What is an Advisory Report?
An Advisory Report is an official document prepared as part of your BER assessment. It highlights areas where your property’s energy efficiency can be enhanced and provides specific retrofit suggestions, such as:
Upgrading insulation in walls, roofs, or floors
Installing energy-efficient heating systems
Replacing old windows with double or triple glazing
Adding solar panels or renewable energy sources
Improving ventilation to reduce heat loss
These recommendations are tailored to your building’s unique construction and energy use patterns.
