About us

At Standbach Energy Performance, we're passionate about making your home more energy-efficient, enabling you to save on energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Our Home Energy Audit provides a detailed overview of your home's energy use, alongside recommendations for making impactful improvements.


The audit culminates with the issuance of an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC), rating your home's efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient). Your personalised EPC outlines home improvement suggestions to enhance your energy efficiency and shows how these changes could help reduce your energy consumption.


The auditing process involves a comprehensive review by our certified assessors. They'll visit your home, collect relevant data, generate your EPC, and help strategise a roadmap for improved energy use if applicable


Start your journey towards an energy-smart home with Energy Performance today.

WHAT IS AN ENERGY RATING SCALE

Efficiency ratings, from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), serve as a straightforward grading system to gauge your home's energy efficiency. The grading criteria takes into account various factors, such as your home's insulation, heating and cooling systems, and other features that affect energy consumption

These ratings are crucial for several reasons. An efficient, A-rated home uses less energy, thus reducing the cost of your utility bills. Moreover, by using less energy, your household significantly decreases its environmental impact, contributing to global sustainability efforts.

On the other hand, a home with a poor efficiency rating (closer to G) can imply wasted energy and higher costs. This could be due to inadequate insulation, inefficient heating systems, or a variety of other factors that increase energy consumption. The consequent higher energy bills and greater environmental footprint are the practical implications of a lower rating.

By understanding these ratings, you'll have a clear roadmap to make improvements. Boosting your home's energy efficiency rating not only translates to cost savings but also to a more comfortable living environment and a reduced carbon footprint. It's a win for you, your wallet, and the world.

What is Home Energy Efficiency

 

Proper insulation in your walls, loft, or floors can significantly reduce heat loss, leading to improved energy efficiency. Additionally, sealing any gaps around windows and doors can prevent drafts, reducing heat loss and improving overall energy efficiency.
Installing solar panels can significantly reduce your electricity bills, leveraging renewable energy and improving your EPC rating
Leaky ducts can lead to significant energy loss. Sealing your ductwork ensures that heated or cooled air efficiently reaches its destination, improving your home's energy efficiency.
Air leaks around your home, often found around windows, doors, or even through cracks in the wall, can lead to significant heat loss. Sealing these leaks can enhance insulation and improve your home's energy efficiency.
Replacing old light bulbs with energy-saving LED bulbs can reduce your electricity usage and improve energy efficiency.
Opting for appliances with a high energy-efficiency rating can lower energy usage and contribute to a higher EPC rating.
Upgrading to an energy-efficient heating system like a high-efficiency boiler or heat pump can cut your energy consumption and bills. Additionally, an insulated hot water cylinder will retain heat for longer, reducing the energy needed to heat up water.
Regular maintenance of your heating and cooling systems ensures they're operating at peak efficiency, reducing energy waste and improving overall energy performance.
These allow you to control your heating more effectively, reducing energy waste and improving your home's energy efficiency.
Double glazed windows help keep the heat in and the cold out, making your home more energy-efficient and comfortable
Low-flow fixtures like showerheads and faucets reduce water consumption, decreasing the energy used for heating water, and contributing to a better EPC rating.

What some of our clients say

“

Professional, efficient, and thorough - a learning curve on how many areas of a house can be inefficient and end up costing more in energy bills.

General Questions

Home Energy Audit is a survey that assesses your home's energy efficiency. The more energy-efficient your home, the more you save on energy bills.
The audit provides details on your current energy usage, recommendations for home improvements for better energy efficiency, and behavioral changes that can cut your energy bills.
Awarded as part of a Home Energy Audit, an EPC rates your home's energy efficiency from A (very efficient) to G (inefficient). It provides a list of potential home improvements for increasing your EPC rating.
A qualified assessor visits your home, takes measurements, photos, and gathers other relevant information to generate an EPC. The process takes around 1 hour.
The cost varies based on the age, size of your home, and if your home has had extensions. It typically ranges from £200 to £400.
The Government of Jersey currently offers £200 to £250 per property towards a Home Energy Audit for qualifying homeowners. The funding is allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis. Any cost exceeding the allocated funding is the homeowner's responsibility.

 

Yes, as of January 2024, it is a requirement to have an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) to sell a house. This helps potential buyers understand the energy efficiency and potential costs of running the property.
Energy audits help identify energy inefficiencies in a home, leading to recommendations for improvements that reduce energy consumption. By implementing these changes, we reduce our demand on energy resources and decrease the emission of greenhouse gases, contributing to global sustainability efforts.

Additonally, by making the property more energy efficient this should lead to lower household running costs. Tenants will see this rating and be assured that their potential energy costs should be lower than if renting a property with a lower EPC rating
A low EPC rating means there's room for improvement. The EPC includes recommendations for improving your home's energy efficiency, which in turn, will improve your rating, reduce your energy costs, and make your home more environmentally friendly.
An EPC is valid for 10 years from the date of issue. However, if significant energy-related improvements are made to the property, a new audit might be beneficial to reflect these changes.
