A cost-effective solution to improve EPC ratings

According to Q-Bot’s Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) based on a survey of 180 UK homes, which measures the energy efficiency of a building, Q-Bot’s insulation increases a home’s Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) rating by an average of 5 points. With an average install price of £3,380, Q-Bot is often the most cost-effective option to improve EPC ratings, at an average cost of £695 per EPC point gained. Energy Performance Certificates are required for all property in the UK and EU to summarise their energy efficiency. The higher the EPC rating, the more valuable your property.

20% CO2 savings per year  

Q-Bot’s Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) found that each year, 700kg of CO2 was saved per household that had installed Q-Bot’s insulation. This translates to the equivalent greenhouse gas emission saving as driving over 1,700 miles in a car (driving from London to Munich and back again). A much-needed measure if the UK wants to meet its net Zero carbon emissions target by 2050.
