By reducing heat loss, less energy will be required to heat your home. The EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) rating of your home which takes into account the energy performance of windows and floors, can be improved by draught-proofing. Not only does a high EPC rating make for a more comfortable living environment, it may also help prospective buyers when selling your home. Landlords in England and Wales are required by law to get an EPC rating of band E or above when letting out properties. Draught-proofing is an easy solution to improving the energy efficiency and EPC rating whilst also reducing your carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.safelincs.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Draughtex-floorboards.jpg\" alt=\"Draught-proof your home with DraughtEx\" class=\"wp-image-9913\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.safelincs.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Draughtex-floorboards.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.safelincs.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Draughtex-floorboards-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.safelincs.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Draughtex-floorboards-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Use DraughtEx to plug draughty floorboard gaps<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Save money on your energy bills<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Draught-proofing can significantly lower your energy bills as less heating is required to maintain your home at a comfortable temperature.
