Heat Pumps

There has been much said and written about Heatpumps and we receive many questions on the topic. They are an increasingly important part of our armoury in our battle against climate change so we have created a helpful guide which answer some common questions and tackle some popular misconceptions. There is also a video of a PeCAN Heatpump webinar hosted by experts in this field that you can view.

Insulation

Internal Insulation Webinar

This webinar provides helpful background for anyone considering internal wall insulation using natural materials for their home.

This insulation can help to keep heat in during the winter and keep heat out during the summer. It is not likely to be appropriate for anyone with filled cavity walls.

Our guest speaker is Chris Brookman from Back to Earth.

You can also check out the slides from the presentation here.
