Agree, but need to do the calculation to know whether to recommend or not. And as this is for my annual assessment I am just crossing the T's and dotting the I's in case my assessor is having a bad day and decides to be awkward.
The CRL risk assessment is not applicable to single dwellings, what’s the point in doing an risk assessment to find it requires one only to then have a cravat that says it can be omitted by the cost therin etc?
What I don’t understand philosophically, is why its ok to make a value based decision for a single dwelling and not a shop, for example ? I think they’ve overstepped the mark when they used “shall” for anything other than safety, but that’s just me
.
Just to update the thread.
Had my annual surveillance visit last week.
Assessor was pleased to see that I had supplied a CRL showing that an SPD was not required at the property. He said it was the first he had seen as most people that have not fitted them just say it’s not required in domestic setting but without any justification.
You need to document the CRL then if an SPD is required and client refuses you need that refusal documented and signed by the client (just needs to be kept with your records for future ref). Failing to fit an SPD or not having a CRL and any documented refusal, if needed, will result in a non conformity in an annual assessment.
[assessors remarks]
I realise that not everyone on here will agree with this but I thought the feedback may be of interest to someone about to have their assessment.
PJH2903 thanks for that, as a new member it very helpful to have that type of info from other's experiences and the remarks from the assessor as to the rational behind it.

What makes it a lack of space?
I’d say to the customer to dismantle a cupboard or whatever to creat the space you need for the extra equipment...
What was the assossors name? Was it warren by any chance? Did you get it sorted in the end?
