What You Need to Know About EPCs
An EPC is a document that shows the property's energy performance and assesses its energy efficiency. It also provides advice on how to improve the building’s energy efficiency. The EPC rating ranges from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
The EPC will show the amount (in tonnes) of carbon dioxide emissions produced by your property. The higher the rating, the lesser the negative impact on the environment. An EPC also provides recommendations on how to reduce your emissions.
Types of EPCs
Residential EPCs
A residential EPC is required when a home is built, rented out or sold. EPCs provide potential buyers with an insight into the energy efficiency of a property before they commit to buying it and can help them better understand running costs over time.
Commercial EPCs
Commercial EPCs must include information about the energy usage of the building and a recommendation report detailing ways to make improvements. EPC ratings are based on insulation, heating, lighting and air conditioning systems.
The EPC also has an Energy Index rating (EI) which indicates how much energy is used per hour compared to other buildings of similar size and type.
SAP EPCs
SAP energy performance certificates are needed when a building is renovated in a way that changes its energy use and number of dwellings. SAP EPCs are not required for all properties in the UK, but are needed for any new construction or major renovation project.
Benefits of EPCs
EPCs provide an efficient way to assess how much energy a building consumes and its potential savings. Potential buyers and renters gain access to valuable information before they commit to purchasing or renting a property.
An EPC also helps landlords and homeowners understand how changes can be made to their building to improve its overall energy efficiency rating.
What to Expect During an EPC Inspection?
The inspection is usually conducted by a qualified energy assessor, who will use specialist equipment to gather data about the property. The assessor will evaluate insulation, windows, and heating and cooling systems to see how well they work. They will also consider the size of the home or building and the number of people who live there.
This data is then used to generate an energy performance certificate, which gives the property a rating from A to G. The inspection usually takes around 30 minutes for an average two-bedroom house, and the cost will vary depending on the size of the property.
