Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in ASHBOURNE, DE6 4LN. The property offers 72m² (775 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. Currently rated F (35/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (75/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. 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 £1789, comprising £1481 for heating, £209 for hot water, and £99 for lighting. The property produces 6.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. The property last sold in December 2019 for £90,000.
