Energy Tracers survey

Energy Tracers, a project of Transition Malvern Hills, is running a scheme to help people make their houses more energy efficient.

The household to be thermal imaged is required to heat the house to 10 degrees hotter than outside. A fan is fitted to an outside door and some hot air is sucked out so that cold air from outside is sucked in. The surveyor then goes round the house with a thermal imaging camera which picks up any leaks and draughts.

 

The householder then gets a CD with dialogue and notes and can choose how to deal with problems. The householder also gets a box with monitoring equipment to check just how much power different pieces of equipment are using. There is also advice available for sorting out problems.

 

 

We are looking for Hotspotters who find 3 or 4 other friends / neighbours who are interested. The surveyor will Thermal Image the Hotspotter's house first and then the Hotspotter will accompany the surveyor to the other 4 houses. The schedule is tight as each house takes no more than 2 hours. The houses must be 15 minutes max travelling distance from each other in a car.

 

Thank you so much for taking an interest.
