Can I get a HLI value, from a BER cert that was done in 2019?

    The office is local but the cert didn't include a HLI value.

    Instead of getting an assessment, could they simply inspect the BER analysis they did in 2019 and extract the relevant HLI from that?

    The BER advice report says, "some of this could use improvement", in relation to walls, windows, doors, ceiling and flooring.

    At no point anywhere is it specified which parts require an upgrade.

    It didn't include the HLI as above, and was done in 2019.

    When I contacted the office who did it, they said for a HLI they'd do an inspection which would cost almost 500 beans.

    Did I get shafted with their original BER report, or are BER reports in general intentionally this vague?

    SEAI advice that I was given was that if you obtain a copy of the Dwelling Report from them, that will show the Heat loss Indicator ( HLI ) that you require.

    You can obtain this by emailing the BER Helpdesk at info@ber.seai.ie


    They will require you to provide a copy of a recent utility bill, with your MPRN.


    Hope that is of use
