Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached house is located in NARBERTH, SA67 8RY. The property offers 147.94m² (1592 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (36/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a E rating (50/100). The gas central heating system has good efficiency, indicating a relatively modern, well-maintained boiler. The flat roof has poor insulation. Flat roof insulation is more complex but essential for preventing heat loss and condensation issues, typically costing £1,000-£3,000 depending on access and method. 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 £1749, comprising £1355 for heating, £312 for hot water, and £82 for lighting. The property produces 9.2 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
