The UK has some of the least energy efficient homes in Europe, but more people are taking the decision to improve, or retrofit, their homes for increased comfort, better health, lower carbon emissions and flong term financial savings.
Retrofit of houses can be complex but with a carefully designed scheme, good contractors and quality controls the end result can be transformative for those that live in the retrofitted home. For most people a change to a heat pump and a few ‘low hanging fruit’ improvements will be best – but for some the full deep retrofit covering insulation, air tightness, ventilation and renewables will work. It will let you use all of the house all of the year with good comfort and fresh air, and with a sensible running cost. It’s not easy and so it’s worth sharing experience. Cambridge Retrofit Hub introduce the key themes of home energy retrofit with an exploration of deep retrofit measures, telling stories of past retrofits and progress with current projects.
