Residential & Commercial EPC Services in Hull
The team at EPC Yorkshire is pleased to provide Energy Performance Certificates for both residential and commercial properties throughout Hull. These evaluations are intended to shed light upon important variables such as the amount of energy a location consumes, average costs over a set period of time and the ways in which these surcharges can be reduced. Not only can an EPC service save a great deal of time, but it will provide ratings from A (the most efficient) to G (an extremely low level of efficiency). Note that a commercial EPC in Hull will remain valid for a total of ten years.
The Importance of an EPC Rating
Obtaining an Energy Performance Certificate has been mandated by law since 2008 and this analysis is required when performing any type of real estate transaction. This is particularly important for those who happen to own or are looking to market rental properties.
As suggested from the title, energy efficiency is the primary concern. The United Kingdom is looking to lower its overall carbon footprint and this is heavily reliant upon the efforts made throughout domestic property markets. Some of the variables that an EPC provider in Hull will examine include:
- The age and size of the property
- The type of insulation that has been installed
- The condition of primary heating systems
- The presence of any renewable energy sources
- Whether or not double-glazed windows are present
These metrics will then be used to provide the property with a transparent rating; allowing the owners to reduce costs while protecting the environment from a long-term perspective.
Obtaining a Valid EPC in Hull
Obtaining this certification will require an on-site residential or commercial EPC survey. Experts first evaluate all of the factors mentioned above before rating the location between A and G.
An A rating signifies that the property has already adopted a host of energy-efficient practices while ratings of F or G suggests that updates are required in order to adhere to modern coding standards (and to save money).
This is why it is often a good idea for property owners to compare ratings with similar buildings in order to determine which modifications may be warranted.
