Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This detached bungalow is located in CALLINGTON, PL17 8NF. The property offers 114m² (1227 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. Currently rated G (14/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (64/100). The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. 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 £2492, comprising £2133 for heating, £280 for hot water, and £79 for lighting. The property produces 9.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
