✅ Collecting Evidence on Site for RdSAP 10

RdSAP 10 will require assessors to collect additional data whilst on site, this includes measuring all windows and collecting more data on Room in the Roof, to name a few. To support assessors with this, Elmhurst have created a short walkthrough video outlining the additional evidence you’ll need to collect. You can watch this video here >

✅ RdSAP 10 Software Walkthrough Videos

On Sunday 15^th June, the RdSAP 10 software will undergo a comprehensive update to reflect the updated methodology for both RdSAP Online and RdSAP Go. While the software will remain familiar, new inputs and features include:

• Room in the Roof section
• Copy Window option making is quicker to enter windows with similar features
• More options for insulation thickness and ventilation
• More options for new technologies like PV batteries, diverters and small-scale hydro

✅What to expect on Sunday 15^th June

On Sunday 15th June, Elmhurst members should be aware of scheduled maintenance and required updates to ensure their software is operating on the latest version. Once the RdSAP 10 update is deployed, the previous version (9.94) will no longer be available, and all assessments must be lodged using RdSAP 10.

If you’re an RdSAP Go user you should make sure you have submitted/lodged or uploaded all assessments to RdSAP Online prior to the 15th June so you can still access them after the update has been deployed.
