About This E-Rated Property
This detached house is located in WAKEFIELD, WF4 1RD. The property offers 204m² (2196 sq ft) of generously-sized living space. The property has an EPC rating of E (51/100), which is below average but still meets minimum rental requirements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (68/100). 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 £2472, comprising £2151 for heating, £170 for hot water, and £151 for lighting. The property produces 10.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
