Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?
This detached house is located in LUTON, LU3 3PN. The property offers 169.11m² (1820 sq ft) of spacious living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (30/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (60/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £2302, comprising £1836 for heating, £266 for hot water, and £200 for lighting. The property produces 16.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home. The property last sold in November 2020 for £555,000.
