Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This detached house is located in DRIFFIELD, YO25 4BA. The property offers 211m² (2271 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (16/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a F rating (27/100). 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 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 £5265, comprising £4779 for heating, £328 for hot water, and £158 for lighting. The property produces 17.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
