Type

The Project Type determines the type of NatHERS Certificate issued for the Project and is a critical property of the Project

The available Project Types include:

  • Class 1a New House/Townhouse(s):
    Default Project Type within Hero for a completely new House(s).
    Note can be used for Multi-Dwelling Class 1a Projects so that many townhouses or homes on a single development can be modelled within the one Project & Hero file.

  • Class 1a Alteration/Extension House/Townhouse - Existing/Pre-Renovated Rating:
    Represents a Existing or “Prior to Renovation” NatHERS Assessment Project.
    For Renovation Projects, this Existing NatHERS Assessment & Hero File may be used to determine the Proposed Project’s required Star-Rating as per Building Regulation guidance

Info

Note in the future Hero may combine the Existing Rating & Proposed Rating into a single Hero file but for now these are modelled as separate Hero Projects (i.e. two Hero files)

  • Class 1a Alteration/Extension House/Townhouse - Proposed/Renovated Rating
    Represents the Proposed NatHERS Assessment for a Renovation Project. May be used in combination with an Existing House NatHERS Assessment if required for partial compliance.

  • Class 2 Apartment(s)
    Class 2 Projects typically have different star-rating requirements than Class 1a Project.
    A Class 2 Project is also issued a NatHERS Summary Certificate within the Hero Web-Portal that documents the Average Star-Rating for the Project as well as the individual Dwelling Star-Ratings.

  • Class 4 Dwelling(s) Above Another within another Class Building

Certificate Notes

An area available for the User to Document any additional information to be added to the NatHERS Certificate as per NatHERS & AAO Requirements.

Typical uses of this section is to document any assumptions made for the project, any substitutions or deviations away from standard NatHERS Technical Note guidance.

Tip

For Multi-Dwelling Projects: Certificate Notes at a Dwelling Level are combined with the Project level Certificate Notes. This enables the Project Data-Grid’s Certificate Notes to be used as Global notes for all apartments & the individual Dwelling Certificate Notes to be used for individual note requirements.
