A being very efficient and G being inefficient. They will be carried out by accredited Domestic or Non Domestic Energy Assessors (DEA). These assessors are trained on energy efficiency savings. They also do the survey to produce the EPC report.

A. If you live in England or Wales the simple answer is yes! As of the 21st May 2010 any property that is marketed for sale or put up for rent will need one.

Q. Do I need an EPC before I put my home up for sale?
A. You don't need to have an EPC in place to market your property providing you have booked and paid for a Domestic Energy Assessor to do your EPC. If you market your property without either and EPC or a booked appointment you would be liable for a fine.
