About This E-Rated Property

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, E2 7DP. The property offers 59mยฒ (635 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. The property has an EPC rating of E (46/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (79/100). The property uses electric storage heaters, which charge overnight on cheaper electricity tariffs. While having low installation costs, running costs are typically higher than gas central heating. A heat pump could reduce electricity use by 60-70%. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs ยฃ8,000-ยฃ14,000 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 ยฃ1074, comprising ยฃ853 for heating, ยฃ165 for hot water, and ยฃ56 for lighting. The property produces 5.8 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
