Delivering Part L & Part G: Water Efficiency Meets Energy Performance

Join Mira Showers and Recoup at Mira’s head office to find out how integrating wastewater heat recovery systems (WWHRS) with UK specification compliant showers can support Future Homes Standard Part L and Part G requirements.


Explore how this combined approach supports compliance; energy and water demand reduction; while minimising design changes and cost impact at plot level. The visit includes a guided factory tour and live demonstrations, showing how compliance, quality, and performance are embedded into the development and manufacture of Mira showers & Recoups WWHRS solutions.


Learn how WWHRS is included within the notional dwelling following the latest Future Homes Standard announcement, how this is reflected in SAP 10.3, and what you need to know ahead of the upcoming HEM release.
