SAP Calc Specifying Details for Windows and Doors

[Jammy5]

I'm just double checking my drawings and SAP calc prior to ordering my doors/windows.

 

As expected the SAP calc provides information on the U and G values for the windows, doors and patio doors. However it also states the following:-

 

• Windows - Part O, M & Q Compliant) & Secure by Design Compliant
• Solid Doors - (Part Q & Secure by Design Compliant)
• Fully Glazed Patio Doors (Part Q & Secure by Design Compliant)

 

My supplier has questioned some of the specification, that's only being driven by the SAP Assessor, for example 'Secure by Design'. Does this have any affect on the SAP calculation at all?

 

I assume the Part O, M & Q are to keep me compliant with build regulations but happy to stand corrected.

 

Kind regards,

SAP (part L) is to do with energy efficiency.  Part Q / Secure by Design is security.  Part O is overheating.

Yeah, and it's why I couldn't understand why the SAP person is stating secure by design in his SAP calc amongst other things that don't impact SAP.
