With effect from Sunday 20th Sept the central web based register where all domestic, commercial EPCs, DECs and Air conditioning inspections are lodged will be moving from Landmark to a .GOV website. All previous Landmark certificates will be migrated to the new site.
The format of the certificate is also changing to make them simpler to understand, however a full draft copy of domestic EPC will no longer be available. Elmurst energy has designed a summary report which assessors can send to clients prior to lodgement.
If a property is to be let and is an F or G Grade there is now a clear statement at the top of the EPC stating that, ‘You may not be able to let this property’ as it does not meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) that became law in Apr 20 not just upon change of tenancy but for existing tenants too.
