From online advertisements to fraud cases, the BAR-TH-164 ended up making a name for itself in the construction world. It is living its last moments and should expire at the end of the year (with the possibility of submitting EEC files until July 31, 2024). A draft decree provides for the creation of two files, one for the large-scale rehabilitation of an individual home (BAR-TH-174) and another for apartments (BAR-TH-175).

Only Anah may use it for owners who are natural persons, occupants or landlords of a habitual residence. The obligated parties (as well as the delegates and agents of the EEC) may use these two sheets for second homes and social housing.

Technical conditions

The decree also specifies the technical modalities. The work will be authorized in two stages, provided that the DPE qualification C is achieved for an initial state F or G, and qualification B is achieved for an initial state E.
For a first stage of work (single or followed by a second), at least two classes must be obtained, through at least two insulation gestures, with thresholds of thermal resistance, thermal transitivity and (for glazing) solar factor specified in the future. sheet. . The draft Decree provides for a possible exemption from the thermal resistance calculation method for insulation of biological origin.

The project also specifies that “for jumps of 4 classes in a single stage or for the accumulation of class jumps of the first and second stage, an additional heat loss criterion is added. It is applied to operations based on an audit carried out from February 1″. 2024. The Ubat criterion (building heat loss) will be integrated into the audits from January 1, 2024.”
The diesel boiler cannot be preserved. The existing gas boiler can be maintained, but a new gas appliance cannot be installed either. In the case of a hybrid heat pump, thermodynamic production must cover at least 30% of the annual heat needs.

A bonus is planned (volume of CEE linked to the form), of the order of x2 for low-income households and 1.5 for others.

There is no 100% control for Anah

Finally, and this is the part that will probably make the most headlines, Anah will be subject to its own sworn certification procedures, the content of the contribution framework and controls. EEC stakeholders will be required to have 100% control, but not Anah. Since the presence of an authorized Mon Accompagnateur Rénov' operator is mandatory, Anah considers that she will carry out a first level of control.

The random checks will be maintained, but will only affect 10% of the files in total next year (without knowing, however, the total percentage of renovation works in this volume, Anah will also continue to finance the replacement of the heating system of the housing of E). The control standards resulting from the EWC experience, which have been developed in depth over the years, also do not seem to need to be adopted by Anah.
