Energy Efficient Design

8 Star Rated Energy Efficient Home Design In Wagga

If you are thinking of building a new efficient home design, affordability is without a doubt a key concern. However affordability is not just about the initial costs of construction. With rising energy costs the affordability equation now needs to include the living costs that you will experience over the life of your new home.

At Hurst Homes we like to help you get on the front foot and be proactive and combat the ever rising costs of running your home.

When designing your home we think about the important things:

  • Solar orientation and location of your home

  • Layout and zoning features

  • Insulation requirements

  • Window glazing

  • Photovoltaics – solar electricity

  • Solar electricity storage – batteries

  • Minimising your home’s running costs

  • Lifestyle choices

Considering your homes energy rating before you build and making it as energy efficient as you can afford will make your home more cost effective now and will make a more attractive investment.

Hurst homes want to help you be smart and protect your income and your largest asset. We incorporate energy efficient design into all our homes having been on the forefront in our region and awarded for our innovation and commitment to building sustainable homes.
