Nationwide building energy assessment coordination
Energy audit and building energy performance certificate services across Romania
Do you need an energy performance certificate for a sale, rental, building completion or property-management procedure, or do you want to understand energy losses and prioritise renovation work? Prestari Servicii receives the request, clarifies the building type, purpose, location, area, available documents and timing, then tries to connect the client with a professionally certified building energy auditor competent for the required activity. Requests can be coordinated for apartments, houses, apartment buildings, offices, shops, hotels, warehouses, farms, public buildings and industrial properties. Services may include building energy performance certificates, energy audits, assessment of the building envelope and technical systems, thermography and complementary investigations. The provider confirms professional competence, site visit, documents, report scope, timing and price before acceptance.
Prestari Servicii does not issue certificates and does not sign energy-audit reports. Regulated documents are prepared and assumed by a professionally certified building energy auditor within the applicable grade, specialism and competence. Prestari Servicii coordinates the request and contact.
24/7 REQUEST HANDLING
Submit the request at any time. State the locality and county, property type, purpose, approximate area, construction year, work stage and preferred timing. Mention whether you have cadastral plans, floor plans, technical documentation, wall and roof information, systems data, bills or a previous certificate. Twenty-four-hour request handling does not mean instant document issuance. The auditor determines whether a visit is required, which information is missing, which measurements are justified, whether the request falls within their competence and when the document can be delivered.
Personal data and documents
Send only necessary information. Do not share bank data, passwords or unrelated identity documents. The provider confirms the channel and purpose for receiving files.
HOW IT WORKS
1You describe the request
State whether you need a certificate, audit, thermography, renovation assessment or clarification of an existing document.
2We establish the building and documents
We clarify address, building type, area, age, use, plans, technical systems, consumption and deadline.
3We identify the appropriate auditor
The request is routed to a certified building energy auditor and, where required, professionals for complementary measurements or investigations.
4The assessment takes place
The auditor reviews the documents, property, envelope, technical systems and relevant data and defines the calculations and investigations included.
5You receive the document and explanation
The provider delivers the contracted certificate or audit report and explains indicators, recommendations, limitations and next steps.
THE CERTIFICATE AND AUDIT ARE DIFFERENT DOCUMENTS
Building energy performance certificate
The certificate describes the energy performance of a building or building unit under the applicable methodology. It includes indicators and an energy classification and may contain recommendations for improvement. It is used in situations provided by the legal framework, including certain transactions, rentals, completion stages and other building procedures. The precise requirement is checked for the property and purpose.
Building energy audit
The audit is a broader analysis of an existing building. It assesses consumption and losses, identifies renovation solutions, quantifies energy effects and may evaluate costs and economic indicators for proposed scenarios.
Thermography
Thermal imaging can identify temperature differences, thermal bridges, air leakage indications or anomalies under suitable conditions. It does not automatically replace a certificate or audit.
Preliminary assessment
A discussion, photographs and bills can help preparation, but the professional document relies on the data and checks determined by the auditor.
WHEN AN ENERGY CERTIFICATE MAY BE REQUIRED
Property sale
For apartments, houses, commercial units or buildings, the parties and involved professionals should check the documentation applicable to the transaction.
Rental
The owner may have obligations concerning availability and presentation of energy information under current rules.
Building completion
New buildings and major interventions may have performance-documentation requirements at stages set by technical and legal rules.
Public buildings and display
Certain buildings occupied by public authorities or frequently visited by the public may have specific certification or display duties.
Funding and renovation
Some programmes, lenders or projects may require a certificate, audit or assessment under their own conditions.
Updating after work
After material changes to the envelope or systems, the auditor determines whether a new document or reassessment is required.
BUILDING TYPES
Apartments and studios
The unit, position, surfaces, neighbouring spaces, systems and available documentation are clarified.
Detached houses
Walls, roof, floor, windows, shape, systems and extensions are relevant.
Apartment buildings
The assessment may concern the whole building, one unit or a renovation project, depending on scope.
Offices and commercial spaces
Operating hours, ventilation, cooling, lighting, equipment and boundaries influence the analysis.
Hotels, guesthouses and restaurants
Hot water, kitchens, laundry, ventilation, cooling and schedules may be significant.
Warehouses and industrial buildings
Geometry, schedules, processes, doors, ventilation and technical systems require a tailored approach.
Farms and agricultural buildings
Building consumption should be separated from processes, machinery, refrigeration or pumping.
Public buildings
Schools, hospitals, administrative centres and other buildings may require specific scenarios and documentation.
USEFUL DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION
The auditor confirms the exact list. Useful items can include:
- property identification;
- cadastral or floor plans;
- areas and dimensions;
- construction year and renovations;
- wall, roof and floor build-ups;
- windows and doors;
- heating and domestic hot water;
- ventilation and cooling;
- lighting for non-residential buildings;
- bills or consumption data for an audit;
- previous certificates or reports;
- photographs.
Missing documentation does not automatically prevent assessment. The auditor determines what can be verified, measured or justified and which limitations must be recorded.
SITE VISIT AND PROPERTY ASSESSMENT
Geometry
Areas, volumes, orientation, neighbouring spaces and heated boundaries are checked.
Building envelope
Walls, windows, roof, floors, thermal bridges and air leakage affect performance.
Technical systems
Depending on scope, heating, hot water, ventilation, cooling, pumps, controls, lighting and renewables are assessed.
Building use
Schedules, temperatures and occupancy can explain differences between calculated and billed consumption.
Measurements
Dimensions, temperatures, flows, power and other data are measured only when needed with appropriate methods.
BUILDING ENERGY AUDIT
Existing condition
The auditor builds an energy model using geometry, envelope, systems, operating conditions and the applicable methodology.
Losses and consumption
The analysis identifies contributions from building elements and systems and areas with improvement potential.
Individual measures
Insulation, windows, airtightness, heating, controls, hot water, ventilation, lighting and renewables may be assessed.
Packages and scenarios
Measures can be grouped to show interactions and a logical implementation order.
Estimated savings
Savings are calculated under stated assumptions and do not guarantee future bills because weather, use, prices and workmanship vary.
Economic indicators
Where included, costs and indicators rely on declared assumptions rather than universal commercial promises.
THERMOGRAPHY AND COMPLEMENTARY INVESTIGATIONS
Suitable conditions
Building thermography is more useful when temperature differences and environmental conditions support interpretation.
Thermal bridges
Images may reveal temperature patterns at corners, slabs, columns, windows and junctions.
Air leakage
Air movement can affect surface temperatures. Confirmation may need observation or additional tests.
Moisture
Some patterns can suggest moisture, but thermal imaging alone does not identify the cause.
Technical systems
Pipes, underfloor heating, electrical panels and equipment should be assessed only by competent professionals under safe conditions.
Airtightness tests
Blower-door and related tests can quantify air leakage when justified and performed appropriately.
BUILDING ENVELOPE AND RENOVATION ORDER
Before replacing heating equipment, the audit may show whether reducing losses changes required capacity.
Walls and façades
Construction, insulation continuity, thermal bridges, moisture and finishes are assessed.
Roof and attic
Heat loss, access, ventilation, leakage and structure require separate consideration.
Floor and basement
Ground contact, unheated spaces and moisture influence comfort and solutions.
Windows and doors
Glazing, frame, installation, sealing, shading and ventilation matter.
Airtightness and ventilation
Reducing uncontrolled leakage must be coordinated with healthy, controlled air supply.
TECHNICAL SYSTEMS AND ENERGY USE
Heating
Source, efficiencies, temperatures, distribution, balancing, controls and losses may be analysed.
Domestic hot water
Generation, storage, recirculation and use can be significant.
Ventilation and cooling
Airflow, heat recovery, schedules, temperatures and controls affect consumption and comfort.
Lighting
Non-residential analysis may include installed power, schedules, controls and daylight.
Renewable energy
Photovoltaics, solar thermal, heat pumps and other systems are assessed in relation to the building's demand.
Technical measurements
Electrical, thermal or hydraulic measurements use competent professionals and are not automatically part of every certificate.
RECOMMENDATIONS AND MODERNISATION SCENARIOS
Good recommendations are prioritised and explain dependencies.
Quick measures
Controls, scheduling, balancing, local sealing and selected replacements may have lower cost.
Envelope
Insulation, windows, roof and airtightness must account for moisture, fire and durability.
Systems
Heating, distribution, controls and ventilation should be related to demand after envelope improvements.
Renewable energy
Renewables are sized for actual demand and objectives rather than added mechanically.
Staging
The auditor may recommend an order that avoids oversizing or repeating work.
Report
The report should be read together with assumptions, limitations, indicative costs and implementation conditions.
CERTIFIED AUDITORS AND COMPETENCE
Certificates and audits are prepared by professionally certified building energy auditors within the competence associated with their grade and specialism. Before contracting, check:
- professional identity;
- certification and available public register;
- competence for the building and document;
- person signing and assuming responsibility;
- visits, calculations and measurements included;
- delivery time and format;
- price and payment conditions.
Prestari Servicii does not claim that a listed person permanently retains a particular status. Verification is made at the time of the request.
VALIDITY, ENERGY CLASS AND LIMITATIONS
Document validity
Validity and circumstances requiring renewal are checked against the current legal framework and any changes to the building.
No promised energy class
An energy class cannot responsibly be promised before data and calculation.
Not a bill guarantee
Actual use depends on weather, indoor temperatures, occupancy, behaviour, tariffs and system condition.
Audit is not a complete technical design
Works may require surveys, designs, permits and separate professional checks.
Thermography is not a single verdict
A thermal image must be interpreted with conditions, materials, moisture and other evidence.
BUSINESSES AND LARGE BUILDINGS
Consumption profile
Monthly or interval data can reveal peaks, base loads and unnecessary operating periods.
Building versus process
In industry, building energy must be separated from machinery and process use.
Multiple buildings
Portfolios require inventory, common criteria, prioritisation and individual assessment.
Business continuity
Recommendations must account for operating hours, production, customers, hygiene, safety and construction stages.
Monitoring
Submetering and energy management can support implementation and verification.
