Cool Heat Hacks for Rental Homes
Renters of Sydney – have you been you sweltering at home without aircon over this summer's heatwave? Or were you freezing cold at home last winter?
We got you!
Come along to our climate clinic to learn cheap and easy ways to achieve thermal comfort in your rented home, while reducing your energy consumption (and saving money!).
UTS Institute for Sustainable Futures and UTS Business School have been investigating ways that people living in rental properties – especially students – can cheaply and easily weather-proof their properties without making big changes.
Hear from the experts about what they discovered, then raise your own issues with them to receive a tailored ‘prescription’ of actions you can take.
