John Edwards said:
‘This IHBC Guidance Note goes beyond retrofit and expresses the holistic approach to improving the energy performance of buildings based on BS7913.’
‘This has now been updated to take account of the recent review of PAS2035, the BSI standard for retrofitting dwellings and publication of BSI PAS2038, the standard for non-domestic buildings which is also referenced.’
‘We are planning a short webinar on the updated IHBC Toolbox guidance, and I also look forward to incorporating this in my presentation to the IHBC’s 2022 Annual School in Aberdeen this June, and will include an illustration of online tools which are part of this process.’
‘I will also take a more detailed look at the guidance linked to Level 3 courses on retrofitting traditional buildings, and if anyone is interested in this they are welcome to contact me.’
The guidance is free to access and can be downloaded from the IHBC ToolBox located on the IHBC website.
