VE-Navigator for UK Compliance

Our patented VE-Navigator technology provides you with a robust and detailed step-by-step structured workflow for Part L2 compliance and EPC generation for 2013 (England), 2014 (Wales) and 2010 (England/Wales).

• England & Wales Compliance.
• Part L2 2013 (England), 2014 (Wales) and 2010 (England/Wales) compliance checks.
• 2013 (England), 2014 (Wales) and 2010 (England/Wales) EPC generation.
• Both SBEM and/or DSM methodology.
• Revolutionary easy to use step-by-step guidance from model setup, to data assignment, to simulation.
• Concise reporting with interactive filters for easy interrogation.
• Unique built-in QA functionality – design team collaboration and tracking.
• Improved modelling efficiency and accuracy.
• Significant time saving leading to rapid iteration.

This innovative tool streamlines the process and ensures no step is missed.The navigators provide:

• Step-by-step guidance and instruction across compliance rules and process
• Confidence that each key stage has been addressed
• Unique reports which compare Notional and Actual models (DSM)
• Identifies key areas where design ratings can be improved (DSM)
• Unique built in QA functionality
  • Design team collaboration: add and share notes
  • Track team progress: date/user stamp check box
  • Integrated guidance notes
• Analysis Automation

For both Part L2A 2013 & 2010 DSM the Navigator analyses the results of the regulations calculation and provides guidance to help streamline the design process to produce a minimally compliant building by providing two main outputs:

• ‘Key model inputs comparison’
  • Quick check assessment for use at early project stages
  • Demonstrates whether you stand a good chance of passing or not
  • Clearly shows what level of efficiencies the project is likely to achieve
• ‘Identify dominant issues for improvement’
  • Quickly achieve the efficiencies required for compliance
  • Tailored guidance on where to focus your efforts based on your design
  • Identifies which strategies will be the most effective in reducing dominant loads

Dependant on the route to compliance and whether the project is a level 3, 4 or 5 building the Navigators produce specific tailored reportage: 

• Part L2A 2013 & 2010 SBEM
  • SBEM calculations summary
  • SBEM calculation details
  • BRUKL document
  • EPC
     
• Part L2A 2013 & 2010 DSM
  • Pass Results (BER/TER)
  • Carbon dioxide emissions summary
  • Energy summary
  • Actual Building – carbon & energy breakdown (heat, cool, AUX, lights, DHW)
  • Actual System – carbon & energy breakdown
  • Notional System – carbon & energy breakdown
  • Notional Building – carbon & energy breakdown
  • Criterion 3 solar gain check
  • BRUKL document
  • EPC
