Heating & cooling profile
HotAndCold's model combines the recorded floor area, property type and EPC data, so this 28m² pre-1900 flat has a current EPC rating of E43 and its recorded heating. HotAndCold estimates a space-heating requirement of approximately 2.5–3.0kW. The recorded EPC score sits towards the lower end of the efficiency range. Its modelled space-heating intensity per square metre is moderate.

Energy improvement potential
Recommended improvements for this property
Measures from this home’s official Energy Performance Certificate assessment that could raise its rating and cut running costs, specific to 133A LONG LANE, ORFORD, WARRINGTON, WA2 8QB.
- 150 mm internal or external wall insulationIndicative cost: £4,000 - £14,000
Solid wall insulation involves adding a layer of insulation to either the inside or the outside surface of the external walls, which reduces heat loss and lowers fuel bills. As it is more expensive than cavity wall insulation it is only recommended for walls without a cavity, or where for technical reasons a cavity cannot be filled. Internal insulation, known as dry-lining, is where a layer of insulation is fixed to the inside surface of external walls; this type of insulation is best applied when rooms require redecorating and can be installed by a competent DIY enthusiast. External solid wall insulation is the application of an insulant and a weather-protective finish to the outside of the wall. This may improve the look of the home, particularly where existing brickwork or rendering is poor, and will provide long-lasting weather protection. Further information can be obtained from the National Insulation Association (www.nationalinsulationassociation.org.uk).
- 2Low energy lighting for all fixed outletsIndicative cost: £10
Replacement of traditional light bulbs with energy saving recommended ones will reduce lighting costs over the lifetime of the bulb, and they last up to 12 times longer than ordinary light bulbs. Also consider selecting low energy light fittings when redecorating; contact the Lighting Association for your nearest stockist of Domestic Energy Efficient Lighting Scheme fittings.
