Solar panels and underfloor heating: Inside a very British eco home
An air source heating system absorbs heat from the outside air to heat both the house and hot water.
An eco house in England’s leafy Yorkshire dales has been built to provide “contemporary living at its best.”
The five-bedroom, detached home is impressive inside and out. A steel staircase greets you in the atrium, leading to a modern interior with porcelain floors and glass walls. Outside is a walled garden with plenty of room to grow vegetables and decorate the area with plants.
Valued between £740,000 - £780,000 (€822,000 - €866,000) on Rightmove, the unique selling point of the property is its energy efficiency rating. The EPC scale runs from A-G, with G indicating low energy efficiency and higher running costs, and A indicating that a house is very energy efficient.
The test accounts for several factors, including estimates of the energy your property potentially uses, carbon dioxide emissions and fuel costs.
The Yorkshire eco home ranks as B, which makes it a great investment considering most older homes are around a grade D.
So what makes it so eco-friendly? An air source heating system absorbs heat from the outside air to heat both the house and hot water. The combination of underfloor heating and radiators currently means that future owners will benefit from reduced bills, saving approximately £880 per year.
A bank of solar panels also provides the home with renewable energy all year round, meaning owners could save around £1,300 a year on electricity costs.
"This outstanding and stylish eco house is also very cost-effective to run," says estate agent Fine & Country, describing the sale as a “once in a lifetime opportunity.”
The property comes with an internal garage, which hopefully will be home to any number of electric cars once it’s under ownership...
