Just seen this remarkable paper that was published at the start of Jan. It contains a finding of great interest to my fellow energy geeks: than demand reduction from energy efficiency doesn't last. /1 cam.ac.uk/research/news/…

Cold rooms in a new build? This image from a new extension in Hertfordshire shows the advantages of a thermal imaging survey. The blue and green colours on the wall show where cold air is getting in behind the plasterwork. #thermalimaging #newbuild #warmhome #valueformoney

Another survey, another poorly insulated ceiling. Care needs to be taken - there are only 4" rafters here and limited space to fit insulation. All too often eaves get blocked with mineral wool and condensation forms in the loft space. #thermalsurvey redfoxthermal.com

Interesting article in the guardian. I couldn't help thinking about how thermal imaging surveys, which aren't mentioned here, are a brilliant means by which heat losses can be identified. 1st step:understand your home. #insulation #thermalimaging theguardian.com/money/2023/feb…

Very interesting article in the Times. EPCs only every take a broad estimate of building thermal performance. Using thenm to form the basis of climate policy would seem a flawed approach. thetimes.co.uk/article/why-mi…

Further good news in helping the people of Hull understand the thermal performance of their home. Further south, we're applying our expertise at Red Fox. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… Redfoxthermal.com #thermalimaging #heatloss #thermalsurvey

theguardian.com/business/2023/… An interesting canvas of opinions on heat pumps. Important points on making sure heat building heat loss is properly understood during the sizing process.

After an unseasonably warm Sep/Oct, we are now gearing up for our thermography season. With a thermal imaging survey undertaken by Red Fox, you can make use of our expert Category-2 trained thermographers, to bring the very best insights into home heat loss. #thermalimaging 📹

To keep your home warm the power (Joules of heat per second) required constantly changes and is dependent on outside temperature. A home requires half the power when it's 9°C out than when it's -3°C out. Good heating systems (boiler or heat pump) change the temp going to rads in

I despair. There's a huge gulf between what the government needs to commit to, and what is required to meet net0. Current plan would "only support 20,000 HPs, just 3% of the 600,000 ambition for 2028"! We must try harder. #heatpump #NetZero bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…

Trying to cycle with the kids to school through #hitchin but two tunnels with narrow footpaths and limited cycling infrastructure, makes a tricky ride (lots of walking!). North Herts Council with the #highover development, is something going to be done? Cycling UK

Timely NatInfraCommission report shows UK energy infrastructure is desperately underfunded. Clean electric heat could provide warm homes, slash emissions, lower bills, ensure energy security & save people *£1,000 a year* in the process - what's Sunak afraid of? theguardian.com/business/2023/…

Red Fox Thermography now offering full house #heatloss surveys by an accredited ABBE Level 3 heat loss surveyor (compliant with BS EN 12831). Ideal to understand whether your heating system is sufficiently sized, and what changes might be required for a #heatpump #herts 🏠📋😀

If you are interested in heat pumps then please watch the few videos John Cantor has made. He is venerated by engineers such as Steve Webster @kenbone44 Renewable Heat (Barry Sharp) who have been installing such equipment for many years. youtu.be/3guSwkNheao?fe…

This year I put my own retrofit advice to the test — re-insulating our 1920s solid-wall bedroom with mineral wool + PIR boards. The result: warmer surfaces, no draughts, heat-pump ready! redfoxthermal.com/putting-theory… #Retrofit #Thermography #EnergyEfficiency
