H1 Calculator

To help you assess the thermal performance of your build and ensure it is compliant with the updated H1 energy efficiency standards, we have created a free, easy to use, online H1 calculator. This calculator will also help you optimise your design, find the most cost-effective route towards compliance, and calculate by how much your design would pass or fail compliance.

Find you H1 compliant design in 3 quick and easy steps:

  1. Enter your climate zone, date of building consent application and size of your building.
  2. Enter your proposed construction R-values for each building element.
  3. The calculator will compare the heat loss from your proposal with the equivalent reference building and confirm whether your design would pass or fail H1 compliance.
