How to recognise a genuinely sustainable home
An A energy label says something, but not everything. Ask for the insulation values of roof, walls and floor, the glazing type, the heat pump and heat-recovery ventilation, the number of solar panels and the actual annual consumption. Look as well at the materials — responsibly sourced timber, bio-based insulation, reused elements — and at how far the design works with the sun. We obtain the handover documents and meter readings so you can verify the claims.
