What are H1 changes?
These requirements are set out in clause H1 Energy Efficiency of the New Zealand Building Code, which is commonly referred to as H1 changes. Simply put, these changes specify minimum insulation requirements for new housing.
When it comes to floor foundations like concrete slabs, most will require edge insulation at a minimum and those with underfloor heating will require both edge and base insulation. The required level of thermal insulation, measured in R values, depends on the location of the construction site within New Zealand. This is because the country is separated into six separate zones, with different minimum R values for each zone. The R value required for a foundation also varies depending on whether or not underfloor heating is included.
Despite the complexity of these requirements, you don't need to stress about them. At Allied Concrete, we are on top of the H1 changes and will ensure that your flooring system meets or exceeds the minimum performance standards. So, if you are planning to build a new home or building, trust Allied Concrete's SuperSlab+ to provide the right edge-insulated concrete foundation solution that will make your building project warmer, drier, healthier and energy efficient.
