How Thermal Bridging Affects Building Performance
As the UK continues to focus on energy efficiency and reducing carbon emissions, improving the performance of existing buildings has become a priority. One of the most critical, yet often overlooked, factors influencing building performance is thermal bridging. Understanding what thermal bridging is, how it affects energy efficiency, and how to mitigate it is essential […]
Avoiding Common Pitfalls in Retrofit Coordination
As the UK continues its journey toward achieving net-zero carbon emissions, the demand for high-quality retrofit projects has never been greater. Homes across the country are being upgraded with energy-efficient measures to improve performance, reduce bills, and lower carbon footprints. But with opportunity comes complexity. Retrofitting is not as simple as installing insulation or upgrading […]
How to Ensure Your Retrofit Project Meets PAS Standards
As the UK pushes toward net-zero carbon targets, retrofitting existing buildings has become a crucial part of the journey. To ensure retrofit projects deliver measurable energy savings, maintain quality, and protect building integrity, the Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) framework provides a clear set of standards for compliance. In 2023, updates to PAS2030 and PAS2035 refined […]
