About This Property
This terraced flat is located in WOLVERHAMPTON, WV3 9QB. The property offers 55m² (592 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a modern property built in the 2000s. The property holds an EPC rating of C (75/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. Double glazing is installed, though the efficiency rating suggests older units. Modern low-E double glazing can be up to 40% more efficient than units installed before 2002. Estimated annual energy costs are £672, comprising £275 for heating, £338 for hot water, and £59 for lighting. The property produces 2.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
