The energy performance certificate shows how energy efficient a home is on a scale of A-G. The most efficient homes, which should have the lowest fuel bills, are in band A.
|
|
The certificate also shows the environmental impact the home has, again on a scale of A-G. In addition it shows the approximate current energy use, carbon dioxide emissions and fuel costs per annum, as well as the potential values if further energy saving measures were introduced.The certificate also gives recommendations on measures that could be introduced to improve the energy rating.
