SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC• The longest part of the roof is east facing.
However, there is suitable space facing north to install 1.5 kW solar panels.
• There is shading within 40 and 60 degrees of north which would lead to some shading in the afternoon.
• The roof pitch is 30 degrees
BUILDING INSULATION
• The customer claims that there is 100% reflective foil (sarking) insulation for the entire house.
• Ceiling insulation in the lounge only, accounting for approximately 30% of the house. Additional ceiling insulation can be installed in the ceiling area, costing around $12-20/sqm.
• The insulation type is Wool Batt with a rating of R2.5
• The customer advises you the thermal comfort of the property is cold in the winter and good in summer.
23
HOT WATER HEATER• 315 litre electric storage hot water system on Off Peak Use Tariff
(see Fig.4)• The customer is interested in solar electric hot water and is
interested in the current solar hot water rebates. Total installation cost of is $5,699 and customer will pay $3,137 after STC discount ($962), Federal ($1,000) and QLD rebates ($600).
• There is no insulation on pipework. This cost $100 to insulate the hot water pipes.

WATER USE
• No rainwater tank, bore or grey water used.
• Garden and trees have medium water demand.
• The irrigation method is a hose. Garden watering – 5mins/day, 5 days/week, 26 weeks/year.

25
POOL AND SPA BATH• There is a 50,000L pool (See Fig. 5). There is no spa.
• Pool Filter (see Fig. 6) has a 1kW single speed pump which runs 8 hours a day in summer, winter, autumn and spring. The pool pump is on Tariff 11.
• The customer is concerned that the pool pump may have consumed a lot of electricity so he is considering connecting the pool to cheaper tariff.
• The customer is interested in replacing a single speed pump with a new 3 speed pump and a pump timer to cut down energy use for the pool. The pipe diameter is 50mm.
• The ideal runtime for the pump if a timer is used would be 8 hrs in summer, 4 hrs in winter, 6 hrs in autumn, and 6 hours in spring. You estimated $1,200 for a 3 speed pool pump and $300 for an additional pool timer.
• The top up water source is potable water.
• Backwash – 20 times a year.
• No pool blanket is used. A pool cover is highly recommended.

TRANSPORT
• Joe lives 5 kms away from his workplace and takes the bus 5 days/week, approximately 50kms per week, total 250 kms all family members (per week).
• All family members commute by a small car (E10) at weekends approximately 200 kms/week, 52 weeks.
• During conversation between you (assessor) and Joe (property owner), you discuss the possibility of behavioural alterations to reduce energy use in his property, as follows.
43
BEHAVIOURAL
• Reduce hours of exterior lighting overnight when not needed – saving 99 kWh p.a.
• Switch off some internal lights in living area & kitchen and open the curtain to take advantage of natural light – estimated saving 330 kWh savings p.a.
Lighting
During conversation between you (assessor) and Joe (property owner), you discuss the possibility of behavioural alterations to reduce energy use in his property, as follows.
Admin Energy• Switch off office & entertainment devices
at the wall after use – estimated saving 80kWh p.a
Climate Control• Increase the ducted air conditioner temperature setting from 23°C to 24°C for the
whole house in summer – saving 222 kWh p.a. (based on a 10% reduction in air conditioning energy use per 1°C reduction)
44
BEHAVIOURAL
Showerhead
• Reduce your current shower time from 7 mins to 4 mins to save water – estimated saving of 18 kL p.a.
Washing MachineUse washing machine at full load to avoid unnecessary washes – estimated saving of 4 kL p.a.
Note: calculate energy & water saving can be calculated by using the formulas below.
• Energy (kWh)= Power (kW) x usage reduction(hours reduction p.a.) • Energy (kWh)= Power reduction (kW reduction) x usage reduction
(hours p.a.)• Water (kL)= Water flow reduction (L/min) x Total mins p.a. (1 kL/1000L)• Water (kL)= Water (L/min) x Total mins reduction p.a. (1 kL/1000L)
Food Preparation
• Avoid cooking several small meals and instead, allow family members to prepare meals together – reducing total food preparation energy in oven and cooktop by 309kWh p.a.
