Water Calculations – Your Key to Part G Compliance
Every detail counts when constructing a new home or remodelling an old one, especially those mandated by law.
One of the crucial tasks in making sure your property conforms with Part G of the Building Regulations in England is performing water calculations.
Water calculations estimate how much water each resident of the property will probably consume on a daily basis. To ensure that water is used effectively without compromising comfort or functionality, we concentrate on fixtures such as faucets, showers, toilets, and appliances.
Your project may be delayed if these criteria are not met, but compliance may be simple and stress-free with the correct knowledge.
Water Calculations (Part G)
What Is Part G Compliance?
Water efficiency, hot water safety, and sanitation are covered in Part G of the Building Regulations.
It establishes certain goals for water use:
- A new home cannot use more than 125 litres of water per person per day in the majority of England.
- The daily maximum is 110 litres per person in some areas with stricter regulations, frequently brought on by water scarcity.
This regulation is applicable to:
- Newly constructed residences
- Conversions (such as converting a business structure into residential space)
- Large-scale renovations with new water fixtures
Our experts meet these standards in order to receive Building Control approval because it is not an option.

Why Water Calculations Are Important
Why Water Calculations Are Important
Since water is a finite resource, conservation is essential in rising demand. In addition to controlling consumption, the government used Water Calculations to encourage sustainable growth.
You gain from these computations in a number of ways:
- Compliance Assurance: Before construction gets too far along, you can demonstrate that your project complies with the law with us.
- Cost Savings: Future residents’ utility bills are lowered by water-efficient fixtures.
- Environmental Responsibility: Conserving water contributes to the preservation of natural resources.
- Property Value: Buyers and tenants can find a sustainable and appealing home.
Early calculations that will be done by our team guarantee that your project is prepared for inspection and help you prevent later, expensive redesigns.
How Water Calculations Are Carried Out
When done by our experts, the procedure is simple instead of complicated. This is how it operates:
Information Gathering for the Project
We begin by obtaining your building blueprints and the specifications for every water-related fixture, including toilets, showers, bathtubs, taps, and even dishwashers or washing machines if they are included in the design.
Calculating Volumes and Flow Rates
The units of measurement for showers and taps are litres per minute.
The flush volume of toilets is used to evaluate them.
The maximum capacity of a bath is used to evaluate it.
Using the Method for Calculating Water Efficiency
We forecast each occupant’s daily water consumption using a process that has been approved by the government.
Evaluation and Suggestions
If your property’s usage exceeds the permitted limit, we offer workable solutions, such as different fixtures, to bring it within the acceptable range.
Final Report
You receive a Part G-compliant Water Efficiency Report to present to Building Control.

When to Arrange Your Water Calculations
Time is highly crucial. The ideal time to set up water calculations is when your project is still in the planning stage. In this manner:
- Small design changes can be made without interfering with construction.
- You save money by not having to replace the fittings after they are installed.
- You are prepared to submit compliance paperwork together with other building clearances.
If your fits don’t satisfy the criteria, waiting until the last minute can result in needless delays
