Electrify Your Life - Planning your home upgrades

By improving your home's efficiency, you can lower your bills and create a more comfortable home for your family.

Interested in making your home more comfortable and energy efficient, but don’t know where to start?

Our expert presenter Lucinda has worked with hundreds of households to improve their home's comfort and energy efficiency.

Instead of focusing on how to upgrade, Lucinda will help you review the strengths and weaknesses of your own home, so that you feel confident about where to start and how to prioritise your efforts.

During the session, we’ll talk about:

• how heat moves in and out of homes, so you can identify the areas creating heat movement (loss or gain)
• home upgrades that can reduce heat movement such as draught sealing, insulation, window treatments, glazing, frames and shading 
• identify the most important upgrades for your home
• review and rank your major appliances in terms of age, efficiency, and need for upgrade

There will be time for questions throughout, so you can understand what matters and why.

We will also provide a matching data collection sheet to take home, plus additional resources, so that you can gather further information and pinpoint areas you need to investigate further.

One week after this event, join an optional one hour online Q&A, where you can ask all of those questions you forgot to ask or didn't realise you needed to! 

Registrations are essential.

• This workshop is funded by Manningham Council and hosted in partnership with Ajani Neighbourhood House.
