What is a BER Assessment?

A Building Energy Rating (BER) is an indication of the energy performance of a home β€” similar to the energy label on a household appliance. It rates your home on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).

A BER cert is legally required when selling or renting a property in Ireland. It gives buyers and tenants an independent, standardised measure of a home's energy efficiency.

At Northwest BER Solutions, we carry out professional, SEAI registered BER assessments quickly and accurately β€” giving you everything you need to proceed with your sale or rental.

Heat Loss Indicator (HLI) β€” Am I Eligible?

The Heat Loss Indicator (HLI) is a key measure used by SEAI to determine eligibility for certain grants β€” particularly the Heat Pump grant. It measures how quickly a home loses heat, and your home must meet a specific HLI threshold before a heat pump can be installed efficiently.

≀2.3
Eligible for Heat Pump Grant
2.3–3.0
Marginal β€” improvements may be needed first
3.0–5.0
Insulation upgrades strongly recommended first
>5.0
Significant upgrades needed before heat pump
πŸ’‘ How we can help: Our technical assessment calculates your home's HLI and identifies exactly what upgrades are needed to reach grant eligibility. We'll guide you through the process step by step β€” from assessment to grant application. Contact us today to find out where your home stands.

I hired Mark to update my BER Cert. Carried out the survey on a Monday and posted my Certificate on the following Thursday. Extremely efficient and very generous with advice on how to improve energy conservation. Also worked out the cheapest quote in the Sligo area. I have no hesitation in recommending this company.
