✔️ window glazing values

✔️ occupancy patterns (including internal heat loads, typical occupancy times and occupancy behaviour)

✔️ window coverings (which are standardised for all ratings, noting they are likely to change of the life of the building)

✔️ different types of zones in the house and whether they are conditioned/unconditioned

✔️ thermostat settings (temperatures at which artificial heating/cooling is no longer required to achieve thermal comfort, noting this varies depending on climate zone)

✔️ local climate and weather (including temperature, humidity, wind and sun)

✔️ shadowing/overshadowing by adjacent buildings and features

✔️ size of the building being assessed (noting smaller buildings generally have a larger wall surface area than bigger buildings)
