Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached flat is located in SPALDING, PE11 2UG. The property offers 53m² (570 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (31/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (53/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. 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. 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 £1071, comprising £783 for heating, £235 for hot water, and £53 for lighting. The property produces 3.6 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
