Part L approval for Hevacomp software

12 July, 2006

Projects designed using Hevacomp software can now be checked for Part L compliance directly.

Version 22 of Hevacomp’s M&E design software has passed the DCLG accreditation procedure for use with Part of the Building Regulations (2006). This software can thus be used to interface with the Simplified Building Energy Model (SBEM) to check compliance with Part L. Projects that have been set up with Hevacomp’s industry-standard design database package can be checked for compliance with Part L without having to re-enter project data.
