Services efficiency improvements in assessments against Part 1 only

Where Parts 2 or 3 are not being assessed, improvements to the performance of the building services cannot be recognised, whether these be designed or consequential. In order to fully recognise the fabric efficiency improvements, however, where changes to the building services have been made, the post-refurbishment services performance values should be used for both pre-and post-refurbishment.

Where a project seeks recognition of improvements to the performance of the building services, this must be assessed against Part 2 or 3.
