Comment sortir d’une passoire énergétique sans sacrifier son confort ?

Have you had an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) done and your home is rated F or G? Yet, you feel good there and find your home comfortable… So, is it absolutely necessary to undertake major renovations to escape the "energy sieve" status? This video is not intended to criticize the work of energy assessors, who most often do their job correctly, within the constraints imposed on them…    • DPE : origine, évolution et CARENCES   In it, I explain why the real comfort of a home doesn't depend solely on the EPC rating. Wall coverings, thermal effusivity, radiant heating, choice of materials, colors, wood, fabrics, earth plasters… discover simple and coherent solutions to improve your perceived thermal comfort and your daily quality of life. The EPC remains an administrative and theoretical tool. But the comfort, sustainability, and ease of use of your home deserve a more comprehensive approach.

A Habitologist is an independent professional who guides clients to make their homes more comfortable, energy-efficient, healthy, and sustainable. They identify the factors that influence their comfort and provide the tools to make informed decisions based on a thorough understanding of their living space. Their impartial and objective approach ensures advice focused on their needs, free from commercial influence, thus preventing often unnecessary renovations. They help clients reduce the environmental impact of their homes and save energy.

As an author with Terre Vivante and host of the YouTube channel “Papy Claude,” I now devote myself to this sharing by building a network of professionals: the habitologists. The goal of this network is to help residents achieve their objectives: to attain comfort while significantly and genuinely reducing their environmental footprint (greenhouse gas emissions, resource use, etc.), and to respect the relationship between residents and their homes (housing sustainability, budget, etc.). Former craftsman, former project manager, former timber frame builder, trainer in ecological construction and insulation, author of articles... My favorite word? Relevance!
