Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached house is located in HULL, HU5 2TG. The property offers 265m² (2852 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 11 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (30/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (72/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. 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. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. 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 £4405, comprising £4093 for heating, £176 for hot water, and £136 for lighting. The property produces 25.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in May 2017 for £249,000.
