Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This terraced house is located in TRURO, TR2 4PW. The property offers 468m² (5038 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 14 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (30/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (73/100). 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 property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. Single glazing is a significant source of heat loss, accounting for up to 25% of a home's heat escaping through windows. Upgrading to double glazing typically costs £400-£600 per window but improves thermal comfort and can reduce noise by up to 30dB. Estimated annual energy costs are £14594, comprising £13662 for heating, £476 for hot water, and £456 for lighting. The property produces 47.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
