Your attention is drawn to the fact that our assessors follow a specific, government created, data collection system to produce the EPC and there is little chance of ambiguity within this. The RdSAP methodology used to produce a residential EPC is limited and does not encompass all possible physical scenarios, and as a result sometimes it is impossible to convey within the EPC the trueness of the property.
