Heating & cooling profile

HotAndCold's model combines the recorded floor area, property type and EPC data, so this 45m² 1960s flat has a current EPC rating of C70 and mains-gas heating. HotAndCold estimates a space-heating requirement of approximately 3.5–4.5kW. The recorded EPC score is comparatively high for existing housing stock. The estimated heat demand per square metre is around typical levels.

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 64 MAY STREET, GOLBORNE, WARRINGTON, WA3 3TU.

  1. 1
    Floor 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.

  2. 2
    Low 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.

  3. 3
    50 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).
