You can book a free heat survey by selecting a date on our booking page*. One of our Community Heat Team volunteers will be in touch to confirm your slot.
We will be opening up slots on a regular basis but they are currently booking up almost straight away. If there are no available slots then please complete this expression of interest form and we will notify you when new slots open up. Please note that surveys may sometimes have to be cancelled at short notice due to unsuitable weather conditions.
The survey aims to detect areas of severe heat loss. To be able to identify these areas with an infrared camera, we have to rely on a relative big difference between temperature inside (say 20 °C/ 68 °F) and outside (5°C/ 41°F). It needs to be dark and to be reasonably calm weather (high winds that hit one side of the house make it difficult to compare readings for this wall to those for other exterior walls).
If the weather isn’t suitable, we will contact you a day or two in advance of the survey to re-arrange.
