Colden Common’s very own eco home is opening its doors to the public with guided tours between 1 and 4pm on Saturday 24th March. This is your chance to get close to sustainable technologies and explore ways to cut your energy bills, generate your own energy and increase your home comfort.
Our property, a 1979 detached house, has been refurbished with comfort, energy saving and the environment in mind. As a result its carbon footprint has been cut by 80% making it a SuperHome. As part of a network of over 100 SuperHomes, we volunteer our time to share both the benefits and challenges of making an old home energy efficient. Don’t expect a sales pitch (this is a charity initiative), but do bear in mind that enthusiasm can be infectious. We hope you’ll join us. Please see the Open Day information below and browse the website to find out more about SuperHomes.
