Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in NEWMARKET, CB8 9UZ. The property offers 360m² (3875 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 10 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (32/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (49/100). The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The property has modern timber frame or system-built walls, which typically offer good insulation properties when properly maintained. The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £4884, comprising £4398 for heating, £273 for hot water, and £213 for lighting. The property produces 4.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
