Commercial EPC Surveys in St Helens
It all starts with a detailed assessment of your business premises by one of our accredited energy assessors.
This involves a full survey of the property, including checking out certain key areas that are known to have an impact on your property’s energy-efficiency. They will take readings and measurements that they will subsequently use to calculate your EPC rating.
Energy Performance Certificates in St Helens
After the EPC survey has been completed, we are able to produce your official Energy Performance Certificate. Using the data collected during the inspection, our EPC assessors calculate your current rating, which will be included on the Certificate itself, alongside some other key details, such as the building’s address, type, and overall floor area. Your EPC also shows the date of inspection, as well as the date of certification and a unique serial number.
EPC Recommendations in St Helens
As well as calculating your current EPC rating, our assessors also make note of any recommendations they might have to improve your property’s energy efficiency. This is all part of our commitment to mitigating the environmental impact of our clients by reducing their level of energy use.
Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards
Our St Helens clients should be aware of the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES), which affect both commercial and domestic properties. With effect from 1st April 2018, it is unlawful to grant a lease (either new or a renewal) on properties that score an F or a G rating on their EPC. Fortunately for our customers in the towns, we can provide you with effective advice that will help your achieve this standard.
