Deterioration of retrofit

In today’s episode, host Jonathan Newton is joined by Dr Martin Fletcher, Senior Research Fellow at Leeds Sustainability Institute. Martin gives an overview of the Deterioration of Retrofit Insulation Performance (DRIP) report, outlines the biggest lessons learned, and explains how they can shape future retrofit initiatives. The episode also looks at the main factors that contribute to the deterioration of retrofit insulation and how they can be mitigated, best practices for maintaining and monitoring retrofit improvements over time and how housing providers can successfully implement long-term sustainability measures in their retrofit initiatives. For further information visit: https://www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/research/leeds-sustainability-institute/This podcast is an informal discussion between interested parties associated with Retrofit Information, Support and Expertise.
