The situation here is of a conservatory associated with an existing

there is about *thermal* separation, which is not the same thing.

Yes but according to the local BCO it IS subject to building control UNLESS
the installation is done by a FENESTA approved installer. Two installations
locally since 1st April have gone through this and not without problems
either. Are you saying that there was no legal basis for this?


That's what the Statutory Instrument says and so does FENSA.

Were the ones that you mention not exempt because they didn't meet one
or other of the requirements perhaps? Also, the applicable date
seems to be April 2002.
