 Course Description

Domestic Retrofit Advice (3 hr Taster)
About this short course

Retrofit advisors give independent guidance to homeowners and residents, helping them understand retrofit and which options are available for their homes. They often work alongside retrofit coordinators, providing an important link between the people working on a property and those living in it.

Key Units

Retrofit advisors are among the first to be engaged when new work begins. They will establish the project’s needs and budget, and work with the retrofit coordinator to determine intended outcomes. Many remain involved in resident engagement throughout the assessment, design and planning stages of an installation. This job is mainly about communication, keeping residents engaged and minimising disruption. In short, they are the eyes and ears on the ground.

The role of Retrofit in home energy consumption. Retrofit principles. The retrofit industry and the role of advisors. Understanding the principles of retrofit advice.
