BFRC Window Energy Savings Certificate

I recently had some double glazed windows installed and when I received the FENSA certificate, there was a leaflet in there from the BFRC offering certificates to prove their energy rating (valuable when selling my home apparently!).
Can anyone advise if it's really worth getting one. It costs £15 so obviously not a huge amount but don't want to bother with one if it's not worth doing.
Any thoughts or advice appreciated.
Thanks
Jo.

It won't make the slightest difference when you sell your home. The FENSA cert shows they conform to building regs.0

Thank you. As I understand it though, these BFRC certificates confirm the energy ratings rather than building regs compliance, which is why I wondered whether I should bother getting it. I think I'll give it a miss though.0
