About This Property
This detached house is located in Warminster , BA12 7NP. The property offers 262m² (2820 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 8 habitable rooms. It is built during the 1980s construction period. With an EPC rating of D (66/100), this property is around the UK average for energy efficiency. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a B rating (85/100). 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 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 £3357, comprising £2929 for heating, £262 for hot water, and £166 for lighting. The property produces 9.7 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is high for a UK home.
