Why Does This Property Have a F Rating?
This detached house is located in NEWQUAY, TR8 5QA. The property offers 181m² (1948 sq ft) of generously-sized living space with 9 habitable rooms. It is a period property with Victorian or earlier origins. Currently rated F (36/100) for energy efficiency, this property would benefit significantly from energy improvements. With recommended improvements, it could achieve a C rating (70/100). 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. Double glazing is installed throughout the property, providing good thermal and acoustic insulation. Estimated annual energy costs are £2214, comprising £1738 for heating, £360 for hot water, and £116 for lighting. The property produces 6.0 tonnes of CO2 per year, which is above average for a UK home.
