Their goal is to ensure the health and safety of everyone in and around these buildings. They&#8217;re also designed to make sure that buildings are relatively energy efficient, and meet the needs of people with disabilities.<\/p>\n<h3>Do Building Regulations apply to windows?<\/h3>\n<p>Building Regulations do apply to windows. Your windows need to meet certain standards in 4 different areas:<\/p>\n<h5>1. Heat Loss<\/h5>\n<p>New window glazing and frames need to be good heat insulators. This will reduce the amount of heat that escapes from your home and lower your energy bills. If you want to install new windows, they need to be at or below a certain level of energy efficiency, which is measured as a U-level.<\/p>\n<h5>2. Safety Glazing<\/h5>\n<p>Windows in certain areas of your home have to be fitted with safety glazing. These include any windows that are:<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/double-glazing.anytrades.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DG-200x304.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"304\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-373 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 200\/304;\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Below 80cm from floor level<\/li>\n<li>30cm or less from a door and up to 150cm from floor level<\/li>\n<li>Within any glazed door up to 150cm from floor level<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So any new windows you install need to be safety glazed in these areas.<\/p>\n<h5>3. Ventilation<\/h5>\n<p>All rooms in a property should have sufficient ventilation, and windows are part of ensuring this. In some rooms smaller windows and trickle ventilators are enough. But in rooms where large amounts of steam are produced, like kitchens and bathrooms, a certain amount and size of windows and extractor fans are required.<\/p>\n<h5>4. Fire Safety<\/h5>\n<p>There are 2 ways in which windows have to promote fire safety. Some windows close to other properties need to have fire resistance and be fixed shut in order to avoid the potential spread of fire between buildings. Which windows these are depends on how close your property is to another building.<\/p>\n<p>New windows also need to be considered as fire exits. If you&#8217;re replacing a window that is big enough to be a means of escape, then the new window also has be big enough for this, even if it might actually be a bit smaller than the original window. Escape windows should have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A width and height of at least 45cm<\/li>\n<li>A clear openable area of at least 33cm square<\/li>\n<li>A cill no higher than 110cm from the floor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You don&#8217;t normally need more than one escape window per room.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I comply with Building Regulations?<\/h3>\n<p>You have 2 options when it comes to complying with Building Regulations and applying for approval if necessary. You can:<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/\/double-glazing.anytrades.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/DG-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-371 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 200px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 200\/300;\" \/><\/p>\n<h5>1. Hire a &#8216;competent person&#8217;<\/h5>\n<p>If you hire a contractor who&#8217;s on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.competentperson.co.uk\/\">Competent Persons Register<\/a>, they&#8217;ll make sure than any window work they do complies with Building Regulations. They have the power to self-certify their work, and will contact your local authority if approval is needed. When the work is complete, they will give you a certificate to say all the work complies with Building Regulations.<\/p>\n<h5>2. Use a building control body<\/h5>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t hire a &#8216;competent person&#8217;, you can use a building control body. Building control bodies (BCBs) can be either run by your local authority or privately. If you use a BCB they will check if your planned window work complies with Building Regulations, and apply for approval for you if necessary. When your window work is finished, they&#8217;ll provide you with a certificate which proves it&#8217;s all in line with Building Regulations.<\/p>\n<p>As with anything you don\u2019t want to fall foul of the law. With windows, if you fail to adhere to Building Regulations then you risk needing to remove the full installation, which nobody wants. So to be on the safe side, you should make sure you use one of the two options above.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about regulations that may apply to your window work, take a look at our information on planning permission.
