About this event
In October, the government will start to invest £2 billion into domestic retrofit in just six months – the first public investment of note into retrofit in years and the start of a national retrofit project that will last thirty years. The appropriateness of the materials, products and technologies deployed will largely determine the success or failure of this bold initiative. From assessment software to roof, floor and wall insulation, to ventilation systems, smart thermostats and building monitoring systems, the right choices are essential to success.
Use the wrong solution on the wrong property at the wrong time and retrofit can go badly wrong. Get retrofit right and the benefits are huge.
In this webinar, we examine what existing products and technologies get the thumbs up from leading retrofit architects. We also examine what pieces of the retrofit jigsaw are still needed.
The panel debate will be followed by a live Q&A session, where you can pose your questions to our experts.
