Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?
This detached house is located in NORTHAMPTON, NN6 8DW. The property offers 259.63m² (2795 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 7 habitable rooms. It is a characterful interwar or early 20th century home. Currently rated F (35/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (61/100). 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. The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £3104, comprising £2655 for heating, £297 for hot water, and £152 for lighting. The property produces 15.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
