Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This semi-detached house is located in PETERBOROUGH, PE2 8BN. The property offers 113m² (1216 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (11/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £3512, comprising £3010 for heating, £386 for hot water, and £116 for lighting. The property produces 11.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
