About This Property

This flat is located in SLOUGH, SL1 2LA. The property offers 67.86m² (730 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 3 habitable rooms. It is a 1990s-era home. The property holds an EPC rating of C (80/100), meeting the government's target standard for energy efficiency. The oil-fired central heating has poor efficiency. Oil boilers are more expensive to run than gas and have higher carbon emissions. Consider switching to a heat pump (eligible for £7,500 BUS grant) for significant long-term savings. The walls feature cavity wall insulation with good efficiency ratings, providing solid thermal performance. 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 £384, comprising £212 for heating, £128 for hot water, and £44 for lighting. The property produces 2.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is low for a UK home.
