-   **Renting** — Landlords must ensure rental properties meet a minimum E rating under MEES regulations or face fines up to £5,000.
-   **Energy bills** — Higher-rated homes are cheaper to run. Moving from D to C could save £200–£400 per year on energy bills.
-   **Heating** — Your boiler is one of the biggest factors in your EPC score. [Check your boiler's efficiency](https://boilerchecker.com/) to see if an upgrade could improve your rating.
-   **Environment** — Better-rated homes produce fewer carbon emissions, contributing to the UK's net-zero targets.
