Abstract
This paper presents an insulation retrofitting method developed for nomadic mobile housing called ger, which is used by urban residents in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, to promote the shift from coal stoves to electric heating devices to reduce air pollution. Field surveys of current gers were conducted to ensure that the design and materials chosen were affordable with high market availability. The developed system was installed in a typical urban ger in winter to obtain feedback from residents and local stakeholders. The results of field measurements of indoor thermal conditions of a ger with and without retrofitting are reported.
