Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in WALSALL, WS5 3HF. The property offers 128mยฒ (1378 sq ft) of spacious living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (30/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (72/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs ยฃ300-ยฃ500 and could save ยฃ150-ยฃ250 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 ยฃ2298, comprising ยฃ1874 for heating, ยฃ291 for hot water, and ยฃ133 for lighting. The property produces 11.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in October 2015 for ยฃ472,000.
