At 24 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (24–97 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 41 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Very Poor.
