Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)
An Energy Performance Certificate is required for all residential and commercial properties in the UK that are for sale or rent and EPC Certificate is valid for 10 years.
Accreditation ensures that all energy assessments are completed to the highest standard by our team of regional assessors.
In the UK, we are able to offer both domestic household and commercial EPCs services. We employ a group of completely certified residential and commercial energy aassessors to perform site energy survey. We take great satisfaction in offering EPC servicing that is quick, friendly, and cost-effective.
We will try to get your reports available within 12-24 hours after finishing the site survey.
What is an Energy Performance Certificate?
An EPC assigns an A–G rating based on how energy-efficient a building is. They are created using standardised techniques and energy usage hypotheses to make it simple to compare the energy efficiency of various buildings. This enables potential tenants, landlords, and property purchasers to view data on the energy efficiency and carbon emissions from their building so they may take these factors into account when making a new real estate investment.
The following factors are considered by the assessor when conducting an EPC assessment:
- Walls and roof insulation
- Windows Glazing
- Heating system
- Fireplaces
- Lighting
- Renewable energy such as solar panels or wind turbines
- The dimensions of the building & heat loss walls
The assessor rates the property’s energy performance after the inspection, with “G” being the least efficient and “A” being the most efficient.
Requirements for Energy Performance Certificates
An EPC is good for 10 years and may be applied more than once during that time. When a facility is built, rented, or sold, an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) must be present as it is a legal obligation.
Energy assessors will conduct the site survey, which is governed by the
Energy Performance of Buildings Regulation (2012).
Residents and landlords will have an idea of how much it will cost to heat and provide energy to a particular house thanks to a professional EPC rating. Since the property will already be highly insulated, it stands to reason that the better the EPC rating, the cheaper the average cost to heat the property will be. Recommendations for energy-efficient property upgrades are also included in EPC surveys to raise the EPC rating.
How to Obtain an Energy Performance Certificate
A qualified and accredited energy assessor will check the building for important energy indicators as part of the energy performance evaluation required to complete an EPC assessment.
It’s simple to get an EPC rating; just get in touch with us or fill out our quote form, and we’ll send a qualified energy performance specialist to your home or business. You’ll receive your reports within 24 hours of the survey’s conclusion.
