The graph shows this property’s current and potential energy efficiency.
Properties are given a rating from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient).
Properties are also given a score. The higher the rating the lower your fuel bills are likely to be.
The average energy rating and score for a property in England and Wales are D (60).
Breakdown of property’s energy performance
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, 75 mm loft insulation Average
Window Partial double glazing Poor
Main heating Boiler and radiators, mains gas Good
Main heating control Programmer, room thermostat and TRVs Good

Secondary heating Room heaters, mains gas N/A
Primary energy use
The primary energy use for this property per year is 379 kilowatt hours per square metre (kWh/m2).
What is primary energy use?
Environmental impact of this property
One of the biggest contributors to climate change is carbon dioxide (CO2). The energy used for heating, lighting and power in
our homes produces over a quarter of the UK’s CO2 emissions.
An average household produces
6 tonnes of CO2
This property produces
4.4 tonnes of CO2
This property’s potential production
1.2 tonnes of CO2
By making the recommended changes, you could reduce this property’s CO2 emissions by 3.2 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.
