Why Does This Property Have a G Rating?

This detached house is located in SLOUGH, SL2 3LD. The property offers 330m² (3552 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 11 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated G (14/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (70/100). The gas central heating system has average efficiency, indicating a boiler that may be 10-15 years old. While functional, upgrading to a modern A-rated condensing boiler could improve efficiency by 15-25%. The solid walls lack insulation. Solid wall insulation (external or internal) typically costs £8,000-£14,000 but can reduce heat loss by up to 35% and improve your EPC rating by 1-2 bands. The pitched roof lacks adequate insulation. Topping up loft insulation to 270mm (the recommended depth) typically costs £300-£500 and could save £150-£250 annually, with the investment often paying for itself within 2-3 years. Estimated annual energy costs are £6867, comprising £6369 for heating, £300 for hot water, and £198 for lighting. The property produces 33.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
