WELCOME

Yourspace Specialist Energy Services is a service offered by Isle of Man Infrared Ltd and our fully Accredited Assessors are passionate about the Built environment, energy conservation and reducing carbon emissions. We are based on the Isle of Man but as the Assessments are desk based we cover anywhere in the UK. We know the value and hard work you have invested in what is important to you. Working along side you to produce any of the following, Building Regulations Approved Document L SAP Assessment's for new build domestic dwellings, Conversions, Conservatories including overglazed extensions . As part of the above services we complete detailed layer by layer analysis of the building material to calculate heat loss, this is known as a U-Value, and detailed linear thermal transmittance or PSI values measuring the additional heat loss of building junctions, which play a pivotal in role in energy performance. This service is offered as a stand alone service to assist with identifying the most suitable building material for a project. We also offer an Infrared Service for existing built environments where you think an issue may exist or you believe an element has failed e.g. Insulation.

New Built SAP Assessments 

It is a legal requirement for all new build domestic properties to have a SAP Assessment carried out at design stage, then an As-built SAP Assessment and EPC at the end of construction.

Conversion SAP Assessments

A SAP Calculation is required if your project is, a barn conversion or is a change of use from a commercial property to a residential dwelling , or from a single dwelling into flats. 

Over Glazed Extension SAP Assessment / Heat Loss Calculations

If you plan an extension where the new glazing exceeds 25% of the floor area of the extension plus the area of openings that no longer exist as a result of the work, you will require a SAP Calculation.

Psi-Value Calculations

For building designers and specifiers, PSI values aren't just a theoretical metric. They're a critical tool for for adopting a fabric-first approach in projects. Proper junction detailing, combined with precise psi value calculation and accurate on site construction, paves the way for buildings with high energy efficiency, ensuring optimal comfort, health and conditions. 

U-Value Calculations

U-Value (are an integral part of any SAP assessment) of a building element is the measure of the rate of heat flow through the element.

Condensation Assessments

Increasing levels of insulation, cladding materials and new methods of construction, can often cause increased risk of condensation in buildings. Condensation can give rise to serious problems with surface staining to long term degradation of building structure.
