Understand Your Home’s Energy Efficiency with the Residential Efficiency Scorecard
The Residential Efficiency Scorecard is a government-endorsed home energy assessment that rates your home’s energy efficiency on a scale of 1 to 10. Conducted by accredited assessors, it identifies key areas for improvement - such as heating, cooling, insulation, and draught proofing - helping you lower energy bills, increase comfort, and reduce your environmental impact.
A deep dive into your home’s full energy-use profile
Whilst draught-proofing is often an excellent primary step in transforming how energy efficient your home is, the Residential Efficiency Scorecard program takes a deep dive into all the pieces of the puzzle. It will clearly demonstrate a pathway so that you can effectively:
Lower Your Energy Bills – Identifies cost-saving energy improvements.
Improve Home Comfort – Helps reduce draughts, heat loss, and extreme temperature changes.
Plan Efficient Upgrades – Provides a roadmap for prioritising home improvements.
Increase Property Value – A higher energy rating can make your home more appealing to buyers.
A certified assessor evaluates how efficient the key features of your home are…
The type and fuel source of your key space heating and cooling appliances
Insulation in your ceiling, walls and underfloor has an immense effect on inside temperatures
How well your home is draught proofed, checking for sources of air leakage
How your home is constructed and the materials that are used
Assessing how your water for washing and cooking is heated, whether using gas or electricity
Fixed, opening, air tight, single or double glazed - how your windows perform is critical
Whether your home makes the most of passive solar heating, using the sun’s warmth to heat and shade to cool
Does your home have it’s own mini-power station? If so, how can you make best use of the power you produce.
