Building an 8-Star Energy-Efficient Home: Our Progress

We're building an 8-star energy-rated home in Australia, prioritizing comfort, sustainability, and lower energy bills.

Key steps include under-slab insulation for thermal efficiency, strategically placed double-glazed windows, and a Pro Clima airtight wrap.

These measures significantly improve year-round temperature regulation, minimizing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer.

Our choices are focused on long-term energy savings, creating a comfortable and environmentally responsible home.
