EPC legislation enforcement picks up pace
Friday, June 26th, 2009Do I need a Commercial EPC if the building is not heated ?
Friday, June 26th, 2009We get asked this question frequently. The commercial EPC law stipulates that if a commercial property has a heating systems or cooling system in place it will require a commercial EPC. It will also require an EPC if the property has mechanical ventilation e.g extract fan(s). i.e If the building uses energy to condition the indoor climate it will need an commercial EPC prior to it being marketed.
