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 26A BENTINCK ROAD, ALTRINCHAM, WA14 2BP.
- 1Solar photovoltaic panels, 2.5 kWpIndicative cost: £3,500 - £5,500
A solar PV system is one which converts light directly into electricity via panels placed on the roof with no waste and no emissions. This electricity is used throughout the home in the same way as the electricity purchased from an energy supplier. The British Photovoltaic Association has up-to-date information on local installers who are qualified electricians. It is best to obtain advice from a qualified electrician. Ask the electrician to explain the options.
- 2Time and temperature zone controlIndicative cost: £350 - £450
The heating system controls should be improved so that both the temperature and time of heating can be set differently in separate areas of your house; this will reduce the amount of energy used and lower fuel bills. For example, it is possible to have cooler temperatures in the bedrooms than in the living room provided internal doors are kept closed, and to have a longer heating period for the living room. It is best to obtain advice from a qualified heating engineer.
- 3Floor insulation (solid floor)Indicative cost: £4,000 - £6,000
Insulation of a floor will significantly reduce heat loss; this will improve levels of comfort, reduce energy use and lower fuel bills. Further information about floor insulation is available from many sources including www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/northernireland/Insulation/Floor-insulation.
