OCEPC / OCEA or On Construction EPC
Your Local Authority Building Control Authority will not issue a completion certificate on your new build or conversion without an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
Building Control are unable to issue a completion certificate without an EPC. Furthermore the sale of the property cannot proceed without an EPC.
It is the responsibility of the builder to provide an EPC when a home is constructed and physically completed from 6 April 2008. This will also apply if a building is converted into fewer or more units and changes are made to the heating, hot water provision or air conditioning/ventilation service, and can also include some extensions.
To produce a new build EPC, the On Construction Energy Assessor will need to use an approved version of the SAP software. The completed Energy Performance Certificate must be registered and stored in the national register at www.EPCregister.com. with a unique reference number. This must be done by the On Construction Energy Assessor in conjunction with their accreditation scheme.
Pali can carry out your SAP calculation and provide you with an EPC. This is the result of the “as built” check which is an extension of the SAP calculation needed by building control.
Once we have a signed declaration from the builder listing any alterations from design, Pali can issue the EPC and provide evidence to your Building Control Authority.
We can supply the EPC in electronic or paper form the to requested recipient.
Selling your property before completion, then you need a Predicative Energy Assessment to go in the now required Home Information Pack.
Need a Home information pack? Pali has national coverage and can provide you with discounts on plots containing more than two dwellings
