About this report

including heating and cooling, hot water, dishwashers, ovens,

General Information

A NatHERS House Energy Rating is a comprehensive, dynamic computer modelling evaluation of the floorplans, elevations and specifications to predict an energy load of a home. Not all of us use our homes in the same way, so ratings are generated using standard assumptions. This means homes can be compared across the country.

The actual energy consumption of your home may vary significantly from the predicted energy load figures in the report depending on issues such as the size of your household and your personal preferences, e.g. in terms of heating or cooling.

While the figures are an indicative guide to energy use, they can be used as a reliable guide for comparative purposes between different house designs and for demonstrating that the design meets the required regulatory compliance.

Homes that are energy efficient use less energy, are warmer in winter, cooler in summer and cost less to run. The higher the star rating the more energy efficient.

This NatHERS House Energy Rating report was carefully prepared by your assessor on the basis of comprehensive modelling using standard procedures to rate your home using the underlying engine developed by the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO).

All information relating to energy loads presented in this report is based on a range of standard assumptions in order to allow for comparisons with reports prepared for other homes and to demonstrate minimum regulatory compliance.

The standard assumptions include figures for occupancy, indoor air temperature and are based on a unique climate file for your region.
