Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a legally required document in the UK that provides information about the energy efficiency of a property, rated on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). It includes details on current energy use, potential savings, and practical recommendations for improving efficiency, such as better insulation or upgraded heating systems. EPCs are needed when selling, renting, or building a property and help buyers and tenants understand running costs while encouraging more sustainable choices.

The Energy Assessor visits the property to collect the required data for assessing energy features based on the construction, type of dwelling, and relevant fittings (heating systems, insulation, windows, fixed outlets, lighting, etc). Please allow easy and full access for the assessor to inspect all heating and lighting fixtures/fittings including the boilers, hot water cylinders and the electric meter.
