Finding out about your home
Do you know your Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) rating? You can find out here.
You can search if your home has an EPC certificate, and if it has, you can see suggested ways that you can improve the property, and how much it might cost and how much it might save.
If you are renting a property, the landlord must comply with the Minimum level of Energy Efficiency Standard (MEES).
