Heating & cooling profile
HotAndCold's model combines the recorded floor area, property type and EPC data, so this 65m² flat has a current EPC rating of D62 and mains-gas heating. HotAndCold estimates a space-heating requirement of approximately 5.5–7.0kW. Its current energy rating indicates moderate energy efficiency. Its modelled space-heating intensity per square metre is moderate.

Measures from this home’s official Energy Performance Certificate assessment that could raise its rating and cut running costs, specific to FLAT A, 326 WIGAN ROAD, STANDISH, WIGAN, WN6 0AD.
- 1Upgrade heating controlsIndicative cost: £350 - £450
A room thermostat will increase the efficiency of the heating system by enabling the boiler to switch off when no heat is required; this will reduce the amount of energy used and lower fuel bills. Thermostatic radiator valves should also be installed, to allow the temperature of each room to be controlled to suit individual needs, adding to comfort and reducing heating bills provided internal doors are kept closed. For example, they can be set to be warmer in the living room and bathroom than in the bedrooms. Ask a competent heating engineer to install thermostatic radiator valves and a fully pumped system with the pump and the boiler turned off by the room thermostat. Thermostatic radiator valves should be fitted to every radiator except for the radiator in the same room as the room thermostat. Remember the room thermostat is needed as well as the thermostatic radiator valves, to enable the boiler to switch off when no heat is required. It is best to obtain advice from a qualified heating engineer.
- 2Floor insulation (suspended floor)Indicative cost: £800 - £1,200
Insulation of a floor will significantly reduce heat loss; this will improve levels of comfort, reduce energy use and lower fuel bills. Suspended floors can often be insulated from below. . Further information about floor insulation is available from many sources including www.energysavingtrust.org.uk/northernireland/Insulation/Floor-insulation.
