NZEB are you ready?

All new homes will be nearly zero energy buildings (NZEB) and have a typical Building Energy Rating (BER) of A2 compared with a current rating for new builds of A3
New homes will be 70% more energy efficient and emit 70% less carbon dioxide than 2005 performance levels
Typical A-rated 3-bedroom semi-detached house likely to be approximately €800 a year cheaper to heat than a similar house built before 2005

Existing dwellings undergoing major renovations will be required to achieve a BER of B2 or equivalent.
Revised building regulations that apply to all new dwellings commencing construction from 1st November 2019 subject to transitional arrangements. The new regulations aim to make all new residential dwellings 70% more energy efficient than the performance requirements in 2005.

The NZEB standard is achieved, in part, through improved air tightness in a building. New builds will require more effective ventilation systems to achieve the improved air tightness.

If you require any new domestic or non domestic buildings, extensions or renovations and are unsure simply contact us and we will help you along the way to achieving NZEB
