ok thanks lets submit and il let you know how it goes fingers x ?

Hi JS thanks for the speedy reply.....i saw your report it was great. I spent last three days lol writing up mine but what i have so far but am just got a bit thrown by the whole house ventilation bit. I used system one in the flats and followed the checklist in the document guide and work out all the background ventilator bits.......its the last bit the said they want then apparently i can get sign off. Fingers cross. I just dont want more agro they put me through the ringers for the last year! You know that last hurdle and your like omg please just let me get over this last one. This is what i have done so far and was just thinking to put in my electricians details for the installer bit and myslef for the test engineer ? Part F Airflow v2.docx

Hi I am currently writing up my own report and wondering if I have been asked for air flow rate/ extract rate certificate in accordance with part f by BC then will i need to work out and measure whole house ventilation rates or simply just test the fans in bathroom and cooker hood? I have been using the guidance document to write up my readings that i took with a testo 417 that i borrowed, but i am not sure if i should fill in and submit parts 1,2 and 3 or just keep it simple and give them part 3 - the flow rate measurements for bathroom and kitchens. Its for a conversion i am doing and they asking for it as the said it classed as new dwellings. I have look through some of the great stuff already on here but any other help would be amazing. I am a bit confused about the reference to whole house ventilation......do i need to include that or is that for when they ask you to do air tightness testing for part L? I think i managed to calculate the background ventilators and worked of the table to ensure they match the minimum required, so that was OK, i did it of the trickle vents in the windows and brick air vents in the walls. I am struggling to find examples of domestic air flow rate certificates. I found a few companies who can come and do it for me but i figured seeing as i could borrow the machine and do my self i would rather just right up my own report and see if BC except that? Also another bit that i was unsure about was a few comments that a certificate is required for each dwelling? Is that just a money making ploy and can i simply fill al the readings for both flats in the house on one report?
