Retrofit Hub
Retrofitting is the act of fitting new systems, designed for high energy efficiency and low energy consumption, to buildings built without them. This can range from small activities such as fitting energy-efficient light bulbs to installing state-of-the-art heating systems. The reasons for doing this are simple: A more efficient building will be cheaper to run, have a lower impact on the environment and the higher energy rating that comes with this can increase the value of the property.

Importance of fitting the correct materials
Target Co2 have recently partnered with Bradfords to assist them in stocking the correct materials needed for Retrofit projects. It is extremely important that the correct systems are used and fitted correctly as there is no one-fits-all system.
What do I do next?
Target Co2 have developed a service called Home Energy Surveys. More information can be found on our Homeowners page.
When carried out before the planning and delivery of retrofit projects, these surveys help to avoid common – and often costly – mistakes. They include a full Retrofit assessment and pre and post Energy Performance Reports along with prices for carrying out the recommended works. Target Co2 work with insulation and renewables companies that can be trusted to carry out installations to the required standards.
