One Stop Solution For Getting The EPC Certificate In The UK is EPC GO

Energy Performance Certificates were introduced in 2007 and are now a legal requirement when a building is sold, rented, or built. An EPC is valid for ten years after it is issued. Band A houses are the most energy efficient and should have the lowest fuel bills. The Certificate will tell you the energy efficiency of your home on a scale of A-G, as well as the potential scale after improvements are made, with 'A' being the most efficient home. Better-rated homes should have a lower impact in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions; the EPC will show the amount of CO2 emissions produced by that property in tonnes and advise on how much this can be reduced. For both ratings, the average property in the UK falls into the D-E range. The Certificate includes recommendations on how to improve the energy efficiency of your home to save money and help the environment. EPCs also apply to commercial buildings and are only rated by carbon dioxide emissions on a scale of A-G.
