About 37c
37c is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Luton (LU1 5DA). It has a recorded floor area of 14 m² (around 151 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (June 2026) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2015. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), 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 14 m² this is the 7th smallest of 58 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 12–105 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 58 units on file.
