Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This terraced house is located in ORMSKIRK, L39 4QB. The property offers 72m² (775 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (1/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (79/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £6240, comprising £5110 for heating, £1040 for hot water, and £90 for lighting. The property produces 5.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
