  1. These kind of articles about the ways you can try and contain the fallout of #energyprices are well intentioned…and there is some good advice here.

    But please do not take the photo of the guy insulating his own loft as instructional. As someone deeply involved in loft insulation please always wear a fitted mask, gloves and old clothes/boilersuit that covers the arms.

  24. House hunting is no fun when you work in #retrofit…

    Saw a lovely home today in the perfect location with an EPC ‘B’ (86) score. It had solar pv and high performance double glazing. The decor looked quite safely neutral…

    But then I saw it had artex on the ceiling…and they had drilled spotlights into it.

    And that’s when my heart sank.

  27. 🌐🤡 Ah, yes, the noble quest to retro-fit your shiny, cutting-edge #v6 site with a clunky #v4 front end, because clearly, progress means dragging the past along like an unwanted party guest. 🎉📡 I mean, why let the future be easy when you can add unnecessary steps and blame the world for not upgrading fast enough? 💡🔧

  30. O centro de SP precisa de retrofit?

    Revitalizar prédios antigos é demanda antiga de movimentos por moradia. Mas o atual programa entregou só 7% à faixa mais pobre e virou política de valorização privada. Objetivo não deveria ser apenas “reformar”, mas garantir permanência de quem vive e trabalha na região

    But have ever considered the science behind it?

    Also, did you know 78% of UK housing stock was built pre 1980.
