Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)

Energy Performance Certificates (EPCs)

An energy performance certificate (EPC) is a document that provides information on the energy efficiency of a building. It rates the energy performance of a property on a scale of A to G and provides recommendations for how to improve its efficiency.

Landlord EPC Advice

Landlords must ensure they provide an EPC to prospective tenants when renting out a property, and that the property achieves a minimum 'F' rating. Following the recommendations on the EPC can help landlords reduce energy consumption, save money on bills, and make their property more attractive to tenants.

Thermography

An infrared (IR) camera can be used to identify drafts and points of disproportionate heat loss in a building by detecting temperature differences in the surfaces of walls, windows, and doors. This allows building owners to locate areas that require insulation or weather sealing, which can help reduce energy consumption and save money on heating and cooling costs.
