What is EPC Certificate?

This Energy Performance Certificate is produced by an Energy Assessor, who is licensed by a government approved Accreditation Scheme.

The Energy Assessor has a duty to provide an EPC in accordance with the ‘Scheme' standards and regulations.

To get a licence from the scheme an Energy Assessor has to:

• Pass an assessment of skills, in line with National Occupational Standards; and
• Have insurance that covers negligence.

Energy Assessors must follow necessary standards and as specified by their ‘Scheme' Code of Conduct.

An Energy Performance Certificate is not valid unless it has been produced by an Energy Assessor who is a member of a government approved scheme and it has been entered on the Energy Performance Certificate Registers. The Energy Performance Certificate Registers are operated by Landmark on behalf of the Government.

Any further services the Energy Assessor may provide are not covered by these terms and so must be covered by a separate contract.

The EPC Certificate tells you:

• The properties performance is rated in terms of the energy used per square meter of floor area, energy efficiency based on fuel costs and environmental impact on Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
• The energy performance of this home on the date it was inspected, and provides the necessary Energy Performance Certificate.
• The energy efficiency rating is a measure of the overall efficiency of a home. The higher the rating, the more efficient the home is and the lower the fuel bills are likely to be.
• The environmental impact rating is a measure of a home's impact upon the environment in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The higher the rating, the less impact it has on the environment.
• The EPC Certificare contains an Energy Performance Certificate that tells you about the energy and environmental performance of the home and suggests improvements that you can make.

This EPC Certificate does not tell you:

• The value of your home or cover things that are more specifically considered when a valuation is provided, such as the locality of the home or the availability of public transport or facilities;
• About the condition of the building or its building services; or about any health and safety risks noted by the Energy Assessor except in respect of such risks to the Energy Assessor as may restrict the scope of the inspection.
A seller, buyer or lender who needs advice on subjects that are not covered by the Energy Performance Certificate must arrange for it to be provided separately.

What is inspected?

The Energy Assessor inspects the inside and outside of the main building and the visible parts of the gas and electricity services. No parts of the building requiring access equipment will be inspected except lofts which can be safely accessed from a 3 metre ladder (which the Energy Assessor will provide).

Important note

The inspection is ‘non-invasive'. This means that the Energy Assessor does not take up carpets, floor coverings or floorboards, move furniture or remove the contents of cupboards. Also, the Energy Assessor does not remove secured panels or undo electrical fittings.

The Energy Assessor will say in a covering letter where it was not possible to inspect any parts of the home that are normally reported on.

Where the Energy Assessor has reason to be concerned about these parts, the letter will tell you about any further investigations that are needed. The Energy Assessor does not Report on the cost of any remedial work or how these recommendations should be carried out.

Rights of the Energy Assessor to withdraw from the Contract

The Energy Assessor has the right to withdraw from the agreed Contract if one or more of the following conditions apply:

• If the property poses a threat to the Energy Assessor's health and safety beyond the normal domestic risks reasonable for a property in current residential occupation.
• If access, for the Energy Assessor's visual inspection, is found to be restricted and if such restriction is likely, in their opinion, to have a material effect upon the completeness and/or accuracy of the Energy Performance Certificate.
• If electricity, gas (if provided) and water services are not fully connected and in working condition during the inspection (which will include having a lamp in every light fitting).
• If any part of the property or the premises is a building site, unless the current building works are being managed by a contractor, who is competent in construction health and safety and who will be present throughout the duration of the inspection, ensuring compliance with the accepted site safety rules.
• If a potential or actual conflicts of interest come to the Energy Assessor's notice at any stage throughout the process.
It should be noted that if the withdrawal is due to something the client or their agent's could have prevented then the Energy Assessor reserves the right to charge a fee, pro rata, for the abortive work.

Rights of the Client to cancel the Contract

The Client has the right to withdraw from the Contract at any point. Formal notice of withdrawal must be made in writing to the Energy Assessor.

The Energy Assessor reserves the right to charge an abortive fee, pro rata, for work completed up to the point of the receipt of the Client's Withdrawal Notice.

Data Protection

The Energy Assessor will hold personal information in accordance with the Data Protection Act [1998] and this information will not be used for any purpose other than the production of the Energy Performance Certificate.
