tenant or landlord can decide whether the house
is too expensive or easy to maintain. The bigger

the bills. The fuel bills reduce dramatically.
Nowadays many companies provide cheap epc
quotes and then come to your house for
inspection. After inspecting the construction of
the property, installation of floor area,
heating, water system, insulation, ventilation
and so on. The data is taken and fed into a
computer which has a program installed that was
essentially designed to take into account all of
these statistics and then produce a rating that
is fit for the house. There are several
different types of EPC. The two most common types
of EPCs needed are Domestic EPCs for residential
properties and Non-Domestic EPCs for Commercial
premises. Non-Domestic EPCs are more commonly
known as Commercial Energy Performance
Certificates. Commercial energy performance
certificates are not only used for houses but are
also used for factories, workshops, storage
facilities and many other commercial buildings. A
