Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached house is located in CHIPPENHAM, SN15 4LR. The property offers 251.05m² (2702 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (38/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (42/100). Heating is provided by oil-fired central heating. While effective, oil prices can be volatile and the system produces higher carbon emissions than gas or heat pumps. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £4003, comprising £3298 for heating, £314 for hot water, and £391 for lighting. The property produces 19.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
