Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced flat is located in LONDON, SE11 4NS. The property offers 38m² (409 sq ft) of compact living space with 1 habitable room. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (37/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (60/100). 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 walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £1648, comprising £591 for heating, £1007 for hot water, and £50 for lighting. The property produces 4.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
