The energy efficiency rating is a measure of theoverall efficiency of a home. The higher the ratingthe more energy efficient the home is and the lowerthe fuel bills are likely to be.

The environmental impact rating is a measure of ahome's impact on the environment in terms ofcarbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. The higher therating the less impact it has on the environment.

To enable this comparison the figures have been calculated using standardised running conditions (heating periods, room temperatures, etc.) that are the same for all homes, consequently they are unlikely to match an occupier's actual fuel bills and carbon emissions in practice. The figures do not include the impacts of the fuels used for cooking or running appliances, such as TV, fridge etc.; nor do they reflect the costs associated with service, maintenance or safety inspections. Always check the certificate date because fuel prices can change over time and energy saving recommendations will evolve.
