SUMMARY:Sarah and Charlie - Green Open Homes 2018
DESCRIPTION:Sarah and Charlie are opening their home as a part of Carbon Co-op’s Green Open Homes Weekend\, 29th and 30th September 2018.\n \nThis Victorian semi has been retrofitted to deomstrate the energy saving potential of simple\, effective improvements. \n\nSarah and Charlie have reduced the carbon emissions of this house by 85% by installing insulation to walls\, floors and roof\, triple glazing and draught proofing the sash windows and fitting a heating system that combines solar thermal with a log burning biomass boiler. Sustainable materials have been a priority\, including the most durable and eventually recyclable kitchen they could design. More info here: http://superhome.red.coop\n\nEnergy efficiency measures installed:\n\ndraught proofing\nexternal wall insulation\, internal wall insulation\, floor insulation\nnew triple glazed / draught proofed sashes / secondary glazing\nlow energy lighting systems and electrical appliances\nrenewable heating – biomass log burner / solar thermal\nsustainable building materials used\n\n \nSarah and Charlie think you should visit their home because:We have lots of practical suggestions for insulating an old property\, with measures installed over the last decade. We want to encourage as many visitors as possible!\nEnergy saving:Old Superhome SAP assessment 81%\nTours\n\nSaturday 29th September tours at 11 am and 3 pm\nSunday 30th September tour at 2 pm.\n\n \nAccessibility and travel\n\nNearest public transport: 85 or 86 bus\, Chorlton Tram\nParking on street\nAccessibility issues: 3 steps to front door\, stairs inside house but will help you get around as much as possible\n\n\nMany thanks to Ecology Building Society for supporting this event.

She’d lived in the house 10 years before making major changes in 2013. During the 5 years before\, She had had double glazing and composite front and back doors installed. The cavity wall in the 1970s bathroom extension had also been done then. It was looking over the Eco house at Miles Platting and then visiting SuperHome owner Eric Fewster (see Hersey St\, Salford) that made her determined get her house revamped. The work was carried out by Eric (www.ColdProof.co.uk) and Bob Hope of Expert Home Extensions (www.experthomeextensions.co.uk).\nSee more here: www.coldproof.co.uk\n \nEnergy efficiency measures installed:\n\nCondensing boiler\nDouble Glazing\nDraught-proofing\nFloor Insulation\nInternal Wall Insulation\nLoft Insulation\nLow Energy Lighting\nMechanical Ventilation Heat Recovery\nWater Saving Devices\n\n \nRuth thinks you should visit her home because:\nThis is a small\, terraced property i.e. you don’t have to have a big place to make improvements!ToursSaturday 29th September\, 10am – 4pm – tours on the hour  (except 1pm)\nAccessibility and travel\n\nNearest public transport: Mauldeth Road rail station\, buses 25\, 50\, 178\, 179\nParking: Not brilliant but use Co-op carpark! \nAccessibility: Steep\, narrow stairs and step at front door\n\n\n\nMany thanks to Ecology Building Society for supporting this event.

SUMMARY:Cordata Housing Co-operative - Green Open Homes 2018
DESCRIPTION:Cordata Housing Co-operative are opening their home as a part of Carbon Co-op’s Green Open Homes Weekend\, 29th and 30th September 2018.\nThe house is unique in that it is occupied by a registered co-operative group of 6 people\, the purchase and refurbishment funded with a mortgage from Ecology Building Society\, proving the viability of developing low energy house refurbishments for groups of people on a rental basis.\nThe historic building fabric was treated sensitively when designing the refurbishment programme\, and the needs of the housing co-op and its members were taken into account.\nhttp://withington.coopliving.net/\nEnergy efficiency measures installed:\n\nComplete envelope insulation: double thickness roof\, underfloor\, external and internal walls\,\nDouble glazed sashes + encapsulated original stained glass\nLED lights + Eco washing machine and drying cabinet\nHigh spec heating – Separate floor-by-floor system\nSolar hot water tank heating\nSolar PV 2.4Kw\n3000 litre rainwater tank for toilet flushing + low flow rate taps\nRecycled wood fibre external insulation\nLeased by a co-operative committed to low waste and shared resources\n\nCordata think you should visit their home because:We believe we make a larger overall energy saving\, because 6 people live there. We also made use of almost every energy saving method available at the time of the refurbishment\, whilst preserving the character of the house. We think we are one of only a few ( or possibly the only) multiple occupancy houses in the country that have had a complete eco refurbishment from the ground up.Energy saving:\nAbout 40-50% less than an equivalent houseToursSaturday 29th September\, 10am – 4pm – tours on the hour  Please book!\nAccessibility and travel\n\nNearest public transport: buses to Palatine Road\, Burton Road tram\nParking on street: free at weekends\nAccessibility issues: steps at front and rear\n\nMany thanks to Ecology Building Society for supporting this event.
