My guest is Tim Forcey, an engineer who advises households on what can be done to improve home comfort and energy use as well as reduce our energy bills.
Tim has helped over 1,000 Melbourne homes decide what they can do, in what order and what priority.
On this episode, we will be discussing home energy and how we can make our households more efficient and also reduce our emissions.
