About This Property
This flat is located in NORTHAMPTON, NN1 5AT. The property offers 33m² (355 sq ft) of compact living space. The property holds an EPC rating of C (72/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. This property benefits from a air source heat pump system, which can deliver 3-4 units of heat for every unit of electricity used. Heat pumps are eligible for the £7,500 Boiler Upgrade Scheme grant, making them increasingly popular for UK homes seeking to reduce carbon emissions. 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 £1004, comprising £465 for heating, £471 for hot water, and £68 for lighting. The property produces 1.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is very low for a UK home.
