    Frequently Asked Questions (UK Regulations)

    How accurate is this Radiator BTU & Watt Sizing Room Heat Loss Calculator (UK Climate Spec)?

    Calculations comply directly with UK Building Regulations, BS standards (such as BS 7671 for electrical and BS 5268 for timber), incorporating customary 5-15% wastage allowances.

    Can I use this for planning permission or building control submissions?

    Yes, our algorithms follow approved statutory formulas and provides accurate guidance; however, always have critical structural work countersigned by a qualified structural engineer or Building Control officer.

    Does this support both metric and imperial units?

    Yes, while UK Building Regulations specify metric (metres, mm, kg), you can easily cross-reference standard timber sections (e.g., 4x2 inches as 100x47mm).
