EPC Certification
Energy Performance Certificates
Since October 2008 it has been law for every rented property in the UK to have an EPC before it can be rented to the prospective tenant.
The EPC is valid for 10 years. Failure of any landlord to have an EPC could incur a fine of £200 – this could be levied at £200 per day for the whole time that a property has been marketed without an EPC.
There are enticements offered to landlords to make their property more energy efficient by way of a tax allowance of £1500 max. per property when money is spent on any insulation or draught proofing.
