Translation of "Wärmeschutzverordnung" in English

The thermal insulation regulation of 1995 "only" calculated the heating requirements.

But this are rooles in the Salzburg heat energy protection law from 1992.

Buildings built according to the thermal insulation decree (WSVO) 95 achieve values of 100 kWh/m²/ a.

This is also clearly expressed by the more stringent heat insulation regulation (WSVO III) in force since 1995.

Critics of the system have, in. the past, and from the viewpoint of other interests, frequently asserted that the system contravenes German heat conservation regulations.

Since the first German Thermal Insulation Ordinance (WSVO) was introduced in 1977 in response to the oil crisis, the insulation requirements for building envelopes have increased continually.

Together with the optional DAX casing the intelligent TROX TLT fan system meets the requirements of the German Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV) and hence additionally saves both costs and resources.

By entering data into the passive house preliminary study, a large part of the work is already done which is necessary for the preparation of heat consumption identification according to the thermal insulation decree 1995.

This regulation replaces the "Verordnung über einen energiesparenden Wärmeschutz bei Gebäuden vom 16. August 1994" ("Regulation about energy saving thermal insulation for buildings dated 16 August 1994" (thermal insulation regulation, for short)).

Another circumstance is that for reasons of the protection of the environment and the saving of energy since the heat-protection-regulation of 1995, since 1.2.2002 replaced through the Energieeinsparverordnung, is respected increasingly, that the building-cover is dammed better and is sealed in order to avoid heat-losses as far as possible.

This is important to meet the Thermal Insulation Regulations, to avoid draughts and to break the thermal bridge; thus it is ideal for economising heating costs!

The overall partitioning wall fulfils the requirements of the thermal insulation regulation such that, even at low outside temperatures, there are no disadvantages as to energy and thus high cost.

Within the framework of the increasing requirements of the Thermal Insulation Ordinance, the heat transfer of a commercially available high-speed gate with flexible curtain (curtain thickness between 0.6 mm and 1.5 mm) can be multiply improved by using an insulating curtain.

In order to satisfy the requirements of the Fraunhofer Institute and/or the heat insulation regulation (Germany) for so-called “zero-energy houses”, it would also be desirable for it to be possible to use low-temperature energy (below the room temperature) for heating purposes, in order thus for it also to be possible to utilize heat accumulators or heat stores with a lower temperature than the room temperature of the building which is to be heated.

After the German Thermal Insulation Ordinance came the Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV), which since its introduction has been amended and tightened several times.

This value already is considerably lower than the value required according to the applicable energy saving regulations of 1.56 W/(m 2 ×K), i.e. is about half of the admissible value.

With the introduction of this regulation, the energy requirements of buildings are to be reduced by 25% with respect to the thermal insulation regulation (WSVO or WSChV).

Here the heat supply outweighs the other consumption loads because many buildings were already built before the first German Thermal Insulation Ordinance came into effect in 1977 and have still not yet been fully refurbished to improve their energy efficiency.

More than 80Â percent of residential buildings in Germany were built prior to the introduction of the third thermal insulation ordinance of 1995.

The reason is that most of the roughly 18 million residential buildings in Germany were built before the first thermal insulation regulation came into force in 1978 and are therefore insufficiently energy-efficient.

The German Energy Saving Ordinance (EnEV) 2002 requires buildings to reduce energy consumption by 30% in comparison to the regulation of 1995 and to strengthen the integrated planning approach between actors.

Nearly three quarters of buildings in Germany were built before 1979, which means they were built before the first German Heat Insulation Ordinance was enacted and are therefore less energy efficient.

Many old single-family and two-family houses were constructed before the first German Thermal Insulation Ordinance of 1977 and thus paid no special attention to thermal insulation or energy consumption.
