Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?
This terraced flat is located in BRISTOL, BS6 5PA. The property offers 38m² (409 sq ft) of compact living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (26/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (77/100). 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, 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 £1165, comprising £977 for heating, £143 for hot water, and £45 for lighting. The property produces 3.9 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
