Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in CANNOCK, WS11 1QE. The property offers 73.8m² (794 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (34/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (56/100). The gas central heating system has average efficiency, indicating a boiler that may be 10-15 years old. While functional, upgrading to a modern A-rated condensing boiler could improve efficiency by 15-25%. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The roof space has been converted to living space, with insulation between the rafters. 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 £1531, comprising £1192 for heating, £240 for hot water, and £99 for lighting. The property produces 11.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
