Unlocking Energy Efficiency: Your Guide to Domestic Energy Assessments in Southern Hampshire
Understanding Domestic Energy Assessments
A Domestic Energy Assessment (DEA) is essential for anyone looking to improve their property’s energy efficiency. This assessment evaluates a home’s energy performance, helping homeowners and landlords understand how to optimize energy use.
What is an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)?
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is a document that rates the energy efficiency of a home on a scale from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). This rating helps:
- Potential buyers and renters understand energy costs.
- Landlords meet legal requirements.
- Homeowners identify areas for improvement.
