Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in MIRFIELD, WF14 8PJ. The property offers 51m² (549 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (32/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (75/100). 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 £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1132, comprising £1017 for heating, £55 for hot water, and £60 for lighting. The property produces 5.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
