Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This semi-detached house is located in ASHBOURNE, DE6 2DA. The property offers 57.6m² (620 sq ft) of modest-sized living space with 4 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated G (18/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a F rating (32/100). 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. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £932, comprising £467 for heating, £428 for hot water, and £37 for lighting. The property produces 5.5 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is moderate for a UK home.
