- Read the published rating and recommendations in the context of the assessment date.
When to use it
Use EPC research before a viewing or when considering energy improvements. It helps organise questions for the seller, landlord or assessor.
UK coverage and assumptions
The connected open-data service covers England and Wales. A certificate is a dated energy assessment, not a structural survey or a prediction of your household’s bills.
Frequently asked questions
Does a better rating guarantee lower bills?
No. Energy use depends on occupancy, heating choices, tariffs and changes since assessment. The rating uses a defined methodology rather than your personal consumption.
Can several certificates exist for one address?
Yes. Check dates and identifiers and whether a newer assessment exists. An old record may have been replaced or expired.
Does the postcode confirm the property match?
No. A postcode can contain many homes. Match the exact address or relevant identifier before using floor area or certificate details.
