Energy certification of properties
The owner of the building or its property units shall:
- before selling, renting, renting/leasing a building or its property units, obtain an energy certificate
- submit an energy certificate or a copy thereof to the buyer, lessee,
- present the energy certificate to a potential buyer, lessee
- indicate the energy class of the building or its property unit in an advertisement for sale published in the media, renting or leasing a building or its property units
The energy class is presented for reference climate data and is an indicator of:
- specific annual heating energy requirements for reference climate data and the Algorithm prescribed regime of use of space and regime of operation of technical systems,
- specific annual primary energy for reference climate data and the Algorithm prescribed regime of use of space and regime of operation of technical systems, which in residential buildings includes energy for heating, domestic hot water preparation and ventilation/air conditioning (ventilation/air conditioning is taken into account if it exists and only through heating), and in non-residential buildings includes energy for lighting and energy of those thermotechnical systems indicated in the Methodology in Table 5.18 (Defined Technical Systems for Calculating to Primary Energy for Reference Climate Data for Certain Types of Buildings) for a particular type of non-residential building (office buildings, educational buildings, hospitals, hotels and restaurants, sports halls, store buildings, other non-residential buildings);
Residential and non-residential buildings are classified into eight energy classes according to the energy scale from A+ to G, with A+ indicating the most energy efficient, and G the least energy efficient.
Our certifiers can perform a certification of a property or its property unit and create an energy certificate within a reasonable time.
