Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in MANCHESTER, M19 3BW. The property offers 62.67m² (675 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (29/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (46/100). The gas central heating system has average efficiency, indicating a boiler that may be 10-15 years old. While functional, upgrading to a modern A-rated condensing boiler could improve efficiency by 15-25%. 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 £1302, comprising £1069 for heating, £201 for hot water, and £32 for lighting. The property produces 7.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
