Home Retrofit
Retrofitting is the process of making improvements to your home, so it becomes more energy efficient.
Why Retrofit?
There are three main reasons to have your home retrofitted:
- Warmer homes, lower bills! - the more energy efficient your home is, the less energy it needs to stay warm in winter and cool in summer, and the less you need to pay for your bills.
- Healthier homes – staying warm is important for your health. Properly retrofitted homes also have better ventilation, which means less damp and mould which can help people with allergies and breathing problems.
- Tackling the Climate emergency - in 2019, the council declared a climate emergency, confirming its commitment to battling climate change by setting a target for Stevenage to be “net-zero” by 2030.
“I have noticed a difference in my energy bills. The overall experience has been really, really good. I’m really, really happy.”
