Rules that apply in Pentwyn
The Welsh Approved Document L Volume 2 (2022) uses 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt for general lighting, with alternatives such as LENI. A new Welsh edition takes effect from 4 March 2027 with a higher figure of more than 105.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in Wales generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
Pentwyn FAQs
How quickly can you survey in Pentwyn?
Most surveys in Pentwyn can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.
Do you cover all of Pentwyn?
Yes. We work across Pentwyn and the CF23, CF3 and CF24 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Trowbridge, Rhiwbina and Cardiff.
Can you work out of hours in Pentwyn?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Pentwyn offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Is it worth replacing fluorescent tubes with LED?
Usually, yes. Common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by GB ecodesign rules from September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended in February 2024, so replacements are getting harder to source. LED fittings typically use 30–60% less energy for the same light.
