How to improve your EPC rating
An EPC rating tells you how energy efficient your home is. The better the rating, the more money you could save on heating and lighting bills. Find out how to improve your rating with our handy video and recommendations.
What’s a good EPC rating?
The rating is awarded by an independent assessor who looks at things like insulation, average energy costs and window glazing to determine your final score out of 100. Scores are grouped to give an overall rating of A to G. The higher the EPC rating, the better it is.
You can use the government’s EPC checker to find out what your property's EPC rating is and see whether your certificate is still valid. EPCs last for 10 years but you’ll need to be re-assessed if you’ve had work carried out on the property.
