The Ultimate Warm Homes Local Grant Installation? Six Measures on One House!

Cavity wall insulation with the old fill extracted, external wall insulation, loft insulation, solar PV, a battery and ventilation. Six measures on one large house in Baldock, all recommended by the retrofit assessor and all approved, installed by Pyramid Eco in partnership with North Herts Council. Michael from Pyramid Eco walks through what went in and why, why the property needed three different types of insulation to get the same thermal performance across the whole house, and what it took to install all of it over about six weeks through the winter with the resident living there the whole time. He also talks about how the job was programmed stage by stage to keep disruption down, and why the resident's attitude made more difference to how smoothly it went than anything else. On a sunny day, they're now running almost entirely on their own solar and battery.
