• Number and age of residents
• A floor plan (if available)
• House orientation
• House size (best approximation in m2 or squares)
• Significant exterior features
• Energy Efficiency Rating (EER) of your house (if it has one)
• Building type

• Energy use behaviour (showers, washing etc)
• Fridges and other major appliances

What do I get?

Upon completion, you will receive a detailed report that contains:

• Simple instructions that will make it easy for you to implement the energy saving tips.
• A clear path you can follow with a list of recommendations, in order of priority, of potential short and long term impacts.
• Handy hints on how you and your family can lower your environmental impact.

A typical family home in Australia can expect to save up to 33% by becoming more energy efficient. If you spend more than $1000 each year on energy, gas and water, a GCX Home Energy Assessment+ can save you up to $200 in your first year - even after paying for the audit.
