Seminar tackles overheating issues
Rising temperatures have highlighted issues with buildings overheating, and the contribution of building services to unwanted heat gains is coming under scrutiny. A new CIBSE-Approved CPD from Kingspan tackles the issue.

Recent research from AECOM has suggested that the use of an enhanced specification of pipe insulation and insulated pipe supports on hot water and heating pipework can reduce overheating in some buildings.
Kingspan's 45 minute long seminar, called Limiting the effects of Overheating in Building Services Applications, explains how the research was conducted and examines the issues of overheating, including in void and corridor spaces, relating to building services insulation. It also looks at the benefits of going a step further than the base Building Regulation requirements, along with optimising the design and implementation of building services insulation systems.
