Terms of Use
1. The BER Assessment will be carried out by Flanagan Engineers in accordance with the Code of Conduct for BER Assessors November 2008. In particular, it will be carried out in an independent manner by a registered BER Consultant based on drawings, site survey and other data supplied by you and any other investigations required. On the basis of this information, a BER assessment of the building(s)will be carried out and submitted to Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI) for publication.
2. All information and documentation that you supply in connection with this application (whether requested or otherwise) will become the property of SEI.
The confidentiality of this information will be protected and will not be disclosed by the BER Assessor without your agreement to do so unless otherwise required to do so by law. If there is a requirement by law to release any such information you will be notified as promptly as possible.
3. We and SEI shall have no responsibility for any loss or damage that may arise as a result of the Building Energy Rating assessment or result. The methodology used for the BER assessment incorporates standard occupancy assumptions and a range of technical judgements on the energy efficiency of various building components and attributes.
A BER may change over time due to many factors including deterioration or modification to the fabric of the building, or its elements. As a result, an energy rating is only a guide to the overall energy efficiency of a building. In practice, energy efficiency is highly dependent on how occupants use the building.
4. We have an ongoing responsibility to ensure the accuracy of BER certificates issued based upon assessment. For that purpose, it may be necessary us and/or Sustainable Energy Ireland (SEI) or its agents to visit the building to check that it complies with the drawings upon which the BER Certificate has been based. You and/or the owner(s) or subsequent owners of the building(s) may be requested to allow us or the employees of SEI or its agents to visit the building(s) for this purpose. If you decide not to facilitate such a request, SEI may decide to revoke the relevant BER Certificate.
