Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in BARKING, IG11 9TL. The property offers 119mยฒ (1281 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (29/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 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 ยฃ2578, comprising ยฃ2079 for heating, ยฃ279 for hot water, and ยฃ220 for lighting. The property produces 6.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
