The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
