Cosy home with C2 BER rating

A SOLID, C2 energy BER rating comes with number 15, Ardfield Mews – and that only goes to show how hard it is to get into the A and B ratings.

Anyone who’s lived in these Fleming Construction-built homes (near both an Aldi and a Super Valu, in Grange, Douglas, in Cork city) swears by the comfort levels, thanks to the company’s patented, steel-frame system of building, with integrated, highly effective insulation panels done under the Fusion name.

This home, number 15, was built in the early 2000s and would have had, probably, the highest insulation specification of any new homes being built at the time. To get a higher BER rating, it would probably now need things like solar panels.
