Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in BRISTOL, BS6 7UP. The property offers 232m² (2497 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (34/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (71/100). 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 loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £3236, comprising £2888 for heating, £134 for hot water, and £214 for lighting. The property produces 16.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in February 2019 for £875,000.
