Tenant's Guide to Retrofitting

Social housing providers are facing a dilemma around extensive retrofitting of existing stock to bring them up to modern standards of energy efficiency, as part of the push towards carbon neutrality by 2050.

As well as the cost implications of retrofitting, housing associations and local authorities are also noticing additional challenges, including the provision of up-to-date information and advice for tenants once the work has been carried out.  After all, fitting heat pumps will only have the desired impact if tenants are aware of how to effectively operate their new energy efficient heating system.

With our Tenant’s Guides to Retrofitting, social housing providers can effortlessly roll out this information in an accessible format, containing all of the pertinent details and advice relating to the retrofitting works, as well as other useful tips for tenants looking to reduce their home’s carbon footprint.
