In2Air Project: Retrofit Health Outcomes Evidence Model

How do retrofits affect the air we breathe? The In2Air study is testing this by monitoring 90 homes before and after energy-efficiency works, tracking indoor air quality (IAQ), energy bills, and resident health. The goal: evidence-based retrofit that balances carbon savings, comfort, and healthier lives. 

Key insights from the episode: 

  • Retrofitting without ventilation can unintentionally worsen IAQ, fuelling damp and mould.
