Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced flat is located in LEYTONSTONE, E11 1DE. The property offers 62m² (667 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (37/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100). The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. 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 £1941, comprising £1376 for heating, £492 for hot water, and £73 for lighting. The property produces 4.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
