As construction of the CarbonLight Homes nears an end the site is a hive of activity. Inside, electrical and mechanical works are almost complete, kitchens and sanitaryware are installed and decoration is at an advanced stage. External works are also progressing well, with the driveways and back gardens now complete.
The difficult task of coordinating the electrical and mechanical works with the building management system has been a steep learning curve for everyone involved, but the result will be an intelligent home that balances comfort, energy efficiency and liveability.
The CarbonLight Homes are already attracting attention as passers by get a first glimpse. Some local councillors, council officers and tenants groups have been given a brief tour with some exceptional feedback and the team is now looking forward to the official launch next month.
