credentials and fast track production techniques can contribute towards achieving a sustainable community. Our experience covers a wide range of projects from single to multi-storey buildings. Our early involvement at design stage is essential to ensure a successful delivery of the building. Working closely with your design teams, we can address issues such as: CDM and Health & Safety along with the integration of mechanical and electrical installations and any relevant co-ordination issues. We offer the complete timber engineering package from soleplate to roof structure. We develop solutions with the building designer by way of early meetings to agree dimensions and architectural requirements. Timber frame drawings will be prepared and the detailed / engineered structural design agreed with the building designer before progressing to fabrication stage. We are able to provide warranties for all designs (subject to clauses). Ridgeons Timber Engineering Division offer fully integrated CAD engineering drawings, which enable us to provide manufacturing details for frame production quickly and accurately, increasing the predictability and pace of building programmes. Timber frame offers a fixed price, fixed term solution for the supply and erection of the superstructure to a building. Once the design is agreed, production details are produced in the form of material schedules, cutting data, panel fabrication details and structural nailing requirements. Timber is cut to length using automated saws, panels are then framed and structurally clad before the attachment of a breather membrane. We also certify material sourcing in accordance with recognised supply chain schemes. We operate chain of custody certification under PEFC and FSC. Installation is carried out by our specialist teams in accordance with the build programme. All relevant Health & Safety documents relating to our works, which include method statements, risk assessments, lifting plans etc are all part of the service. We do ask that the client provides all scaffolding and fall arrest systems, but these details are confirmed prior to us commencing on site.

INSULATION BUILDING MATERIALS

ECOTHERM ECO VERSAL ROOFING/FLOORING BOARD
superior rigid insulation
Description
Eco-Versal is rigid polyisocyanurate foam with aluminium foil composite on both sides. It is a universal high performance insulation used for a pitched roofs, floors, dormer cheeks and ceilings.
Single Layer Insulation

The boards are placed covering the whole roof area with the joints staggered and lightly butted. The insulation is then fixed by use of a vertical batten (minimum size 50mm x 25mm) placed above the insulation down the line of each rafter. The boards are secured by fixing through both the vertical battern and the EcoTherm insulation board. Install the breathable membrane as per manufacuter's instructions. The counter battens form the base for the fixing of the tile or slate laths. Fix using proprietary fixings ensuring a minimum 38mm depth of penetration.
Applications
Applications include upgrading the thermal performance of existing building elements, providing a cost effective means of reducing CO2 emissions and for compliance with Building Regulations. Ideal for: Floors Pitched roof/Cold flat roofs Walls Room-in-the-roof applications Both new build and renovations Dependant on the designed inulation value and the available headroom, rafter and/or barge board depth, different approaches can be taken.
Between & Under Rafter Insulation

Cut the insulation tight between the rafters leaving a 50mm clear cavity above the insulation and below the breathable membrane. Fix a secondary layer of Eco-Versal to the underside of the rafter and cover with 12.5mm plaster board or use EcoTherm's Eco-Liner Fix thermal laminate board.
Between & Over Rafter Insulation

The procedure for double layer insulation is similar to between and under. i.e. Cut the insulation tight and push up against the top rafters. Install the other-thicker-layer of insulation over the top and secure with a vertical batten down the line of each rafter. Install the breathable membrane as per manufacturers instructions.

INSULATION BUILDING
SUPERGLASS INSULATION
SUSTAINABILITY Mineral wool is the United Kingdoms leading choice of building insulation product due to its recognized versatility and all round performance. There are many different insulation types on the market today, but only mineral wool products have sustainability credentials combined with proven thermal, acoustic & fire properties, providing the best insulation value. With increasing pressures on our fragile environment, focus is sharpening on the ways in which more environmentally friendly products and methods can be developed. In the building industry this translates to sustainable building practices and sustainable development. Superglass mineral wool insulation products contribute significantly towards sustainable building practices and can assist architects and designers in their pursuit of buildings that: 1 demonstrate reduced energy consumption 2 result in reduced green house gas emissions 3 contain higher levels of recycled material 4 require reduced consumption of natural resources ENERGY Energy efficiency is a major element in the global battle against climate change. One of the most important environmental benefits of Superglass products is the reduction of energy used to maintain the temperature of a building when mineral fibre has been installed. A comfortable living environment and reduced levels of energy consumption can be gained from a well insulated building. Substantial levels of energy are saved during a Superglass products lifetime compared to the energy input required for its production. For each tonne of CO2 emitted during manufacture, Superglass can save up to 200 tonnes of CO2 during its lifetime use. GREENHOUSE GASES Global warming is now acknowledged by many as one of the worlds most pressing environmental problems and reduced energy consumption means less greenhouse gas emissions to atmosphere. The optimum use of mineral wool insulation in buildings will greatly reduce the greenhouse gases associated with heating and ventilation. Superglass insulation products do not contain agents that produce greenhouse gases and are recognized as inherently having a Global Warming Potential (GWP) and Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of zero. RECYCLED CONTENT The use of recycled material in building products makes environmental sense. Maximising recycled content minimises the use of the natural resources that would normally be used in the manufacture of Superglass products. This diverts the recycled material away from scarce land fill sites and allows for a more energy efficient manufacturing process. Superglass insulation products have in excess of 80% recycled material in the finished item. This recycled content includes large quantities of: Post consumer waste i.e. glass bottles collected and processed locally Pre consumer waste i.e. production scrap from the primary manufacturing process

SUPERGLASS INSULATION
CONSUMPTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES In a world where the unfettered use of finite quantities of raw materials is unsustainable, steps are needed to protect and use these valuable natural resources as efficiently as possible. Whether these natural resources are carbon based fuels or other extracted minerals Government is now looking for ways through statutory and regulatory means that will contribute to their conservation for future generations. Superglass insulation is an integral component in the armoury of any builder or designer looking to help conserve these resources. CONCLUSION Superglass products contribute to the goals of energy savings, emission reductions, air quality improvement and sustainable development. They are widely available with a proven technology that begins saving money and emissions from the moment they are installed in a building and continue to do so for the lifetime of that building.

NEWBUILD FRAMES LTD - A RATED ENERGY RATED WINDOW SYSTEM

Why reduce energy use in new housing? There are many reasons why it is important to reduce energy use in the UKs housing stock, but probably the most important is listed under the following heading. Climate change It is now generally accepted that man-made CO2 emissions are the main cause of climate change. CO2 and to a lesser extent other gases such as methane and nitrous oxide, in the atmosphere create a greehouse effect. Most scientists now agree that there is a direct correlation between higher CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere and increasing global temperature and that to restore balance, man-made emissions of CO2 must be reduced as a matter of urgency.
NEWBUILD FRAMES LTD - A RATED ENERGY RATED WINDOW SYSTEM

Choosing energy efficient windows is a simple, practical way to make a difference The Government has set itself a specific target of ensuring all new homes built after 2016 are zero carbon. This is in addition to the general requirement of an overall carbon emission reduction as set out by the Kyoto agreement The highlight this topic and enable a system which is both an independent source of information and also easy to understand, the BRFC (British Fenestration Rating Council) working in conjuction with Energy Efficiency Council, have created a performance label clearly defining the energy efficiency of building products from any manufacturer. Launched in March 2004, the Window Energy Rating label is similar to that used on many goods in our homes, such as fridges and washing machines. Building products are scored on a scale of A-G, with an A rated building product being more energy efficient than one which is G rated. Those which are given a rating of C and higher are recognised as energy efficient, and can officially be endorsed with Energy Saving Recommended logo.

ECOLIBRIUM PAINT
Ecolibrium Natural Paint is the latest addition to the award winning* Ecolibrium range from Blackfriar Paints. Building on the success of the Ecolibrium range of eco-friendly garden furniture treatments, comes the result of over three years research and development designed to deliver a premium quality, naturally-formulated, paint that not only looks incredible but performs brilliantly - whilst at the same time being exceptionally kind to the environment. Unlike conventional paint - which is normally made with derivatives of petrochemical oil - Ecolibrium Natural Paint is made with sustainable plant oils, water and earth pigments. In fact, it contains over 90% natural ingredients. While other paints continue to rely heavily on diminishing, non-renewable resources in their production, Ecolibrium works hard to restore the natural balance. Where in the past natural paints have delivered on either sustainability or performance, the key difference with Ecolibrium is that it delivers on both fronts. The paint has minimal environmental impact and delivers superior opacity, colour consistency, finish and ease of application when compared to its more synthetic counterparts. In short, it behaves exactly how youd expect a premium paint to do, but in an environmentally friendly manner. Ecolibrium Natural Paint is available in Natural Matt Emulsion (2.5 litres) - for walls and ceilings - and Natural Satin - for doors, skirting and trims. To assist with colour selection, a full range of Tester tins (125ml) is also available. The range is supported by a comprehensive range of eco-friendly POS including chip-mounted shade cards and header display boards. The Ecolibrium colour palette is both inspired and created by the natural environment. Earth pigments and minerals, from well-managed sources, are blended to produce deep rich shades and soft, light neutrals in a range of beautiful natural colours.

WATER WATER EVERYWHERE

Deal with the problem of excess water with Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUDS) from Ridgeons
Surface water run off might only account for 2% of the Code for Sustainable Homes, but the tangible benefits of fitting SUDS (Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems) into a new or existing home are becoming more and more obvious. News of wide spread flooding is reported with increasing frequency and the devastation this causes is hard to put a price on. The clean up costs alone can cripple individuals without adequate insurance. We think this more than makes the case for installing SUDS. Take a look around many suburban areas and youll see many concrete driveways, giving excess storm and floodwater nowhere to go. This is what SUDS are designed to tackle. By giving the surface water somewhere to go there is less water left above ground to build up and cause flooding. They are often simple to install, which makes them a worthwhile recommendation to your customers.
There are many different types of SUDS available and the team at Ridgeons can help you decide which will work best with your project. Take a look at our Green Light products, all of which are recommended for domestic use.
Surface Water Run-off

Sustainable Urban Drainage (SUDS)
As defined in the SuDS manual, sustainable drainage systems are an approach to surface water management that combines a sequence of management practices and control structures designed to drain surface water in a more sustainable fashion than some conventional techniques. These systems infiltrate, store, convey and partially treat surface water runoff, which minimises environmental impact and maximises environmental opportunities. SuDS should aim to maximise the use of on-the-surface techniques for operational and maintenance reasons.

WHAT TO DO WITH WATER

The assessment criteria and mandatory expectations for surface water run-off
The aim of this section of the Code for Sustainable Homes is to ensure that housing developments are designed to avoid, reduce and delay the discharge of rainfall to public sewers and watercourses. This will protect watercourses and reduce the risk of localised ooding, pollution and other environmental damage. This section of the Code is vital to safeguard against the devastating oods of recent years by improving the management and re-use of water run-off.

Management of Surface Water Run-off from Developments
Sur 1
Surface Water Run-off
Assessment criteria: Surface water run off

Criteria
Mandatory elements must be achieved, which are listed below. Up to 2 credits are available for further improving management of rainfall run off.
Credits
Hydraulic Control Criteria The SuDS Management Train should be used as a guide to achieve the following: 1) Peak Rate of Run-off If there is no increase in the man-made impermeable area as a result of the new development, then the peak rate of run-off criterion does not apply. Where there is an increase in impermeable area, ensure that the peak rate of run-off over the development lifetime, allowing for climate change, will be no greater for the developed site than it was for the pre-development site. This should comply at the 1 year1 and 100 year2 return period events (see Calculation Procedures). Where the pre-development peak rate of run-off for the site would result in a requirement for the post-development ow rate (referred to as the limiting discharge) to be less than 5 l/s at a discharge point, a ow rate of up to 5 l/s may be used where required to reduce the risk of blockage. Note: If as a result of the new development, there is an increase in the volume of run-off discharged for the 100 year 6 hour event and section 2A cannot be met (see section 2 below), these run-off rates do not apply. 2) Volume of Run-off If there is no increase in the man-made impermeable area as a result of the new development, then the volume of run-off criteria does not apply. If the developed site would otherwise discharge, over the development lifetime allowing for climate change, a greater volume of rainwater run-off than the pre-development site for the 100 year 6 hour event, (see Calculation Procedures) then criterion A applies. If A cannot be satised then B applies. A: Ensure that the post development volume of run-off, allowing for climate change over the development lifetime, is no greater than it would have been before the development. The additional predicted volume of run-off for the 100 year 6 hour event must be prevented from leaving the site by using inltration or other SuDS techniques (see Denitions). OR B: If A cannot be satised (full justication must be provided) then reduce the post development peak rate of run-off to the limiting discharge. The limiting discharge is the pre-development ow rate equivalent to the 1-year peak ow rate, mean annual ood ow rate (Qbar) or 2 l/s/ha, whichever is the highest ow rate. For the 1-year peak ow rate the 1 year return period event criterion in section 1 above, applies. For all other events up to the 100 year return period event, the peak rate of run-off for the developed site must not exceed the limiting discharge. Where the limiting discharge ow rate would require a ow rate of less than 5 l/s at a discharge point, a ow rate of up to 5 l/s may be used where required to reduce the risk of blockage. Note: Criterion B generally results in more storage than compliance with criterion A. 3) Designing for local drainage system failure. Demonstrate that the ooding of property would not occur in the event of local drainage system failure (caused either by extreme rainfall or a lack of maintenance). Note: Where the run-off is being discharged into an existing drainage system, the responsible body may stipulate a more stringent set of hydraulic ow rate criterion which will therefore take precedence. Water Quality Criteria 1. One credit can be awarded by ensuring there is no discharge from the developed site for rainfall depths up to 5 mm (see Calculation Procedures). 2. One credit can be awarded by ensuring that: The run-off from all hard surfaces shall receive an appropriate level of treatment in accordance with The SuDS Manual to minimise the risk of pollution. Note: The SuDS Manual best practice recommendations should be followed where there is a risk to groundwater from inltration (for example contaminated land, developments with high risk of pollution incidents) Default Cases: The mandatory criteria can be deemed to be met by default if the site discharges rainwater directly to a tidal estuary or the sea. Credits cannot be awarded unless the relevant water quality criteria are met. 1 1

SUSTAINABLE DRAINAGE SYSTEMS (SUDS)

BRETT PERMEABLE PAVING
Why Sustainable Drainage? Sustainability is today a major factor within the construction industry, influenced by both planning guidance and legislation. In most cases, we can see that the key drivers behind this change are the conservation and management of two of our most precious commodities energy and water. It is for this reason that Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS) are becoming an essential component of our built environment, as they add value to all three areas of sustainability. The effective integration of SUDS into master planning, for both urban as well as residential developments, will enable us to better manage our water resources. As a long established manufacturer and supplier to the built environment, Brett recognises its responsibility to develop, promote and support products, including permeable paving, for use within SUDS design. These products must be capable of seamless integration into all forms of the hard landscaped environment to enhance water quality, minimise flood risk and improve the management of our most valuable natural resource - water. The effective use of SUDS can help to mitigate the impact of the more extreme weather events that we are seeing as a result of changing climate patterns and of our ever increasing demands on land usage.

Sustainable Drainage Systems Surface Water Run-off

Growing urbanisation has resulted in the increase of impermeable areas - roads, driveways, parking facilities, pedestrianisation and roof surfaces. This, coupled with higher density patterns of construction, has led to ever-larger areas with very rapid water run off and a proportionately reduced area where natural, permeable drainage can occur in a controlled manner. This means that rainfall moves very quickly from impermeable hard surfaces through to watercourse with little reduction in either volume or speed. In turn, this means that there exists a progressively higher risk of flooding. Permeable paving has the ability to attenuate the speed and volume of run off, thereby minimising local flood risks and collectively, mitigating flood risk over larger areas.
The Urbanisation: Run Off Equation The speed of water run off can vary by up to 90% from an undeveloped rural area through to a heavily urbanised area, as we can see from the illustrations below. Given increasing urbanisation, the new agricultural techniques and rapid expansion of cities and transport infrastructure that we have seen over the past century, the risks from faster run off and more pollution are obvious.

Pollution Another direct result of the increase in urbanisation is the environmental pollution from hydrocarbons and heavy metals resulting from vehicle usage and power generation. These come on top of the other water contaminants like dust and faeces that occur within an urban environment. Fast and uncontrolled surface water run off carries this pollution with it almost undiluted, directly into our water courses, where it can be harmful to our wildlife.
Changing Weather Patterns Climate change is an inevitable factor for us all: in the UK the effects have been seen in warmer, wetter, weather with more frequent extreme rainfall events. This storm water drains rapidly from the typical urban environment, causing an early peak in flow rates that can overwhelm older sewers, many of which date back to the Victorian era, and trigger a widespread flooding event. This can be contrasted with how SUDS replicate the natural flow of water with a higher base flow, as water is retained in the system, leading to a reduced and delayed peak flow rate. This serves to greatly reduce the risk of a major flood event as well as offsetting the effects of climate change and urbanisation.

Using Permeable Paving in Suds Management Train Schemes Management train or treatment train are terms used for an integrated sequence of measures employed in a SUDS scheme which, taken together, control volumes of run off and reduce pollution before discharge. These measures are designed to emulate the natural catchment process. The critical function of any SUDS system is to control surface water run off as near to its point of origin, that is where the rain falls and/or accumulates, as possible. Termed source control, this can mitigate the speed of run off, direct and guide it before finally controlling its passage off or through the surface. Permeable paving, when used as part of a SUDS management train design, is used to control run off by infiltration and attenuation, whilst at the same time, introducing various levels of pollution control.

Run off to grass
Storage
1. Prevention good site design and effective housekeeping measures can help minimise run off and pollution levels. These approaches should generally be included within the site management plan to ensure that they are implemented.
Infiltration
Conveyance
2. Source control effective control of run off at or very near its source, this can be achieved with features such as green roofs, soakaways, rain gardens and permeable pavements. When rainwater is harvested on site it can be re-used as a source of non-potable grey water thereby reducing the demand for fresh mains water.
Evapotranspiration
Conveyance
3. Site control planned management of water in a local area or site examples would include routing water from building roofs and car parks to soakaway or infiltration areas and then to storm tanks or a detention basin thereby attenuating the flow of water entering the system after a storm event. 4. Regional control designing a system that can efficiently manage the run off from a site, or several sites, typically resulting in a balancing pond or wetland. This provides a natural method of handling excess water thereby reducing the risk of flooding events.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

INTESIO AQUACELL
Development of sites results in a large proportion of area being covered by impermeable surfaces such as roofs, car parks and roads. Surface water run-off therefore increases up to 80%. Regulators (Environment Agency, Scottish Environment Protection Agency and local authorities) are promoting the use of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) that control run-off to that of a greenfield site (around 20%). Wavin Stormwater Management Systems have been developed to provide a method of source control in two ways: By providing temporary storage for excess flows and limiting outflow to streams and rivers. By providing soakaways to infiltrate stormwater back into the ground. The modular nature of Wavin Stormwater Management Systems means that they can be tailored to suit the specific requirements of each site. They can be used to provide temporary storage, attenuation and infiltration capacity for run-off for all sizes and types of site: from individual houses up to the largest commercial developments. The systems comprise: AquaCell Storage/Infiltration System Individual polypropylene modules assembled together to form an underground structure, used for stormwater storage or as a soakaway.

INTESIO AQUACELL
The Wavin AquaCell Stormwater Management System comprises individual infiltration modules assembled together to form an underground structure which can either be used for stormwater storage or as an alternative to domestic soakaways. The AquaCell Stormwater Management System is fully BBA (British Board of Agrment) approved, Certificate No. 03/4018, and can meet with the Technical Requirements of NHBC. Heavy storms and major cloudbursts are becoming more frequent, resulting in ever increasing volumes of stormwater flowing into conventional drainage systems and water courses. When the capacities of these systems are exceeded the consequences can be dramatic and damaging. Stormwater must be controlled; either by limiting the outflow and providing temporary storage or where the ground conditions are suitable, providing soakaways for the stormwater to infiltrate back into the surrounding ground. This has the added benefit of recharging the local groundwater. Both options can be achieved using the Wavin AquaCell Stormwater Management System.

STORMWATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

INTESIO AQUACELL SYSTEM OVERVIEW
AquaCell System The Wavin AquaCell unit is modular in shape (1.0m x 0.5m x 0.4m), has a capacity of 190 litres and weighs 9Kg. It is 95% void and has a surface area that is 43% perforated. Conical columns within the unit ensure high strength and rigidity. The AquaCell units are clipped together in single layers and pegged together in multiple layers. Conventional pipework is connected to the units by means of a number of adaptors. Control Manhole This manhole is designed to limit the downstream discharge using an outflow control and if necessary redirect the excess stormwater via an overflow control into the AquaCell units. Geomembrane/Geotextile Wrap An impermeable geomembrane wrap is required for storage solutions and a permeable geotextile wrap is required for soakaway solutions. Manifold Configuration A junctioned pipework assembly providing a controlled multiple feed of stormwater into the AquaCell Units. The configuration is tailored to suit the capacity required upon entry into the AquaCell Unit assembly and upon discharging to the control manhole. HOW IT WORKS Stormwater exceeding the capacity of the conventional drainage system is attenuated by the control manhole and channelled into the AquaCell unit assembly. The internal structure of each unit is designed to bring surging water under control and hold it in temporary storage. If the wrap that envelopes the unit assembly is impermeable the water will remain in the unit assembly until such a time as it can flow back into the control chamber and discharge through the outflow control. However if the wrap is permeable, the temporarily stored water may be released into the surrounding ground; soil conditions permitting. By controlling the stormwater at source and recharging the local groundwater it not only eases the pressure on conventional drainage systems but benefits the local environment as well. KEY BENEFITS Significantly reduced risk of flooding and its consequences. Controlled and reduced volume discharge into existing main sewer systems and water courses. Aerobic purification stimulated within the system improves water quality. Sustainable, cost effective management of the water environment. Recharging the local groundwater.

GREEN ROOFS
IKO GREEN ROOFS

Why have green roof systems?
Urban development over the last 50 years has led to the paving over large areas of countryside with cities and supporting infrastructure. Even the traditional areas of parkland and green spaces within our cities have come under increasing pressure. High rise development in major cities reduces the natural airflow, adding to dirt and pollution, higher temperatures and lower humidity levels. Green roofs improve air quality by attracting particles to the vegetation and soil. Plants also absorb airborne pollutants through the leaves, removing them from the environment, and during the natural process of photosynthesis, plants convert carbon dioxide to oxygen, which improves the immediate air quality. In addition, cities and industrial areas are increasingly impervious to water, reducing permeable ground to absorb rainwater run-off. Hard construction materials (concrete, tarmac roadways, roof tiles etc.) discharge water very quickly, reducing effective evaporation and loading the drainage systems, which in turn can lead to flooding. Green roofs retain a very high percentage of rainwater and provide slow, controlled water run-off - thereby reducing the load and allowing much faster evaporation of accumulated moisture. Replacing land lost to construction by landscaping the roofs of our buildings can help to redress the balance of nature by significantly improving air quality and reducing water run-off. Green roofs can improve the acoustics, thermal properties and aesthetic qualities, while also providing additional space for recreational and leisure purposes. And they significantly increase the life of the waterproofing membrane, protecting it from UV degradation and the extremes of climatic conditions.

Features and benefits
Acoustic performance Improvements to the acoustic performance when installing a green roof finish can play an importantpart in the overall soundproofing of the building. Indicative figures for potential sound reduction can be provided on request. Water retention (reducing storm water run-off) The reduction in storm water run-off is a major benefit. From the results gained by practical trials, the average extensive system can absorb approximately 50% of the rainwater falling on it, and also significantly delay the passage of the remaining water, reducing the pressure on drainage facilities and flooding. Intensive systems incorporating sufficient soil depth to support planting schemes, can retain up to 75% of rainfall. Tests have also indicated that greater soil depths may retain up to 90% of rainfall. Thermal transmission In addition to the thermal insulation installed as part of the waterproofing system, green roofs can further reduce the energy consumption of a building by up to 10%. Full thermal analysis can be carried out on the specified build-up. Green roof features and benefits Enhances environment Improves aesthetic appearance Controls storm water run-off into surface water drainage system Reduces noise transmission by upgrading acoustic performance Improves thermal performance Improves ambient air quality Increases life expectancy of waterproofing membrane Extensive green roofs require little long-term maintenance Intensive roof gardens can be accessed for recreational use

GREEN ROOFS
IKO GREEN ROOFS

What are the green roofs options?
Extensive green roofs These are construction using low maintenance planting, without the need for specific irrigation. Sedums (succulents) and indigenous herbs and grasses provide excellent cover and protection to the waterproofing system. They do not provide usable space or a surface that can be trafficked, but add instantly to the aesthetics, improve the local air quality and help to control rainwater run-off into surface water drainage systems. In addition, a correctly designed system upgrades the acoustic and thermal performance of roof finishes.
Intensive roof gardens The landscape variations are practically limitless, and it is feasible to create an environment at roof level similar to that of any designed garden. An increased quantity of growing medium, improved drainage layers and irrigation systems are generally required to support the greater diversity of planting. Shrubs and trees can easily be accommodated, and there is little to restrict scope for design other than the overall weight of the system and the cost of its supporting construction.
Biodiversity roofs These are another form of extensive green roof (i.e. low maintenance) that make use of recycled materials (e.g. crushed brick, crushed concrete etc.) in the growing medium. This type of green roof is intended to create a natural wasteland and can be seeded initially with selected species to createsome growth. However the basic design is to attract fauna and flora of all kinds. As the growing medium is not of high nutritional value, larger plants are not likely to survive and will die off creating further suitable habitat for invertebrates which in turn will attract other fauna.

Generic Denitions
BRE Building Research Establishment BREEAM Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method. A suite of environmental assessment rating tools designed, operated and owned by BRE, first launched in 1990. Carbon dioxide An invisible odorless gas which is the by product of energy generated from fossil fuels including gas, oil and coal. It is a significant contributor to global warming and climate change. Communities and Local Government UK Government Department responsible for Communities and Local Government; owners of the CSH. Code See Code for Sustainable Homes Code for Sustainable Homes Government owned environmental assessment method for certifying and rating new homes in England. It was launched in April 2007. CSH Code for Sustainable Homes (see Code for Sustainable Homes) EcoHomes BREEAM Version for new homes, first launched in 2000 and now replaced in England for new dwellings by the Code. EcoHomes remains in operation for refurbished homes in the UK, and all dwellings in Scotland. EPC The Energy Performance Certificate records a homes energy and CO2 emission performance rating which is calculated using SAP for dwellings. Energy Performance Certificates display the energy efficiency of a home on a scale of A-G. The most efficient homes which should have the lowest fuel bills are in band A. The Certificate also shows, on a scale of A-G, the environmental impact of the home. Further information available from www.homeinformationpacks.gov.uk. FLOW RESTRICTOR An accessory or included fitting which provides a fixed amount of obstruction in a water supply. This has the effect of causing less water to flow from it than would otherwise flow from a fully open outlet.
FLOW REGULATOR An accessory or included fitting which only provides an obstruction in a water supply, but also has a limited ability to compensate for changing pressures within that supply helping to provide a consistent reduction in flow to particular valve (e.g. 6 litres/ minute) EST The Energy Savings Trust was established by the UK government in 1993 following the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro. EST provides independent evidence-based policy analysis on energy efficiency, small-scale renewable technologies such as Solar PV, Small Scale Wind and Ground Source Heat Pumps and clean, low carbon transport, covering both the UK and Europe. Further information available from www.energysavingstrust.org.uk THERMOSTATIC Any shower, tap or bath mixer described as thermostatic has hot and cold water supplying it and has the means of keeping its water temperature stable once set without manual adjustment. To a greater or lesser extent the valve will also have the ability to gradually stop all water flowing out of the product when either the hot or cold supply is turned off. MINIMUM OPERATING PRESSURE Denotes the amount of pressure required to get water coming out of the fitting. This does not take account of any particular flow rate (which normally very low in systems operating close to this threshold) it is simply the minimum pressure required to have the fitting physically operating. TMV3 SCHEME Generally accompanied by a logo, this denotes that the fitting is suitable for use in a healthcare environment. The TMV3 logo can only be displayed as a result of independent testing by water industry experts. TMV2 SCHEME Generally accompanied by a logo, this denotes that the fitting is suitable for use in general domestic environments. The TMV2 Logo can only be displayed as a result of independent testing by water industry experts. WRAS APPROVAL Water Regulations Advisory Scheme Approval denotes that a product has been independently tested and found to be compliant with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations and the Scottish Byelaws.
