Interested in how you can improve the comfort of your home, reduce energy bills and limit your carbon footprint? Join us as we navigate which improvements can make the most difference and what are simple, inexpensive things you can do to make a difference.

The webinar will appeal to home owners and renters and especially to those of us who live in SE QLD. You’ll hear about how to optimise for keeping cool and comfortable at home which is very relevant with our warm weather expected to continue to April!!! You’ll also be introduced to the Residential Efficiency Scorecard a nation-wide tool that has been designed to help households better understand the energy performance of their homes.
