Render-blocking requests
1.9 s20 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.0 s · 640 KiBAbout 640 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.0 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 44
44/100Your mobile performance score is 44. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (POWr, Google Tag Manager and Cookiebot and others), adding 1.7 MB and 1.2 s of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
600 ms · 313 KiB16 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (313 KiB).
POWr adds 372 ms
372 msPOWr costs a phone 372 ms of main-thread work and 62 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Google Tag Manager adds 313 ms
313 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 313 ms of main-thread work and 518 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 3.5 s
A phone's processor spends 3.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
2,818 HTML elements
The page has 2,818 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
powrcdn.com adds 140 ms
140 mspowrcdn.com costs a phone 140 ms of main-thread work and 609 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Reduce unused CSS
154 KiBAbout 154 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
7 long tasks on the main thread
7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 114 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
Improve image delivery
33 KiB3 images could be 33 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.6 MB in 322 requests
3.6 MBYour homepage downloads 3.6 MB in 322 requests on a phone: scripts 1.8 MB (98), other files 884 KiB (132) and images 424 KiB (48). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
Trade_Store_Banner_update_2.png is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image in older formats
1 image (81 KiB) is JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
1.03 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.03 g of CO₂e: 123.2 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
Links must have discernible text (15 elements)
Links must have discernible text: 15 elements on the page fail this check, rated serious by axe-core.
8 text elements with low contrast
8 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
4 images without alt text
4 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (12 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 12 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h4 and h2 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

53 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 61 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 53 passed and 8 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

3 pages without a meta description
https://bpcventilation.com/policies/shipping-policy, https://bpcventilation.com/collections/mvhr-diy-kits and https://bpcventilation.com/collections/mev-diy-kits have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
