Modern Buildings

Time is right to fix old buildings

With new legislation about it is the right time to tackle those old buildings and make sure they get up to speed in these eco-friendly and energy savings times. Using the Energy Performance Certificates as a starting point seems like a good idea to get the old buildings caught up to speed. Starting in October older buildings will have to have one of two certificates. The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is required on construction, sale or rent of a non-domestic building (regardless of size). While the Display Energy Certificate (DEC) is required under legislation for large public buildings, over 1000 m2 in floor area where there is frequent visitation by members of the public. It looks like all those energy wasters will have to get up to speed quickly.
