Indicative result
Model 1.0.0This scenario assumes the repair directly defers a replacement purchase. The estimate subtracts 2.6 kg CO₂e for the selected service journey.
Indicative estimate, not certified carbon accounting.
Actual outcomes depend on the fault, parts, repair success, use, travel and what would otherwise have been purchased.
What the result means
A prompt for a better decision—not a promise of savings.
Impact deferred
An indicative estimate of replacement manufacturing impact deferred, less one selected technician journey.
Mass kept in use
Representative product mass for the selected items if they remain in service; not measured waste.
Life modelled
The selected life extension capped at the category reference life, so the result does not overstate the model.
Why repair can matter
The lowest-impact product can be the one already made.
Extend useful product life
Preserve the materials and manufacturing effort already invested in an appliance or device.
Defer premature replacement
Delay a new manufacturing and distribution cycle where repair is safe and practical.
Keep the decision honest
Parts, travel, repair success, energy use and the alternative replacement all affect the outcome.
Transparent by design
A small model with visible sources and limits.
The V1 model uses representative Impact CO₂ / ADEME manufacturing data, representative product-mass proxies, a UK government travel factor and declared eServ scenario assumptions.

Repair first
Maintain what is useful. Replace only when it makes sense.

What this estimate can—and cannot—tell you.
Is this an official carbon footprint?
No. It is an indicative decision-support estimate, not certified carbon accounting, a product declaration or a guarantee.
Does repair always reduce impact?
No. Repair success, parts, travel, ongoing energy use, product condition and the alternative replacement all matter.
Why subtract technician travel?
A service visit has an impact. Including one selected total journey avoids treating repair as impact-free.
Why show an indicative range?
The inputs are representative rather than item-specific lifecycle data. The range communicates that model variation without claiming statistical confidence.
