Energy efficient PLANNING By BuILDIng or renovating in smarter ways, we can reduce water consumption, keep power bills affordable and preserve the environment for generations to come. If you’re thinking of building, site your house to best utilise the sun. If you’re considering adding onto your house, think about the possibilities of extending on the northern side of your house, where you can enhance the usefulness of outdoor living space as well. All water use has environmental impacts. Making water conservation decisions today helps ensure that there will be ample supplies for the next generation and sets habits that have good long-term economic benefits in metered areas. Old hot water heaters can lose up to 15 per cent of total hot water energy cost, but you can redress that through wrapping the cylinder effectively. uninsulated hot water pipes also rob the water of heat before it reaches its destination. Pipe insulation is inexpensive and effective in keeping water hot all the way to the tap. An on demand hot water switch circulates water in the pipes until it is hot, saving power and water, and increasing your comfort. Old toilet cisterns are particularly wasteful of water. Modern ones use significantly less. Saving electricity can be as simple as changing the kind of light bulb you’re using. Compact fluorescent light bulbs are more expensive, but they use one quarter the electricity of an incandescent bulb and last 10 times as long. Likewise, appliances have become much more energy efficient. Look for their energy rating when buying a new fridge or freezer. Insulation is an excellent investment all round, so consider increasing the amount of insulation throughout the house if you’re planning to build or while you’re renovating. It will pay for itself in just a few years and you’ll be more comfortable. It’s common sense to take advantage of the heat from the sun whenever possible. Passive solar design, orienting windows to the north with overhangs, is a no-cost option that can reduce heating costs by 20 to 30 per cent. Passive cooling uses prevailing breezes, shading and natural plantings to keep the home cool all summer long without air conditioning. Active solar hot water heating is a cost-effective alternative to conventional hot water heating that can pay for itself in as few as even years. Advances in technology have improved efficiency and durability of systems considerably. A little preliminary thought on how your new home or addition can improve the way you live, long term, pays for itself very quickly.
