About 186a

At 27 m² this is the 8th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in 186a, where floor areas span 12–27 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (63 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (January 2023) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good.
