Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached bungalow is located in LINCOLN, LN6 5TX. The property offers 129m² (1389 sq ft) of spacious living space with 6 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. Currently rated F (35/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (79/100). The property has good loft insulation, though topping up to the recommended 270mm depth could provide additional energy savings. 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 £2593, comprising £2066 for heating, £401 for hot water, and £126 for lighting. The property produces 7.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
