RDSAP10 effect on existing heat pump EPC rating?
@mike-patrick my understanding is that ashp should definitely be an improvement. But it maybe more than just a tickbox error.
I think Assessors should use the exact make & model + MCS cert to get the details right. If they can't find your make/model etc they may use assumptions that are totally incorrect. The controls are also important. Preferably demonstrating using weather compensation. They still award points for thermostats/secondary controls even though most people say its best run 24x7 on open loop and weather compensation
Have you contacted the assessor and asked for it to be re-checked? Offering evidence?
