You may have heard the term retrofit, but what does it actually mean? While it’s commonly used in the energy efficiency world, many people aren’t quite sure what it involves.
Simply put, retrofit means making improvements to your home that help it use less energy. These changes could range from small, simple fixes like installing draft-proofing strips around your front door to larger upgrades, such as external wall insulation or a new energy-efficient heating system!
For many, the biggest hurdle is the worry about cost and knowing where to begin. But here’s the good news: there are ways to make these improvements without the hassle or the high price tag.
Government grants are available to help with the cost, and depending on your home’s current energy efficiency and your household income, you may be eligible for support.
To make things even easier, Ferry Farm Community Solar is offering 20 subsidised retrofit assessments. Here’s how it works: you pay just £100, and we’ll cover the remaining £500—giving you over 80% off the usual price.
A retrofit assessment is the ideal starting point. It will highlight simple, practical steps you can take to make your home warmer, drier and more affordable to heat. Plus, you'll receive personalised advice based on your specific property and circumstances, so you can focus on the most effective improvements.
