George Clarke, Mitsubishi Electric Ecodan heat pump ambassador, adopted a fabric first approach for his home. Clarke explained “it means the air-source heat pump can work even more efficiently. It’s brilliant for hot water, but for heating, I hardly need to use it at all because I’ve done a fabric-first approach.” At the SEA, we support a fabric first delivery, as part of a whole building approach. Not only do well optimised, comprehensively insulated, draught proofed, and air-tight properties have vastly reduced energy demands, but they will serve as comfortable, warm and healthy indoor living and working environment.

Fascinating to hear from Alison Kidd, Experimental Psychologist at The Prospectory, in our coffee morning session today. Alison kindly presented the findings from her recent study report exploring the main factors which affect individuals’ thermal comfort in their everyday lives at home. The study collected thermal warmth samples on 30 winter days from 77 participants in 61 UK homes heated either by heat pumps, infrared panels or conventional central heating.

Landlords, energy efficiency is becoming increasingly important both for tenants and to comply with energy efficiency standards. The new Government’s manifesto states they will ensure homes in the private rented sector meet minimum energy efficiency standards by 2030, saving renters hundreds of pounds per year. Our member, Energy Saving Trust, has created a useful guide explaining how landlords can make their properties more energy efficient: https://lnkd.in/eCtCiVJ9 #SaveEnergy #EnergyEfficiency #Landlords #EPC
