Commercial EPC's
At Landlords Compliance we are fully qualified to carry out Non-Domestic Energy Performance certificates. These are required for all commercial and non-domestic properties.
The rating is based on the estimated carbon emissions of the building, unlike EPCs for existing dwellings which are based on a property’s estimated running costs.
In addition to this, the EPC document will also show:
- a breakdown of a property’s energy performance
- recommendations for improvements (available as a separate document)
Scottish regulations for Commercial EPC's
Similar to the rest of the UK, you also need a Non-Domestic EPC in order to build, sell or let a commercial building in Scotland. There is currently no minimum energy standards in Scotland for private rented commercial building, but this is expected to be introduced in the near future. A Non-Domestic EPC in Scotland is valid for 10 years.
Commercial buildings with a floor area of more than 1,000 m² are subject to Section 63 regulations. The rules are triggered upon the sale or lease to a new tenant, and stipulate that an EPC must be carried out along with a further assessment to produce an ‘Action Plan’.
The Action Plan identifies targets for improvement of the carbon and energy performance of the building and how these targets would be met. The Action Plan must be made available for prospective buyers and tenants.
Our Commercial EPC services
- Our Assessor will visit the property & collect data/information such as room dimensions, lighting, building orientation, insulation levels and heating systems & ventilation systems.
- The Assessor will need access to every part of the buildings they need to take measurements and photos.
- Carrying out the Commercial EPC is non-invasive.
- The amount of time an assessment takes is dependent on size and complexity of the building.
