Summary of the energy performance related features of this homeThis table sets out the results of the survey which lists the current energy-related features of this home. Each elementis assessed by the national calculation methodology; 1 star = very poor (least efficient), 2 stars = poor, 3 stars =average, 4 stars = good and 5 stars = very good (most efficient). The assessment does not take into consideration thecondition of an element and how well it is working. ‘Assumed’ means that the insulation could not be inspected and anassumption has been made in the methodology, based on age and type of construction.

The energy efficiency rating of your homeYour Energy Efficiency Rating is calculated using the standard UK methodology, RdSAP. This calculates energy usedfor heating, hot water, lighting and ventilation and then applies fuel costs to that energy use to give an overall ratingfor your home. The rating is given on a scale of 1 to 100. Other than the cost of fuel for electrical appliances and forcooking, a building with a rating of 100 would cost almost nothing to run.

As we all use our homes in different ways, the energy rating is calculated using standard occupancy assumptionswhich may be different from the way you use it. The rating also uses national weather information to allow comparisonbetween buildings in different parts of Scotland. However, to make information more relevant to your home, localweather data is used to calculate your energy use, CO2 emissions, running costs and the savings possible from makingimprovements.

The impact of your home on the environmentOne of the biggest contributors to global warming is carbon dioxide. The energy we use for heating, lighting and powerin our homes produces over a quarter of the UK’s carbon dioxide emissions. Different fuels produce different amountsof carbon dioxide for every kilowatt hour (kWh) of energy used. The Environmental Impact Rating of your home iscalculated by applying these 'carbon factors' for the fuels you use to your overall energy use.

The calculated emissions for your home are 70 kg CO2/m²/yr.

The average Scottish household produces about 6 tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. Based on this assessment,heating and lighting this home currently produces approximately 6.0 tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. Adoptingrecommendations in this report can reduce emissions and protect the environment. If you were to install all of theserecommendations this could reduce emissions by 3.5 tonnes per year. You could reduce emissions even more byswitching to renewable energy sources.

About the recommended measures to improve your home’s performance ratingThis section offers additional information and advice on the recommended improvement measures for your home

1 Flat roof insulationInsulating a flat roof will significantly reduce heat loss through the roof; this will improve levels of comfort, reduceenergy use and lower fuel bills. Insulation can be placed on top of the roof under the waterproof membrane andshould particularly be considered when the waterproofing needs to be replaced. Further information about roofinsulation and details of local contractors can be obtained from the National Insulation Association(www.nationalinsulationassociation.org.uk). Building regulations generally apply to this work so it is best to checkthis with your local authority building standards department.

2 Low energy lightingReplacement of traditional light bulbs with energy saving recommended ones will reduce lighting costs over thelifetime of the bulb, and they last up to 12 times longer than ordinary light bulbs. Also consider selecting lowenergy light fittings when redecorating; contact the Lighting Association for your nearest stockist of DomesticEnergy Efficient Lighting Scheme fittings.

3 Heating controls (room thermostat)The heating system should have a room thermostat to enable the boiler to switch off when no heat is required. Acompetent heating engineer should be asked to do this work. Insist that the thermostat switches off the boiler aswell as the pump and that the thermostatic radiator valve is removed from any radiator in the same room as thethermostat. Building regulations generally apply to this work and a building warrant may be required, so it is bestto obtain advice from your local authority building standards department and from a qualified heating engineer.

4 Solar water heatingA solar water heating panel, usually fixed to the roof, uses the sun to pre-heat the hot water supply. This cansignificantly reduce the demand on the heating system to provide hot water and hence save fuel and money.Planning permission might be required, building regulations generally apply to this work and a building warrantmay be required, so it is best to check these with your local authority. You could be eligible for Renewable HeatIncentive payments which could appreciably increase the savings beyond those shown on your EPC, providedthat both the product and the installer are certified by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (or equivalent).Details of local MCS installers are available at www.microgenerationcertification.org.

5 Solar photovoltaic (PV) panelsA solar PV system is one which converts light directly into electricity via panels placed on the roof with no wasteand no emissions. This electricity is used throughout the home in the same way as the electricity purchased froman energy supplier. Planning permission might be required, building regulations generally apply to this work anda building warrant may be required, so it is best to check these with your local authority. The assessment doesnot include the effect of any Feed-in Tariff which could appreciably increase the savings that are shown on thisEPC for solar photovoltaic panels, provided that both the product and the installer are certified by theMicrogeneration Certification Scheme (or equivalent). Details of local MCS installers are available atwww.microgenerationcertification.org.

6 Wind turbineA wind turbine provides electricity from wind energy. This electricity is used throughout the home in the sameway as the electricity purchased from an energy supplier. Wind turbines are not suitable for all properties. Thesystem’s effectiveness depends on local wind speeds and the presence of nearby obstructions, and a sitesurvey should be undertaken by an accredited installer. Planning permission might be required and buildingregulations generally apply to this work and a building warrant may be required, so it is best to check these withyour local authority. The assessment does not include the effect of any Feed-in Tariff which could appreciablyincrease the savings that are shown on this EPC for a wind turbine, provided that both the product and theinstaller are certified by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (or equivalent). Details of local MCS installersare available at www.microgenerationcertification.org.

PART 1 - GENERAL1.1 THE SURVEYORS

The Seller has engaged the Surveyors to provide the Single Survey Report and a generic MortgageValuation Report for Lending Purposes. The Seller has also engaged the Surveyors to provide anEnergy Report in the format prescribed by the accredited Energy Company.

The Surveyors are authorised to provide a transcript or retype of the generic Mortgage ValuationReport on to Lender specific pro-forma. Transcript reports are commonly requested by Brokers andLenders. The transcript report will be in the format required by the Lender but will contain the sameinformation, inspection date and valuation figure as the generic Mortgage Valuation Report and theSingle Survey. The Surveyors will decline any transcript request which requires the provision ofinformation additional to the information in the Report and the generic Mortgage Valuation Report untilthe Seller has conditionally accepted an offer to purchase made in writing.

Once the Seller has conditionally accepted an offer to purchase made in writing, the Purchaser'slender or conveyancer may request that the Surveyors provide general comment on standardappropriate supplementary documentation. In the event of a significant amount of documentationbeing provided to the Surveyors, an additional fee may be incurred by the Purchaser. Any additionalfee will be agreed in writing.

If information is provided to the Surveyors during the conveyancing process which materially affectsthe valuation stated in the Report and generic Mortgage Valuation Report, the Surveyors reserve theright to reconsider the valuation. Where the Surveyors require to amend the valuation in consequenceof such information, they will issue an amended Report and generic Mortgage Valuation Report to theSeller. It is the responsibility of the Seller to ensure that the amended Report and generic MortgageValuation Report are transmitted to every prospective Purchaser.

The individual Surveyor will be a member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors who iscompetent to survey, value and report upon Residential Property .

If the Surveyors have had a previous business relationship within the past two years with the Seller orSellers Agent or relative to the property, they will be obliged to indicate this by ticking the adjacent box.

The Surveyors have a written complaints handling procedure. This is available from the offices of theSurveyors at the address stated.

THE REPORTThe Surveyors will not provide an amended Report on the Property, except to correct factualinaccuracies.

The Report will identify the nature and source of information relied upon in its preparation.

The Surveyor shall provide a Market Value of the Property, unless the condition of the Property is suchthat it would be inappropriate to do so. A final decision on whether a loan will be granted rests with theLender who may impose retentions in line with their lending criteria. The date of condition and valueof the property will be the date of inspection.

To date, Purchasers have normally obtained their own report from their chosen Surveyor. By contrast,a Single Survey is instructed by the Seller and made available to all potential Purchasers in theexpectation that the successful Purchaser will have relied upon it. The Royal Institution of CharteredSurveyors rules require disclosure of any potential conflict of interest when acting for the Seller andthe Purchaser in the same transaction. The Single Survey may give rise to a conflict of interest and ifthis is of concern to any party they are advised to seek their own independent advice.

1 Which shall be in accordance with the current RICS Valuation Standards (The Red Book) and RICS Rules of Conduct.

The Surveyor will not carry out an asbestos inspection, and will not be acting as an asbestos inspectorin completing a Single Survey of properties that may fall within the Control of Asbestos in theWorkplace Regulations. In the case of flats it will be assumed that there is a duty holder, as defined inthe Regulations and that a Register of Asbestos and effective Management Plan is in place, whichdoes not require any expenditure, or pose a significant risk to health. No enquiry of the duty holder willbe made.

THE REPORTThe Report will be prepared by the Surveyor who carried out the property inspection and will describevarious aspects of the property as defined by the headings of the Single Survey report with thecomments being general and unbiased. The report on the location, style and condition of the property,will be concise and will be restricted to matters that could have a material effect upon value and willomit items that, in the Surveyor's opinion, are not significant. If certain minor matters are mentioned, itshould not be interpreted that the property is free of any other minor defects.

Throughout the report, the following repair categories will be used to give an overall opinion of thestate of repair and condition of the property.

WARNING:If left unattended, even for a relatively short period, Category 2 repairs can rapidly develop into moreserious Category 3 repairs. The existence of Category 2 or Category 3 repairs may have an adverseeffect on marketability, value and the sale price ultimately achieved for the property. This isparticularly true during slow market conditions when the effect can be considerable.

Parts of the property, which cannot be seen or accessed, will not be reported upon and this will bestated. If the Surveyor suspects that a defect may exist within an unexposed area and which couldhave a material effect upon the value, he may recommend further investigation by specialistcontractors.

SERVICESSurveyors are not equipped or qualified to test the services and therefore no comment can beinterpreted as implying that the design, installation and function of the services are inaccordance/compliance with regulations, safety and efficiency expectations. However, comment ismade where there is cause to suspect significant defects or shortcomings with the installations. Notests are made of any services or appliances.
