Standard Assessment Procedure
The Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) is the UK Government’s methodology for assessing and comparing the energy and environmental performance of dwellings.
When is a SAP assessment required?
A SAP assessment is required for all new dwellings, conversions, and certain extensions to demonstrate compliance with Part L1A and L1B of the Building Regulations.
How does SAP work?
A SAP assessment is carried out in two stages: the design stage and the as-built (post-construction) stage.
Upon completion, an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is produced. This is required for Building Control approval and for marketing the property for sale or rental. An EPC is valid for 10 years.
