SUMMARY:Principles of Retrofit - May 2018
DESCRIPTION:Understanding heat and moisture in your home \n \nDescription: Confused by talk of U-values and ‘breathability’ in buildings? Keen to understand how you can improve and insulate your home to make it warmer\, whilst avoiding unintended consequences? Want to know enough to avoid being bamboozled\, but don’t want to become a specialist? Then this course is for you. \nFor: Householders planning refurbishment works who would like to develop a better understanding of basic technical principles in energy efficiency and retrofit. \nBenefit: Will help you to decipher some of the language used by professionals\, and better understand the key considerations in ensuring a successful retrofit. \nWhat you will learn: \n\nHeat transfer mechanisms and U-values.\nProperties and application of insulation\, thermal mass\, air-tightness\, and ‘breathability’.\nUnderstand key performance risks – cold bridging\, leaks\, indoor air quality and moisture.\nSpecification concerns – context and criteria.\n\nExisting knowledge required: None \nTrainer: Marianne Heaslip\, URBED \nA chartered architect with interests in urban design\, sustainability and participative design. She holds an MSc in Advanced Environment and Energy Studies from the Centre for Alternative Technology\, and is a Certified Passive House Designer. She worked on pioneering TSB ‘Retrofit for the Future’ projects with the lessons learned through this work applied in her role on the Carbon Coop’s retrofit ‘Community Green Deal’ programme. \n \nDetails \nCourse dates: \nSat 25th November 2017\nSat 10th February 2018  – RESCHEDULED: Sun 13th May 2018\nSat 15th September 2018 \nCost: \nMember early bird – £40 \nNon-Member early bird – £55 \nMember standard – £50 \nNon member standard – £70 \n**Early bird tickets end one month before the training** \nPlease bring a packed lunch.

SUMMARY:DIY Retrofit for Homeowners - Apr 2018
DESCRIPTION:Understand retrofit theory\, learn practical skills and how to manage risk\n\n“The course exceeded my expectation by miles! Gained so much knowledge. Really good structure\, especially learning the theory before the practical parts. Really in-depth teaching\, especially around risks involved.” – Participant 2016\nDescription: This 3 day course tackles the key areas of fabric upgrades applicable to most homes. Includes airtightness works and insulation\, covering basic measures such as draft-proofing\, moving on to more advanced subjects such as floor and wall insulation. The focus is on teaching principles through practical examples.\nFor: Homeowners who want to carry out some or all of their own improvements. Handy-people interested in learning more about retrofit.\nBenefit: Gain practical knowledge and confidence to undertake home improvements with an understanding of potential risks and how to mitigate them.\nWhat you will learn:\n\nWhat is a thermal bridge and why do they matter?\nPractical hands-on skills\nLearn the right tools for the right job\nDelivering results on a budget\nAirtightness and draught-proofing techniques and materials\nUnderfloor\, wall and loft insulation\n\nDetailed course information.\nKnowledge required: No DIY experience required or previous knowledge needed.  \nTrainer: Dan Chaplin\, Think Building Energy\nHas more than 10 years of experience in domestic refurbishment and retrofit\, with a proven track record of delivering quality\, award winning buildings. Having worked in a variety of roles\, from operational site work through to project management and technical specification he has strong insight into all aspects of the subject. Dan has a particular interest in the risks that exist around retrofit and has worked with Leeds Beckett University on this. \nDates+times:\n28th\, 29th April and 12th May 2018\n9:30am – 4:30pm every day. \nCost:\n\nMember early bird – £240\nNon-member early bird – £300\nMember standard – £280\nNon-member standard – £350\n\n**Early bird rates until 31st March 2018**\nBursaries available\, email info@carbon.coop for more. \n\nThis training is a part of Carbon Co-op’s Home Energy Training Programme\, see more here: carbon.coop/training
