Protected Structures

We would like to advise you that protected structures are exempt from requiring BER Certificates when being offered for sale or rent.

Please continue with the form if you would like to obtain a BER certificate to understand how to make energy savings for your home.

A heat pump operates by extracting heat from one source, increasing the temperature by means of a compressor and heat exchanger and moving the heat to another location. The main types of heat pumps are:

• Air source heat pumps – An air source heat pump takes heat from the air and boosts it to a higher temperature using a compressor. It then transfers the heat to the heating system in your home. These are the most popular type of heat pump used in Ireland and Europe.
• Ground source heat pumps – These extract heat from the ground by means of either horizontally or vertically buried pipework.
• Water source heat pumps – These take heat from a water source such as a well.

Heat pumps work best in a well insulated building with good levels of air tightness. The installation will generally incorporate a system of heating controls that can maintain a set point temperature within the home.
