George Clark Smarter Homes helpe owners save money and save the environment . Now one of the most well-known property experts (aka Restoration Man) on TV, and in this series, George Clarke explains how you can make your home more energy efficient and environmentally friendly. In the seven part series, the Sunderland born guru shares loads of tips that can make every house ‘smarter’ – from energy efficient light bulbs to insulating your loft.
“People aren’t going to change their habits just to save the environment,” George told the Daily Telegraph. They need to see the benefits for themselves.”
In this series, the 38 year old explains that the best way to make properties more sustainable is to adopt a holistic approach, recognising that saving energy needs to help homeowners without imposing significant additional costs.
He adds: “There is a perception that eco-designed homes are new builds, with a lot of hi-tech modern features. But all homes need to become eco-homes if we are to reduce carbon emissions in line with the Kyoto Protocol. Just think how much energy – and money, when it comes to fuel bills – can be saved with roof insulation and double glazing alone,” he says.
