Energy performance certificate (EPC)

This section shows the energy performance for features of this property. The assessment does not consider the condition of a feature and how well it is working.

Each feature is assessed as one of the following:

very good (most efficient)
good
average
poor
very poor (least efficient)

When the description says “assumed”, it means that the feature could not be inspected and an assumption has been made based on the property’s age and type.

Feature	Description	Rating
Wall	Solid brick, as built, no insulation (assumed)	Very poor
Roof	Pitched, 200 mm loft insulation	Good
Window	Mostly double glazing	Good
Main heating	Boiler and radiators, mains gas	Good
Main heating control	Programmer, room thermostat and TRVs	Good
Hot water	From main system	Good
Lighting	Low energy lighting in all fixed outlets	Very good
Floor	Suspended, no insulation (assumed)	N/A
Secondary heating	None	N/A

Primary energy use

The primary energy use for this property per year is 199 kilowatt hours per square metre (kWh/m2).

What is primary energy use?

Primary energy use is a measure of the energy required for lighting, heating and hot water in a property. The calculation includes:

the efficiency of the property’s heating system
power station efficiency for electricity
the energy used to produce the fuel and deliver it to the property

Environmental impact of this property

This property’s current environmental impact rating is D. It has the potential to be B.

Properties are rated in a scale from A to G based on how much carbon dioxide (CO2) they produce.

Properties with an A rating produce less CO2 than G rated properties.

An average household produces: 6 tonnes of CO2
This property produces: 3.9 tonnes of CO2
This property’s potential production: 1.4 tonnes of CO2

By making the recommended changes, you could reduce this property’s CO2 emissions by 2.5 tonnes per year. This will help to protect the environment.

Environmental impact ratings are based on assumptions about average occupancy and energy use. They may not reflect how energy is consumed by the people living at the property.

Improve this property’s energy performance

By following our step by step recommendations you could reduce this property’s energy use and potentially save money.

Carrying out these changes in order will improve the property’s energy rating and score from D (67) to B (86).

Do I need to follow these steps in order?

Yes. Each step builds on the one before it so you can save the most energy.

For example, it’s more energy efficient to insulate your home before you buy a new boiler. A well insulated home will lose less heat so you do not have to run your boiler as often.

Potential energy rating

Step 1: Internal or external wall insulation

Typical installation cost: £4,000 - £14,000
Typical yearly saving: £202
Potential rating after completing step 1

Step 2: Floor insulation (suspended floor)

Typical installation cost: £800 - £1,200
Typical yearly saving: £46
Potential rating after completing steps 1 and 2

Step 3: Solar water heating

Typical installation cost: £4,000 - £6,000
Typical yearly saving: £31
Potential rating after completing steps 1 to 3

Step 4: Solar photovoltaic panels, 2.5 kWp

Typical installation cost: £5,000 - £8,000
Typical yearly saving: £310
Potential rating after completing steps 1 to 4

Paying for energy improvements

You might be able to get a grant from the Boiler Upgrade Scheme. This will help you buy a more efficient, low carbon heating system for this property.

Estimated energy use and potential savings

Based on average energy costs when this EPC was created:

Estimated yearly energy cost for this property: £845
Potential saving if you complete every step in order: £280

The estimated cost shows how much the average household would spend in this property for heating, lighting and hot water. It is not based on how energy is used by the people living at the property.

Heating use in this property

Heating a property usually makes up the majority of energy costs.

Estimated energy used to heat this property
Type of heating	Estimated energy used
Space heating	12966 kWh per year
Water heating	2106 kWh per year

Potential energy savings by installing insulation
Type of insulation	Amount of energy saved
Loft insulation	321 kWh per year
Solid wall insulation	4725 kWh per year

Contacting the assessor and accreditation scheme

This EPC was created by a qualified energy assessor.

If you are unhappy about your property’s energy assessment or certificate, you can complain to the assessor directly.

If you are still unhappy after contacting the assessor, you should contact the assessor’s accreditation scheme.

Accreditation schemes are appointed by the government to ensure that assessors are qualified to carry out EPC assessments.

Assessment details

Assessor’s declaration: No related party
Date of assessment: 24 January 2019
Date of certificate: 24 January 2019
Type of assessment: Show information about the RdSAP

RdSAP (Reduced data Standard Assessment Procedure) is a method used to assess and compare the energy and environmental performance of properties in the UK. It uses a site visit and survey of the property to calculate energy performance.

This type of assessment can be carried out on properties built before 1 April 2008 in England and Wales, and 30 September 2008 in Northern Ireland. It can also be used for newer properties, as long as they have a previous SAP assessment, which uses detailed information about the property’s construction to calculate energy performance.
