Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?

This semi-detached maisonette is located in FAREHAM, PO16 8TS. The property offers 89m² (958 sq ft) of good-sized living space with 2 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. Currently rated F (26/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a D rating (60/100). The walls feature cavity wall insulation for improved thermal efficiency. 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 £1959, comprising £1536 for heating, £318 for hot water, and £105 for lighting. The property produces 6.3 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home. IMPORTANT FOR LANDLORDS: With an EPC rating of F, this property does not meet the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). Since April 2020, landlords cannot legally let properties rated F or G without registering a valid exemption. Penalties for non-compliance can reach up to £30,000. Immediate improvements are required to bring the property to at least an E rating.
