Event description

Solar Dwellings and Renew Perth Branch are joining forces for SHD - Site selection and building to your budget

This talk by Griff Morris will go through the basics of site selection, orientation and building to your budget.

  • What exactly is orientation and how does this impact my home?
  • Designing homes on difficult sites where the orientation is not ideal.
  • Neighbours, what impact do they have on the efficiency of my home.
  • How does building a passive solar home impact your budget.
  • The three budgets you should know before building.
  • What is included in the builders cost and what other budgets do you need to consider before building your sustainable home.
  • Material selection and what impacts they have on performance and budgets.

Buy Renew and/or Sanctuary magazines and chat to Renew Perth Branch members.
