Complying with Energy Efficiency Standards in NSW
To comply with energy efficiency standards in New South Wales, consider the following:
- The NSW Government’s Building Code of Australia (BCA) requires a minimum energy rating for all buildings.
- Install energy-efficient windows, doors, and insulation to reduce heat loss and gain.
- Use low-flow showerheads and toilets to conserve water.
- Incorporate solar panels or renewable energy systems to generate electricity.
Consult the NSW Government’s website or hire a registered building professional to ensure your granny flat meets energy efficiency standards.
