Energy Efficiency, EPC's are valid for 10 years

EPC’s are valid for 10 years

The Energy Performance Certificate is 10 years old! EPC’s were introduced on 1st August 2007 as a measure of the efficiency of homes and buildings. If you’re a private landlord and your EPC is more than 10 years old, you could be fined for not having one. If you just have an EPC for your own home, there can be benefits in keeping it up to date for you too. Some of the earliest EPCs have already expired, so if you were an early adopter of the scheme, it’s worth checking the date on your certificate!
