I am on a project of self-construction and I would like to know if I will be entitled to the BBC label with the following materials: monomur brick 30 cm + insulation 4 + 1 glass wool 2 layers crossed in the attic heating with a wood stove with integrated ventilation I am from Charentes-Maritimes and the house will be exposed to the south with two large windows.

A dwelling can be classified as BBC when it consumes less 50 kWh / m2 per year of primary energy for a new house. In accordance with the recommendations of the Grenelle Environnement, the BBC house must consume very little energy and thus allow much less CO2 to be released into the atmosphere,no construction constraints does not concern the materials and techniques used.

Favor the watertightness of the house which must be almost absolute. Remember to properly isolate the ground support slab and install high-performance joinery. use only labeled products (CSTB, Acotherm, Cekal, etc.). Join an association of auto-builders like the West Beavers.

For labeling, contact PROMOTELEC. You can also consult the energy info point of the local ADEME.
