About Moss Cottage
Moss Cottage is a detached house in Sheffield (S17 3BD). It has a recorded floor area of 223 m² (around 2400 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (March 2013); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.
