Second hand homes in estates required from Jan 2009 should cost less than €300 as standard builds. Second hand one off homes should not cost anymore than new builds.
Hi there,
Came across these energy auditors at the home and Garden Show in the RDS in March. Website is www.iglooenergy.ie.
I have also come accross these guys, while I have never used them, they seem quite professional. I am interested in their business offering which involves a full consultancy service on improving energy efficiency rather than just doing the ratings, afaik that includes equipment specification, and installations, integration with other services etc.
Personally I think that is a badly needed service in the construction industry, as most of the energy products (solar, underfloor, heat pumps, pellets etc) are promoted mainly by manufacturers/distributors rather than installers. As a result the product may not be correctly specified for particular house or may be not propoerly integrated with other services. However I am not sure that for domestic projects people will be prepared to pay for this service.
There is a growing number of other young (and hungry) energy consulting companies. If you can get a list of those expected to become approved BER assessors from SEI this may be a good place to start.
