Did you know? Heating and cooling make up around 40% of the average home’s energy use, while appliances and equipment account for another 30%. That’s a big opportunity to save energy and money with just a few smart changes 🔌💸

Each kit includes:

📷 Thermal imaging camera: Detect draughts, insulation gaps, fridge seal leaks, and check hot water temperature

🔌 Plug-in energy monitor: Measure how much energy your appliances use (and what they cost to run)

💧 Basin flow measuring cup: Check your tap water flow rate

🌡️ Thermometer: Measure room, fridge, and freezer temperatures

📘 Instruction manual: Step-by-step guidance, safety info, and tips to reduce energy and water use

📗 ‘My Efficient Electric Home Handbook’ by Tim Forcey: Packed with practical advice on improving efficiency and reducing reliance on artificial heating and cooling

🏠 Thermal imaging guidebook: Tailored for home-building insights
