Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This detached bungalow is located in CLACTON-ON-SEA, CO15 2HJ. The property offers 49.86m² (537 sq ft) of compact living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (1/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1998, comprising £1807 for heating, £152 for hot water, and £39 for lighting. The property produces 7.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
