Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in ORMSKIRK, L39 4TR. The property offers 65m² (700 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (28/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (86/100). The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £1968, comprising £1452 for heating, £446 for hot water, and £70 for lighting. The property produces 5.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home. The property last sold in February 2022 for £115,000.
