EPC eligibility

An energy performance certificate (EPC) gives information

about a property’s energy use, with recommendations on how to reduce energy demand and save money. It’s required every time you buy, sell or rent a property.

Before we approve any grant application, we check that a property’s EPC:

was issued within the last 10 years

has no recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation

Addressing problems with loft or cavity wall insulation

If your property’s EPC has recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation, you’ll need to do the following before your installer claims the grant at the end of the project:

Install the relevant insulation.

Commission a new EPC.

Make sure the new EPC has no recommendations for loft or cavity wall insulation.
