About Flat 5
Flat 5 is a detached house in Diss (IP22 4LE). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 422 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. At 39 m² this is the 5th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–196 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (52 versus a best of 74). The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
