Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This terraced flat is located in MIDDLESBOROUGH, TS5 6QL. The property offers 54m² (581 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated G (20/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (76/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £1741, comprising £1510 for heating, £158 for hot water, and £73 for lighting. The property produces 6.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
