Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?
This semi-detached maisonette is located in Bournemouth, BH8 8EH. The property offers 128m² (1378 sq ft) of spacious living space with 5 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (1/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (53/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £7068, comprising £6143 for heating, £721 for hot water, and £204 for lighting. The property produces 15.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
