NRLA launches retrofit course, helping landlords save money

The NRLA has added a new course to its offering this summer, with A Landlord's Guide to Retrofitting launching in July. 

This month's course of the month, the training will offer practical advice for landlords on how to lower fuel bills, and tackle damp and mould as well as offering an in-depth look at systems for insulation, heating, ventilation, and renewables.  

The course has been devised by Dr Sue Roberts, an experienced Domestic Energy Assessor and Green Deal Advisor, who will explain how landlords can retrofit to meet existing – or new – energy performance requirements, including the different options for heating water. 

Delivered virtually, by an NRLA trainer in real time, the first eClassroom course will be held on Wednesday, 10 July. 

The course costs £154 for members and £193 for non-members. You can book your place here.
