Equipped for Energy Classification

摘要

As you may have seen in recent media coverage, as from June of this year, if you want to sell your house, you will need an energy classification certificate. This will grade your property's heat and power efficiency, guiding prospective buyers towards the domicile that will cost the least to heat and light, and leave the smallest carbon footprint. All new dwellings have to have a certificate, and as it is now to be adhered to existing properties, there are moans and groans coming from various areas of the housing industry, and sales agents in particular. The gradings work like the ratings on fridges and other appliances that you will see in electrical stores.
