About 29a
29a is a semi-detached house in Birmingham (B17 8NN). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1009 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Very Good to Average.
