Energy Assessment Surveys
Energy assessors are responsible for carrying out assessments and producing Energy Performance Certificates, Display Energy Certificates and Air Conditioning Reports. Energy assessors must be members of an accreditation scheme and have the appropriate qualifications or competence for the type of work they carry out..

All accreditation schemes hold lists of their accredited energy assessors and should be able to provide contact details of assessors available to work in your area. Domestic Energy Assessors (DEAs) and On-Construction Domestic Energy Assessors (OCDEAs) can also be found by searching the database of accredited domestic energy assessors.

It is also likely that estate agencies, energy suppliers and other large companies will advertise if they are able to provide assessments. It is important to keep in mind that different schemes provide different types of assessor.

What does an assessment for an EPC involve?
An accredited energy assessor needs to visit a property to conduct an energy assessment for an existing building. During the assessment they collect information on the property, which includes details of its dimensions, construction and heating/hot water provision.

The time taken to perform an energy assessment will vary according to the size and nature of the property. Because of the wide variation of commercial buildings, any form of 'average time' would not be meaningful.

This information is fed into the approved software programme which produces the EPC and recommendation report. The energy assessor will then record the certificate onto a national register via his or her accreditation scheme and provide the seller, or prospective landlord with a copy. The certificate is then ready to be given to new building owners or made available to prospective buyers or tenants.

Energy Performance Certificates
Improving the energy performance of buildings
Did you know that buildings produce nearly half of the UK’s carbon emissions? That’s almost twice that of cars and planes. The way a building is constructed, insulated, heated, ventilated and the type of fuel used, all contribute to its carbon emissions. Improving energy efficiency

Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) are being introduced to help improve the energy efficiency of buildings.
If you are buying or selling a home you now need a certificate by law. From October 2008 EPCs will be required whenever a building is built, sold or rented out. The certificate provides 'A' to 'G' ratings for the building, with 'A' being the most energy efficient and 'G' being the least, with the average up to now being 'D'.

Accredited energy assessors produce EPCs alongside an associated report which suggests improvements to make a building more energy efficient.

Home Condition Survey - Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire
The Home Condition Survey (HCS) is a survey and report designed specifically for the home buyer. It has standard terms of engagement and a standard format. Unlike the HCR it will not be lodged on the entral register. It does not include an EPC so this can be offered as an additional service.
