Plumbing & Drainage
Hot water supply is efficient
Hot water system is located as close as possible to the areas where hot water is needed
Wet areas in the dwelling are grouped close to each other
Hot water system
is energy efficient
Hot water system is either a gas system (instantaneous or storage) that has a 5 star AGA energy rating
Or solar system (electrical gas boosted) or heat pump with a minimum of 24 renewable energy certificates (RECs)
Consumption of mains
water supply is reduced
Water tank to collect rainwater from roofs of the dwelling, garage and any storage shed, is installed that
Has at least 3,000 litre capacity for small lots and 5,000 litres for larger lots
Has a first flush device, mesh strainer and mosquito proofed
Is connected for use in the gardens, all toilets and the cold water outlet in the laundry
Reduce water usage
and waste going to sewer
Install a composting toilet
Install grey water storage and reuse system (water from sower, washing machines)
Electrical. Lighting & Gas
Electrical layout maximises
the safety of using electrical appliances
Install sufficient power points located with regard to likely furniture and appliance arrangements
If the mains power switch is located externally to the house, a padlock is fitted
Electrical appliances
are energy efficient
Energy performance rating of 4 stars is the minimum for all appliances
Such as washing machines, air conditioners, dryers, refrigerators and dishwashers
Artificial lighting,
externally and internally
is energy efficient
The installed lighting is predominantly fluorescent tubes or compact Flurocent lights for ambient lighting
Stoves and ovens
are energy efficient
Oven is gas or fan-forced electric
Where possible the cook top uses natural gas
Stoves and ovens are safe to use
Gas cook top has an emergency cut-off switch installed
If fitted the oven wall is securely mounted
Every gas appliance and range hood has a flue to outside
Anti-tilt bracket or iron-stove lock is fitted to upright stoves and ovens
Site & Landscape
Soil degradation, sediment run
off, storm water runoffhas been reduced
The landscape design reduces storm water runoff from the site from the site through permeable paving, soak wells, lawn pebble paths, infiltration trenches and garden areas
Soft landscaping accounts for a minimum of 30% of the site area
Landscaping reduces the need for water,
chemical and energy inputs
Grow similar needs plants together
Use plants that have low watering needs, are suited and appropriate to the soil conditions and are native to the local area
Site needs minimal change
to accommodate the home
Give preference to sites which don't require removal of large amounts of vegetation, especially deep rooted trees
Avoid alteration of watercourses and drainage patterns
Preferences to sites that are flat/ have a gentle slope to minimise cut and fill excavation
