How this Contents Calculator works?

Sum Insured’s CIRCA Net home contents replacement cost calculator gives you the ability to calculate a reliable insurance reinstatement cost quickly and easily for your valuable assets.

CIRCA stands for Contents Insurance Residential Cost Address database and is an expert system that combines Sum Insured's unique home contents replacement cost database with individual property household data, using a sophisticated estimating technique known as “dynamic elemental modelling” (DEM). 

You start the process by entering your home address details, then your are presented with a comprehensive list of the key features of your household together with a suggested replacement cost for your home contents.

You are then able to accept the value or amend your household details and CIRCA Net will automatically re-calculate the replacement cost of your home contents.

If you want to examine your home contents estimate in more detail, CIRCA Net allows you to go behind the scenes and examine the detailed inventory list that lies behind every unique estimate. You can fine tune the estimate by making changes at the individual item level, these changes are then incorporated in the estimate and a new sum insured value generated. 

The data within CIRCA Net is kept fully up to date with regular updates made throughout the year, particularly to categories containing important and fast paced items, most notably in the technology area.
