Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This terraced flat is located in SOUTHAMPTON, SO16 3JE. The property offers 67m² (721 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated G (17/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (78/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1939, comprising £1425 for heating, £435 for hot water, and £79 for lighting. The property produces 6.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
