NIA helping landlords to meet new energy efficiency regulations

The National Insulation Association (NIA) is providing assistance to private landlords to help them meet new regulations by providing access to NIA installer members to carry out work.

On 1st April 2018, the Government is introducing new regulations in England and Wales which will require private landlord’s with premises that are rated EPC band F or G to upgrade them to band E by installing insulation measures before they can renew tenancies or re-let the properties.

Neil Marshall, Chief Executive of the NIA commented: “Landlords can contact their local NIA Installer member free of charge through the installer postcode locator tool on our website www.nia-uk.org to obtain a survey and quotation and details of grants available to help pay for the work. By using an NIA member, landlords can be safe in the knowledge that the installer meets stringent criteria and has signed up to the NIA’s Code of Professional Practice providing added assurance and recourse.”

"We believe it's important that landlords have access to the most trusted and reliable of local specialists, and we hope that our online service will enable landlords to meet their obligations by making their properties more energy efficient."   

“Landlords should be thinking about what they need to do to meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES) and how they can provide warmer homes for their tenants.  The minimum E rating may be raised further in the future and so landlords with buildings rated F or G may decide that they wish to spend more than the minimum in order to bring those buildings to D or above.”
