Ensure comfort and compliance with Building Regulations Part O through our Overheating Assessments. Peter Deer & Associates delivers comprehensive evaluations and tailored solutions to mitigate overheating risks in buildings.
Achieve comfort and compliance with
overheating assessments.
Comprehensive
Evaluation
Our Overheating Assessments rigorously evaluate building designs to identify potential overheating risks. Using advanced simulation tools and data-driven analysis, we assess factors such as solar gain, ventilation, thermal mass, and internal heat sources. This detailed evaluation ensures compliance with Building Regulations Part O and optimizes indoor comfort for occupants.
Mitigation
Strategies
We develop tailored mitigation strategies to address overheating challenges identified during assessments. These strategies may include passive design measures, such as shading devices, natural ventilation strategies, thermal insulation improvements, and building orientation optimizations. By integrating these solutions into building designs, we enhance thermal comfort while maintaining energy efficiency and regulatory compliance.
Simulation and
Analysis
Peter Deer & Associates utilizes state-of-the-art simulation software to model thermal performance and predict overheating risks in buildings. Our detailed analysis considers climate data, building orientation, occupancy patterns, and internal heat gains to simulate real-world conditions accurately. This simulation-driven approach enables us to recommend effective design modifications and ensure buildings meet thermal comfort standards.
Compliance and
Certification
We assist clients in achieving Building Regulations Part O compliance and obtaining necessary certifications. Our team provides documentation and technical reports required for planning submissions, building control approval, and environmental assessments. With our expertise in overheating assessments, clients benefit from streamlined compliance processes and enhanced building performance.
