Thermal imaging project community group resources

Thank you once again for signing up to deliver thermal imaging surveys in your local area. You are helping to save energy one thermal image at a time! Please find all of our useful guidance and resources below.

Running Your Project:

There are lots of different ways you can advertise the thermal imaging surveys: below are template flyers, magazine articles and social media posts. Previous groups have also found using local groups successful too, such as a repair café, food bank or going to local events.

If you know of a particular area in your community that may benefit from a thermal imaging survey, you could drop an opt out flyer through their doors and then visit them all. This means we can help those that might need it most. The thermal imaging survey starts a discussion about their energy efficiency, grants available and insulation to keep homes warm in winter and cool in summer.

Or you may choose to target homes with a low EPC rating as they are likely to be able to make the biggest improvement to their home’s energy efficiency. Visit the Government’s find an EPC website to find the homes with a low EPC rating in your area.

When you carry out the survey with the householder, you are likely to spot ways that they can make their home warmer and reduce their energy bills. Go to the next steps page for how to help them.
