About 1a
1a is a semi-detached house in Blackpool (FY4 3AY). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 40 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (40–123 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 6 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
At 40 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 22 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs).
