An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) provides information on the energy, efficiency, heating costs and carbon emissions of a property. The EPC is a legal requirement for those looking to rent out a property or sell a property.

The EPC will produce the results in a graph form, rating each one from A to G (with A being the most efficient). It also will contain recommendations on how to improve the specific building’s energy efficiency. All EPCs are produced by licensed Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs) or Home Inspectors.

The EPC certificate displays two graphs on it. The first is the energy-efficiency rating; a measure of the home’s overall efficiency. The higher the rating, the more energy-efficient the home is and therefore the lower the fuel bills are likely to be. The second graph is an environmental impact rating, measured on the home’s impact on the environment, as well as its carbon dioxide emissions. The ratings will also list the potential rating the building can achieve if all cost-effective measures were installed.

When you instruct Thomas & Rose to rent of sell your property, we can order the EPC for you.  The costs of which is £80.00 plus VAT (£96.00 inclusiive of VAT)
