Recommendation 31
31
Seriously improve the Energy Company Obligation policy to clarify installer accountability for poor quality retrofit work.
Recommendation
We found it incredible that the Residential Property Surveyors Association has reported that around 250,000 homes could be un-mortgageable due to spray foam insulation and that the accountability to remedy things remains unclear. We recommend that the Energy Company Obligation, as a policy to put responsibility on installers and commissioners for poor quality work, needs serious improvement. (Recommendation, Paragraph 162) 65
