When thinking about energy efficient home improvements insulation often comes to mind. While the focus on insulation is understandable, it's important to remember that this is only one part of the puzzle. With retrofit, the devil is in the detail. Airtightness, cold bridges and the detailing make a huge difference to how well a retrofit performs.

Back to school - new Carbon Co-op training programme 2017/18 launched!
We've spent a lot of time recently thinking about how we can support you to improve the fabric of your homes and replicate the example of householders who have already made large scale reductions in their home energy use.
About Carbon Co-op
We believe the process of improving our homes to 2050 standards will be quicker, easier and cheaper if we work together, teaming up with friends and neighbours to share experience, knowledge and reduce costs through bulk purchase.
Established in 2008 and incorporated in 2011, we are a group of Greater Manchester residents who’ve begun to carry out changes in our own houses and communities, we've teamed up with housing specialists to look at what more we can do where we live.
