"Build Tight - Ventilate Right" - The green building mantra from the energy saving experts at the Energy Saving Trust (EST). To minimise energy consumption and cut CO2 emissions the construction industry are now required, by law, to provide airtight, super-insulated buildings with the most energy efficient ventilation possible. That’s all very well if you’re building from scratch, but what if you already own a home or commercial property? How do you rebuild tight – ventilate right?

Solarcrest offers energy saving and energy generating products designed specifically for eco retrofitting existing buildings. Products range from simple quick fixes like draught proofing, replacement LED lighting or super insulation, to more ambitious micro generation and renewables. While every product offers cash and climate saving benefits, before you begin your low carbon journey or get dazzled by eco bling we recommend you start with a holistic plan of action, beginning with an Energy Performance Assessment.
