Compliant electric heating for housing

Dimplex
Dimplex has prepared a comprehensive series of technical guides covering key issues affecting electric heating solutions for low-carbon housing. The Route One series is designed for building-services specifiers to provide concise information where electric heating’s established benefits of low capital and maintenance costs are recognised but there is a need to understand how the heating system performs with the building as a whole. Five sections examine target levels of energy efficiency — from current Building Regulations, Code Levels 3 and 4, the next Building Regulations in 2010 and beyond to zero-carbon housing. There is a wide range of case studies and practical examples of how compliance can and has been achieved.
