Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached flat is located in LONDON, SE3 0PL. The property offers 32m² (344 sq ft) of compact living space with 1 habitable room. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (38/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (80/100). 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 £8,000-£14,000 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 £898, comprising £455 for heating, £388 for hot water, and £55 for lighting. The property produces 4.4 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
