QHome 2: More comfort, lower costs, higher value

When looking for a new home, choosing a building with energy class A is one of the most important decisions you will make. It is a strategic move that directly affects not only your comfort, but also your family budget and the long-term value of your investment. Since 2024, regulations have changed radically. “Class A” is no longer just a bonus, but a new legal requirement. The difference, however, lies in how this class is achieved. **What does “Class A” mean to you today?** Every new building in Bulgaria must now meet the requirements for a “Nearly Zero Energy Building” (NZEB). To meet class “A”, the law requires a minimum of 55% of the energy for heating, cooling and domestic hot water to come from renewable sources (RES). By choosing a home in QHome 2, you get all the benefits of the highest energy standard: - **Significantly lower bills:** QHome 2 is designed with a focus on energy efficiency. Thanks to modern technologies and materials, heat losses are minimal. This means noticeably lower heating and cooling costs. - **First-class comfort**: Class A buildings provide excellent insulation and constant temperature control. This guarantees warmth in winter and coolness in summer with minimal effort. - **Healthy environment**: The high standard of QHome 2 also includes high-class ventilation solutions that contribute to optimal indoor air quality. - **Higher asset value**: In the long term, buildings with a high energy class retain and increase their value better. The demand for energy-efficient homes is growing, making your home in QHome 2 a smart investment for the future. **The Smart Choice: Why is QHome 2 “future-proof”?** Many buildings on the market still rely on short-term solutions such as gasification. However, the new European directive (EPBD 2024/1275) introduces the next big step: from 1 January 2030, all new buildings in the EU must be “Zero-Emission Buildings” (ZEB). This definition explicitly requires zero carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels on site. This means that any building that relies entirely on gas risks being considered regulatory obsolete in the near future. In QHome 2, we have chosen modern, highly efficient systems powered by renewable sources. Our approach completely eliminates fossil fuels on site, providing both heating and extremely efficient cooling through a built-in heat pump and underfloor heating installation. **This makes QHome 2:** 1. Fully compliant with today's 55% RE requirements. 2. 100% ready for future European standards for "Zero Emission Buildings" after 2030. Choosing a home in QHome 2 is more than just buying a property. It is an investment in peace of mind, lower operating costs and an asset whose value will grow because it is designed to the standards of tomorrow. 🔗 Discover the available apartments in front of ACT 15 and view the project here: https://www.acme.bg/building/building-qhome-2

With the upcoming changes to the Energy Efficiency Act and the new European Directives (EPBD), the real estate market in Bulgaria is entering a completely new era. All new listings for sale or rent must necessarily contain data on the energy consumption class and the specific annual primary energy consumption (kWh/sq m). The European Union's goal is clear: **by 2030, all new residential buildings should be zero-emission**. While for a large part of standard new projects and the old building stock this means future expensive renovations or a decline in market value, for apartment owners in **QHome 2** this guarantees maximum liquidity and security of the investment. "**How ​​much energy does your apartment consume?" — The new rule of the market** If until now buyers chose a property mainly by location, floor and square footage, the new certificates introduce the most important indicator for everyday life — **maintenance and energy costs**. - • **Mass buildings on the market (Class C or D)**: Consume between 180 and 290 kWh/sq m of primary energy per year. - • **QHome 2 (Certified Class A)**: Consumes only 76.36 kWh/sq m of primary energy per year — **over 3 times less than standard new construction.** "In a two-room apartment of 78 sq m, this difference translates into over €1,100 saved each year on heating, cooling and hot water bills," say the investment team of the construction and investment company AKMI **Real-life example of savings: Two-room and Three-room Apartment** Here's what the electricity and heating bills look like over the year, depending on the type of home: 🏠️ **Two-room apartment (e.g. Apartment 15 B — 78.01 sq m)** In a standard new building with energy class C or D, the annual primary energy consumption is around 210 kWh/sq m, which means a total consumption of approximately 16,380 kWh per year. In **QHome 2**, thanks to the certified energy class A, the annual consumption is only 76.36 kWh/m2, or approximately 5,956 kWh per year – almost three times lower consumption. Even more importantly, 74% of the energy required is provided by a renewable source through the individual heat pump, while in standard buildings this share is 0%. **In practice, this means annual heating, cooling and hot water costs of around €1,585 in a standard building; around €485 per year in QHome 2.** The real difference is approximately **€1,100 saved each year**, which equates to **over €90 lower monthly costs**. Over a period of 10 years, this means **over €11,000 saved**, without taking into account future increases in electricity prices. ------------- 🏠️ **Three-room apartment (e.g. Apartment 14 B — 120.89 sq m)** In a standard new building with energy class C or D, the annual primary energy consumption is around 210 kWh/sq m, which results in a total energy consumption of approximately 25,380 kWh per year. In **QHome 2**, thanks to the certified energy class A and the implemented high-efficiency technologies, the annual consumption is only 76.36 kWh/sq m, or approximately 9,230 kWh per year – over 2.7 times lower energy consumption. An additional advantage is that **74% of the required energy is provided by a renewable source** through the individual heat pump system, while in standard buildings this share is 0%. **In practice, this means that the annual costs for heating, cooling and domestic hot water are around €2,455 in a standard new construction, while in **QHome 2** they are approximately €740.** The actual annual savings exceed **€1,715**, which means over **€140 lower monthly costs** for a family of four. Over a period of **10 years, this represents over €17,100 in savings**, without taking into account future increases in electricity prices. ------------ The project is the work of **I/O Architects** — one of the most recognizable and awarded Bulgarian architectural offices with extensive international experience and an emblematic approach to the modern urban environment. The construction is being carried out by AKMI OOD — an established company with an impeccable reputation in the implementation of premium residential and public projects. Multiple winner of the "**Building of the Year**" award: The builder's portfolio includes a number of iconic and recognizable buildings that have become a benchmark for quality, innovation and high investment value not only in Bulgaria, but also internationally. **The secret behind the exceptional results of the QHome 2 building lies in the implementation of modern technologies both at the design and implementation levels** - • **Individual heat pump systems**: Each apartment has its own heat pump for heating and cooling, equipped with a built-in 200-liter hot water boiler. - • **Underfloor heating throughout the apartment**: To ensure maximum thermal comfort throughout the year. - • **74% RES share**: Most of the energy needed for the household is extracted renewable directly from the environment - • **External walls (40 cm total package)**: Filled with high-class Wienerberger bricks (Porotherm) + 15 cm of thermal insulation, guaranteeing exceptional acoustic and thermal insulation. - • **Roof insulation**: 20 cm of stone wool on the roof for complete elimination of heat loss and maximum thermal comfort on the top floors in all seasons. - • **Additional floor insulation in apartments and common areas (10 cm EPS)**: The underfloor heating pad is duplicated with a 10 cm high-class EPS thermal and noise insulation layer. This combination eliminates impact noise between floors and prevents heat loss downwards, directing all energy back to the living space. - • **Premium window system**: Reynaers Masterline 8 aluminum window system — a global standard for energy efficiency, structural stability, high-class noise insulation and modernist design. - • **High-end elevator technology**: The building is equipped with high-end TK Elevator (Thyssenkrupp) elevator systems — guaranteeing maximum safety, smooth and silent operation, energy efficiency and modern interior design. - • **Presentative common areas**: Elegant entrance areas and landings, filled with luxurious and sustainable materials, providing a feeling of premium class and comfort from the very threshold of the building. 🛡️ **Investment protected from inflation and regulations** Purchasing a home in a Class A building like QHome 2 is not just a matter of low monthly bills. It guarantees: - • High rental yield: Tenants are increasingly looking for properties with low utility costs. - • Protection against electricity price increases: Even if energy prices rise, low consumption protects the family budget. - • High resale value: Properties that meet the 2030 environmental standards will retain and increase their price. 🎁 **Special advantage when buying before Act 16** **The building is currently before Act 15 (with completed rough construction under Art. 181 of the ZUT) and with guaranteed 100% bank financing from Allianz Bank at a preferential interest rate of 2.2%. For buyers who make a decision at this stage, construction and investment company ACME offers a special price advantage of up to 20% compared to the final price of Act 16, which brings a real saving of €45,000 to over €110,000 with VAT depending on the selected property.** 👉 **Check out the available Class A apartments in QHome 2 and reserve your property with a price before Act 16 at** [**www.acme.bg/building/building-qhome-2**]..
