To obtain an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) in London, you must provide specific information and grant access to the property. This allows a certified energy assessor to evaluate your building’s energy efficiency accurately.
Key Evidence Required Includes:
Access to the Full Property
The assessor needs unrestricted access to all areas including loft spaces, basements, and heating systems to perform a comprehensive inspection.Details About Heating and Cooling Systems
Documentation or visible evidence of central heating, boilers, air conditioning units, and thermostats is required. For newer or upgraded systems, installation certificates can help support efficiency claims.Building Fabric Information
This includes insulation details (loft, wall, and floor), double glazing, and building materials. If insulation is hidden, documentary evidence such as receipts or certificates may be necessary.Lighting and Ventilation Features
The assessor checks for low-energy lighting and mechanical ventilation systems. Providing any relevant data can help boost your EPC rating.Previous EPC or Architectural Plans
While not mandatory, having a previous Residential EPC or property layout plan can speed up the assessment.
Why Provide Accurate Evidence?
Supplying accurate information ensures your EPC rating reflects the true energy performance of your home or building. Better ratings can increase property value, support legal compliance, and help you plan energy-saving improvements.
