Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This detached flat is located in Tenby, SA70 7QE. The property offers 103m² (1109 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated G (16/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (58/100). 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 walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. Estimated annual energy costs are £4602, comprising £3030 for heating, £1366 for hot water, and £206 for lighting. The property produces 12.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
