Did you know mortar really matters in #heritage #retrofit? Our industry-based @LivUni PhD researcher Luke Dickens has a chapter explaining his experiments with mortar in repairing historic stone buildings in a new book Towards a Carbon Neutral Future. https://t.co/okU08hEWBS

#Passivhaus #selfbuild project in a #London #conservationarea

"This led to some interesting problem solving, like hiding the MVHR in the chimney & utilising a dual-faced design to sit in line with the street’s aesthetic."

So gratifying to see the result of our first @AECBnet Retrofit Level 2 certified project. It was wonderful working with @ProgInPrac and EcoVert Solutions to apply a #Passivhaus approach and turn this beautiful 1901 heritage property into a comfortable home for the future.

[Progress In Practice @ProgInPrac]

Fabulous to work on the deep #retrofit of this beautiful Edwardian home. Was quite the challenge, as I'm sure @Ecospheric & Ecovert Solutions would agree, but thrilled with the result. Especially as it's achieved @AECBnet Retrofit Level 2 certification;

It's a little chilly outside today... and that might have you thinking of how to save some of the energy (and money) you're using to heat your home. We offered some tips on saving money and optimising energy efficiency in this @HouzzUK article https://t.co/eOKILuLRgw

Reposting this @Ribaj article about the changes for home #retrofit requirements under #PAS2035, which features our #passivhaus project in #Manchester. The focus shifts to a whole house approach rather than individual measures and a medium-term retrofit plan.

[RIBAJ @RIBAJ]

Changes to PAS 2035/2030:2023 require a medium-term improvement strategy for every home undergoing retrofit, an airtightness strategy and site visits by Retrofit Co-ordinators
