Last Listing description (November 2020)
When choosing a home the old saying, They dont build them like they used to is true. Except with a Geoff Gibson home where they take tried and tested construction methods and have improved them with technology to make this a very special property. If you have a long term view to your home ownership, understanding the underlying value of the home will make you recognize why you should purchase a Geoff Gibson built property. Take the time, do yourself a favour and read the information below and understand this home is not only a beautiful home to live in but also a well built property.
Built above the Australian standard, this 8.1 Star rated home is the result of 12 years of research and development of Environmentally Sustainable Passive Home Design by Geoff Gibson Homes. Good passive design is critical to achieving a lifetime of thermal comfort, low energy costs and low greenhouse emissions. Achieving the 8.1 star energy rating has been a result of focusing on three essential elements of design Orientation, Insulation and Zoning.
Orientation: The positioning of a building in relation to seasonal variation in the suns path and prevailing wind patterns. This normally entails designing with a wider exposure to the North and reduced exposure to the West. Perfectly placed on the lot and combined with larger windows along the Northern exterior walls of the home allow the direct entry of Winter sun and with 600mm eaves, this will exclude direct Summer sunlight. This improved orientation has achieved a cost free improvement to the life time sustainability of the home.
Insulation: The entire envelope of the home has been insulated. The exterior walls and the walls dividing the home and the garage have high density R 2.0 Batts fitted. The complete ceiling of the home including the alfresco area and the front patio have had R 3.5 Insulation batts fitted.
Zoning: The dividing of the building with airlocks to increase the sealing of the building and reduce the area required to heat or cool. You will note doorways have been place to separate the livings areas from the bedroom areas.
The principle behind this is also very simple. When you are entering your home you open the front door or the garage door and this will allow the heat or the cold to come rushing into the living areas of the building. By sealing the entry with an internal entry door and by putting breeze seals on the internal garage we reduce this air movement. Just these simple processes have dramatically reduced the buildings energy requirements and therefore reduced the carbon emissions by up to 6,000 kg per year. The predicted energy load of a generic home in the same area could be as high 109.2 MJ/m2 annually and the 8.1 Star home at 25 McBurnie Avenue will have an energy load of 38.1 MJ/m2 annually.
To complete the package, a 3.9kw Photovoltaic System has been incorporated on the roof to offset the small amount of the power required. This system includes 12 REC Panels (25 yr Warranty) and a Fronius Inverter.
Additional to the dramatic reduction in the required energy to heat and cool the home, a German engineered Stiebel Eltron Hot Water Heat Pump has been fitted, which uses the ambient temperature of the air to create the energy to produce your hot water efficiently. This system has been connected to a timer so it uses power only when the solar system is producing the power.
Also not required but further added an Air Infiltration test of this home at 25 McBurnie Avenue has proven that Geoff Gibson homes and this home in particular, has an air infiltration standard three times better than Industry average.
An inspection of this incredible property is simply a must. For more information, call Cooper Watson on 0427 557 654 or Bria Hurst on 0466 452 477.
