Qualified EPC expert in Larnaca

Qualified EPC expert in Larnaca: request quotes from local professionals and compare prices, timings and terms.

An energy performance study shows that a new or majorly renovated building meets the minimum energy requirements, and in Cyprus new buildings must be nearly zero-energy. The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC, known locally as ΠΕΑ) rates a building on an energy scale and is needed, among other cases, when you sell or let a property. Both are prepared by a Qualified Expert listed on the official register, using the official calculation methodology.

Larnaca has plenty of new housing and regeneration work, and many properties are close to the sea. There, salt air and humidity call for proper waterproofing and corrosion-resistant materials. Ask professionals to state in their quote which materials they propose and why.

FAQ

When do I need an EPC?

Usually when you build a new property, when you sell or let one, and often when applying for energy upgrade grant schemes.

How long is an EPC valid?

An EPC is valid for up to ten years. If you make significant changes, such as new insulation or a new heating system, it is worth getting a new one.

What is the difference between the energy study and the EPC?

The study is done at design stage so that the permit can be approved. The EPC records the building's energy performance as it stands, and for a new building it is issued on completion.
