The great benefit of an Energy Performance Certificate is it gives you the facts. It tells you what needs doing to make your home more energy efficient, using a government approved methodology, and it only recommends actions that really make a difference.
So if you’ve been thinking for a while that your gas and electricity bills are high, but you couldn’t be sure of the reason, this is your chance to get an answer. And once you know the facts, it’s easy to start a conversation with the owner of your property about how it could be improved.
Landlords know that tenants are looking for energy efficient homes, so they’ll be keener than you think to make improvements. And you’ll also save them a good deal of money, if you help them get their certificate completed when The UK Carbon Census is on your street.
