WHAT IS A RETROFIT COORDINATOR AND WHY DO YOU NEED ONE?

A Retrofit Coordinator is a specialist retrofit project manager, taking overall responsibility for overseeing the assessment of dwellings, the identification, specification and evaluation of energy efficiency measures for installation at a given dwelling as a single project and their subsequent monitoring and evaluation.

One of our fully qualified retrofit coordinators will arrange a suitable date and time with the client to discuss the PAS2035 process, and what part the coordinator plays in the retrofit process. After this initial discussion, a plan of action can be formulated by the retrofit coordinator so that the successful installation of improvement measures can be made to meet the objectives by promoting and defining technically robust and responsible “whole-building” domestic retrofit work.

High quality work, that supports:

- Improved functionality, usability and durability of buildings;

- Improved comfort, health and well-being of building occupants and visitors

- Improved energy efficiency, leading to reduced fuel use, fuel costs and pollution (especially greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy use);

- Reduced environmental impacts of buildings.

PAS 2035 is the over-arching document in the retrofit standards framework.

Finally, once the installation has been completed and the relevant evaluation done the Retrofit Coordinator lodge’s the report on to the Trustmark Government scheme as required to comply with PAS2035 when carrying out domestic retrofit work.
