Whole Home Survey: 100 surveyors now trained!

CEWales is a member of the Optimised Retrofit consortium and the project has now hit a major milestone, as the first version of the Whole Home Survey has now been launched ready for use.

Optimised Retrofit has now hit a major milestone, as the first version of the Whole Home Survey has now been launched. Throughout February, more than 100 project managers and surveyors completed their Home Survey Training. Over four weeks, participants explored a series of modules, each designed to cover all aspects of the Whole Home Survey.

Each survey is specific to each home and determines the Pathways to Zero plan that will take that home to its lowest achievable carbon footprint.

Owain Israel, Project Manager, from Linc Cymru said, “I completed the training along with three of my colleagues. The training itself, half a day a week over four weeks, was easy to follow. Learning virtually posed its challenges but is something I think we have all grown used to as we have been working remotely since the pandemic first began.”

Owain and his colleagues from Linc Cymru have already started testing out the approach.

“We have been out this week and undertaken the first Whole Home Survey for Linc, which is very exciting! The first survey took a little longer than expected but I am sure after feedback this will speed up. We have a catch up scheduled to see how these are progressing and how the ‘app’ is working.”

More on this to follow soon.
