How energy efficient is your home?

Good news. Sellers will have to include an energy efficiency rating in their 'sellers pack' from 2007. Houses will be rated from A-G, just like our washing machines, fridges etc. It will also include how much the energy bills cost, and advice on how to reduce them. Not sure what my house rating would be - but i think it would be quite good, as we do have insulation, a new - efficient boiler, some double glazing and the house faces south, which helps keep it warm in the winter. We can all do our bit to help slow down global warming. Perhaps it will also show how inefficient some of these big, expensive properties are, and help the market for smaller, more efficient properties.
