A2

What a A2 BER rating means

A A2 home uses 25 to 50 kWh/m²/yr. Very high efficiency, typical of new builds. 172,709 certified homes in Ireland (12.4%) are rated A2.

Is a A2 good or bad?

A A2 home is among the more efficient in the country, with relatively low heating demand and running costs.

How to improve beyond A2

Homes at this level are already efficient; small gains come from controls, draught-proofing or solar PV.
