The Rating Scale

A Building Energy Rating (BER) Certificate helps you to understand the energy efficiency of a home. It is a good indicator of how much you will spend and how much carbon you will produce to heat the home to a comfortable level.

The rating scale looks like the energy rating labels for household appliances. It rates the home on a scale from A-G.

A-rated homes are the most energy-efficient and comfortable. They tend to have the lowest energy bills.

G-rated homes are the least energy-efficient. They typically require a lot of energy to heat the home and have the highest energy bills
