Energy Performance Certificate (APE) for a residential property in Olgiate Molgora
An Energy Performance Certificate (APE) was prepared for a residential property in Olgiate Molgora. This document certifies the property's energy performance and determines its energy rating in accordance with applicable regulations.
The work involved a detailed analysis of the building's construction characteristics and installed building services to assess its overall energy efficiency.
Energy demand for winter heating and domestic hot water production (DHW) was calculated, analysing system efficiency and the performance of the building envelope. The thermal transmittance of opaque and glazed elements was also assessed, a key factor in determining the building's heat losses.
Specifically, the activities included:
survey of the property's characteristics and installations;
calculation of energy demand for heating and DHW production;
assessment of the building envelope's thermal transmittance;
analysis of building services efficiency in accordance with applicable regulations;
preparation of the Energy Performance Certificate (APE) and assignment of the property's energy rating.
The APE is an essential document for property sales and lettings, and also provides useful guidance for identifying potential energy-efficiency improvements.
