Psi-value (Thermal Bridging) Calculations

Psi-value (Thermal Bridging) Calculations

At PB Sustainability Ltd, we provide fully compliant Psi-value calculations to help improve your SAP rating, reduce heat loss, and support compliance with the latest UK Building Regulations.

Psi-Value (or Ψ-Value) represents the difference in thermal performance between a junction and the surrounding building element. It can be either positive or negative, depending on the detailing. Junctions can account for over 20% of total heat loss through a building’s fabric, making accurate calculations essential for thermal efficiency and compliance.

With the introduction of SAP10 and the removal of Accredited Construction Details (ACDs), relying on default values can lead to significant thermal bridging penalties — which negatively impact your Design Fabric Energy Efficiency (DFEE) score and may increase construction costs.

Our tailored Psi-value assessments model the actual heat loss at key junctions in your design. This helps reduce excessive thermal bridging, improve overall energy performance, and ensure your project meets current expectations for sustainability and compliance.
