Erratum – References to Part F sections 5 and 7 - KBCN1607

In BREEAM Domestic Refurbishment we refer to the 2013 version of Part F where the section numbers differ from the current version of Part F. Please follow the following updated criteria which has the correct references to Part F: One credit — minimum ventilation requirements One credit can be awarded where the following whole dwelling is brought up to the following ventilation requirements: 1          A minimum level of background ventilation is provided (with trickle ventilators or other means of ventilation) for all habitable rooms, kitchens, utility rooms and bathrooms compliant with Section 3, Building Regulations Approved Document Part F, 2010. 2          A minimum level of extract ventilation is provided in all wet rooms (e.g. kitchen, utility and bathrooms), compliant with Section 1, Building Regulations Approved Document Part F 2010. 3          A minimum level of purge ventilation is provided in all habitable rooms and wet rooms, compliant with Section 3, Building Regulations Approved Document Part F, 2010. 4          The building is a historic building (CN4) and meets the requirements for historic buildings below. Two credits — advanced ventilation Two credits can be awarded where: 5          Ventilation is provided for the dwelling that meets the requirements of Section 1 of Building Regulations Part F in full. 6          Where the building is a historic building and meets the requirements for historic buildings (CN4). This is correcting the references within Part F which were not updated in the manual when Part F was updated.
