When designing and building a new home, incorporating energy efficient features not only makes a huge difference in comfort and long-term cost savings, it will also ensure you are building a sustainable home that is friendlier on the environment.
There are many factors that come into consideration when we design and build your energy efficient home. Things like the orientation of the house, for example. Ensuring that the positioning of your house on your block will take the best possible advantage of sun and shade throughout the day, as well as throughout the seasons is important to consider at the initial planning stages of your home build.
Something we take care of at Tropic Coast Homes. We choose quality construction materials and methods to ensure your home build meets a high energy rating so you can have peace of mind that your home will be comfortable and efficient all year round.
We also offer the option to upgrade your home build to include renewable energy systems, such as solar, that harness naturally generated energy. Solar panels provide one of the most cost-effective forms of renewable energy for a home. It will lower the long-term running costs of your home and have the potential to reduce, or even eliminate, electricity bills.
If you would like more information about upgrading to solar, please enquire with one of our friendly team members. The goal of an energy efficient home is to significantly lower energy usage on a daily basis, and these are just some of the many ways we look to increase the energy efficiency of your new home.
Building Materials
Rendered Concrete Block, Colorbond Iron roof with Polyair Performa 4 Insulation, we use efficient construction methods to ensure a high level of airtightness and therefore energy efficiency in your home.
Build Orientation
We take into consideration the orientation of the house and positioning on the block to ensure your home takes advantage of the sun and shade throughout the day and seasons of the year.
Good Ventilation
With a minimum 2.6 metre ceilings, wide hallways and large doors to patio, there is more space for air to circulate, thus allowing natural airflow, which can cool the house down faster. Very important in Far North Queensland!
