Designed for use in new and existing owner-occupied homes,
the guide supports a wide range of systems, including lowpressure and low-temperature space heating, open-vented
and unvented/pressurised systems, and systems connected to
automatically controlled heat sources.
“
The Domestic Heating Design Guide 2026 (11th edition)
delivers clear, up-to-date guidance for domestic space
heating and hot water system design in new and existing
owner-occupied UK homes. Developed by the CIBSE
Domestic Building Services Panel, this edition maintains a
clear, user-friendly structure while supporting designers,
installers, and learners with modern best practice and
regulatory alignment.”
– Dr Jaydeep Bhadra,
Domestic Sector Technical Manager, CIBSE
By providing evidence-based design methods, improved
system documentation, and practical guidance on
commissioning, balancing, and control strategies, the guide
helps close the performance gap and ensures systems operate
efficiently over their lifetime. It also serves as a core reference
for training providers and a reliable technical baseline for
accredited installers and designers.
With a history dating back to 1850, we are a
multi-disciplinary practice with a wealth of
experience in conservation and heritage.
