Get startedFlat 5 is a semi-detached house in Colchester (CO1 2AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 19 m² (around 205 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 19 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 18–35 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.

Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, lighting went from Average to Good and main heating went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). Main heating runs on electricity.
