Welcome to Enatap Energy Ratings
Energy Efficiency Assessments and Audits
All new dwellings, extensions/renovations and relocated homes must comply with minimum rating standards for energy efficiency.
Council Building Legislation requires that Energy Efficiency Assessments be prepared in order to demonstrate that proposed new dwellings meet the energy efficency standards of the Building Code of Australia. Following an audit the Energy Efficiency Assessment results in a final Energy Efficiency Rating for those dwellings.
With the move to sustainable building design, government is increasingly legislating for reductions in greenhouse gas emissions with the goal of utilizing energy more efficiently
Energy Efficient Buildings
An energy efficient home is a building which provides a high level of thermal comfort without an over reliance on artificial heating and cooling.
Ppassive solar design,for example,is a powerful technique for achieving year round thernal comfort. You can achieve a sustainable energy effieient home which is cool in summer and warm in winter.
Construction Analysis
The physical properties of a structure and its insulation, affects the thermal performance of the building. The insulating properties of the building envelope determines the rate of heat flow between building and the surrounding environment. A high percentage of heat also transfers through glazing, but this can be minimized with correct placement, size and shading.
Analyse Building Plans
When building plans are assessed and do not meet the minimum requirements for energy efficiency, we will advise solutions and recommendations for the dwelling to pass the energy efficiency assessment requirement. We will look at glazing, insulation, shading and ventilation.
"Our aim is to provide independent and affordable Energy Efficiency Assessments ensuring compliance with current standards and regulations. We do this through mutual relationships with clients and personnel in the building industry. We have earned trust and respect through our commitment to first class service"
