Energy Doctor
For residents in Islington
Energy Doctor in the Home (EDH) is an Islington based project run by Groundwork UK.
EDH can make free house calls to our residents in Islington to help reduce your energy consumption, tackle fuel poverty and reduce your CO2 emissions by offering specialist and personalised energy advice and energy saving devices to help you save money on your energy bills. Through the energy doctor you will learn:
- how to understand energy tariffs.
- how to switch supplier.
- how to understand heating controls.
- how to set timers.
- about grants available for larger measures such as loft insulation.
- how to understand energy bills.
- about damp and mould.
If you sign up and assessor will come and see you and document the technical measures you may require such as radiator panels. This will be followed up by a visit from a technician who will install the technical measures.
Case study
One resident who has already signed up for the Energy Doctor is Mavis Hill, who is the Chair of BELMO (Barnsbury Estate Local Management Organisation). She said "it has been really good finding out about how I can help the environment and save money at the same time. The Energy Doctor fitted radiator panels for me and I have also had draft proofing done to my main door. I think these measures will really make a difference to my energy bills.
I think everyone should think about having the Energy Doctor come to visit as it really will save you money in the long run."
