community HeatHack event: 25 January

HeatHack has a free event for community venues seeking support heating their buildings and potentially fixing energy wastes.  HeatHack wants to help community groups in Edinburgh think more about heating controls and how they use them. 

All attendees will receive a free volunteer-build temperature and relative humidity monitor that sends readings to the internet, thanks to the Edinburgh Retrofitters and HeatHack’s funders – the Royal Academy of Engineering Ingenious programme. 

HeatHack Event is on Thursday 25 January 10am – 12noon, at Augustine United Church, ,George IV Bridge, Edinburgh.

This is a free in person event open to all community venues and churches needing support.  Interested community group members can register via Eventbrite.

HeatHack has a guide which gives insight into the HeatHack programme for your information: https://guide.heathack.org/intro.html.  Should you want to contact Heathack directly, please emailMim Wright (administrator) at admin@heathack.org.
