Hello everyone,
My architect called me today and said he can’t meet the energy value requirements for the 2016 energy-saving regulation. We might have to reduce the number of windows or redesign parts of the plan, add more insulation, and so on. By now, I feel like this architect doesn’t really know what he’s doing. He’s already made repeated mistakes on the drawings and seems unable to properly use his software.
The plan is for a small bungalow with a 35° roof that can be converted if needed. The wall is designed with 17.5 cm (7 inches) Poroton blocks, 12 cm (5 inches) insulation, and 11.5 cm (4.5 inches) facing brick. Now he says the energy value is far from the target and we might need to use wooden windows, fewer windows, etc... ?!?!?!?
That’s not normal, right? He must be doing something wrong. I haven’t even planned a single window on the north side!
I urgently need your expert advice!!!
Attached is the floor plan of my ground floor (south is at the bottom).
Best regards,
Christian

Or outsource the thermal insulation certificate to someone who does this professionally. If the architect can’t even correctly fill out an energy saving regulation certificate, the rest will get really interesting...
It has already been proven here that he doesn’t know what he’s doing, since the number of windows has no impact on the energy saving regulation.
