Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in LONDON, E3 5JD. The property offers 62m² (667 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. Currently rated F (28/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (57/100). Underfloor heating provides even heat distribution and works particularly well with heat pumps due to the lower water temperatures required. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. Triple-glazed windows provide excellent insulation, reducing heat loss by up to 40% compared to single glazing and offering superior noise reduction of up to 35dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £2217, comprising £1708 for heating, £438 for hot water, and £71 for lighting. The property produces 4.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
