The Gables, Dalton Lane

Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This detached bungalow is located in HULL, HU12 0DG. The property offers 196m² (2110 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is a post-war property from the mid-20th century. Currently rated F (36/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (83/100). 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. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. The loft insulation is rated very good, meeting or exceeding the recommended 270mm depth for optimal thermal performance. 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 £2715, comprising £2252 for heating, £287 for hot water, and £176 for lighting. The property produces 16.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
