Making it count, your EPC that is!
Energy performance certificates were launched in the UK in 2007, initially to help people assess homes they were thinking of buying. But they soon became a useful metric for ensuring new building were meeting building regulations.
Our current home had one for this reason - as it was built in 2010 - at least to the point where it could be assessed.
It's had two assessments since then, and somewhere between the three reports the true picture of our house's performance can be seen.
Why do I say that? Listen to this episode and find out how you can use the EPC to improve your home's energy usage.
After all, it's meant to be child's play!
Remember, the recommendations in the EPC do not have to be done all in one go to give you benefit. Insulation teamed with great heating controls have a multiplier effect more than the sum of their parts.
At the end of the episode is a teaser for next week looking at other steps to reducing your energy usage while boosting your nutrition.
