    Summary of the energy performance related features of this homeThis table sets out the results of the survey which lists the current energy-related features of this home. Each elementis assessed by the national calculation methodology; 1 star = very poor (least efficient), 2 stars = poor, 3 stars =average, 4 stars = good and 5 stars = very good (most efficient). The assessment does not take into consideration thecondition of an element and how well it is working. Assumed means that the insulation could not be inspected and anassumption has been made in the methodology, based on age and type of construction.

    Element Description Energy Efficiency Environmental

    Walls Timber frame, as built, insulated (assumed)

    Roof Pitched, 250 mm loft insulation

    Floor Solid, insulated (assumed)

    Windows Fully double glazed

    Main heating Boiler and radiators, mains gas

    Main heating controls Programmer, room thermostat and TRVs

    Secondary heating None

    Hot water From main system

    Lighting Low energy lighting in 71% of fixed outlets

    The energy efficiency rating of your homeYour Energy Efficiency Rating is calculated using the standard UK methodology, RdSAP. This calculates energy usedfor heating, hot water, lighting and ventilation and then applies fuel costs to that energy use to give an overall ratingfor your home. The rating is given on a scale of 1 to 100. Other than the cost of fuel for electrical appliances and forcooking, a building with a rating of 100 would cost almost nothing to run.

    As we all use our homes in different ways, the energy rating is calculated using standard occupancy assumptionswhich may be different from the way you use it. The rating also uses national weather information to allow comparisonbetween buildings in different parts of Scotland. However, to make information more relevant to your home, localweather data is used to calculate your energy use, CO2 emissions, running costs and the savings possible from makingimprovements.

    The impact of your home on the environmentOne of the biggest contributors to global warming is carbon dioxide. The energy we use for heating, lighting and powerin our homes produces over a quarter of the UKs carbon dioxide emissions. Different fuels produce different amountsof carbon dioxide for every kilowatt hour (kWh) of energy used. The Environmental Impact Rating of your home iscalculated by applying these 'carbon factors' for the fuels you use to your overall energy use.

    The calculated emissions for your home are 27 kg CO2/m/yr.

    The average Scottish household produces about 6 tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. Based on this assessment,heating and lighting this home currently produces approximately 2.3 tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. Adoptingrecommendations in this report can reduce emissions and protect the environment. If you were to install all of theserecommendations this could reduce emissions by 1.1 tonnes per year. You could reduce emissions even more byswitching to renewable energy sources.

    Potential future savings

    These figures show how much the average household would spend in this property for heating, lighting and hot water.This excludes energy use for running appliances such as TVs, computers and cookers, and the benefits of anyelectricity generated by this home (for example, from photovoltaic panels). The potential savings in energy costs showthe effect of undertaking all of the recommended measures listed below.

    Recommendations for improvementThe measures below will improve the energy and environmental performance of this dwelling. The performanceratings after improvements listed below are cumulative; that is, they assume the improvements have been installed inthe order that they appear in the table. Further information about the recommended measures and other simpleactions to take today to save money is available from the Home Energy Scotland hotline which can be contacted on0808 808 2282. Before carrying out work, make sure that the appropriate permissions are obtained, where necessary.This may include permission from a landlord (if you are a tenant) or the need to get a Building Warrant for certaintypes of work.
