Richer building details when heat pump and boiler quotes have no EPC
When your customer does not have an EPC, heat pump and boiler quote tools now fill house details from the same building data source used for solar. You may see different floor counts, building age, and heat-loss sizing on some addresses, especially flats and older properties.
Improved
- Heat pump and boiler quote tools. If there is no EPC, building outline on the map and the starting house details come from Ordnance Survey building data shared with the residential solar quote tool, including a six-month cache per property so repeat quotes on the same address do not repeat the lookup charge.
- House details without an EPC. Connectivity, number of floors, building age bands, and residential unit count from that data seed the house-details step when available, instead of generic geometry guesses alone.
- Flats. Properties classified as flats are treated as a single-storey unit for no-EPC house details so heat loss is not sized from the whole block.
- Heat pump quote tool. The control for choosing whether your customer has an EPC uses clearer emphasis on the selected option.
