7-Star Energy Efficiency
7-Star Energy Efficient Homes
The new whole-of-home design standards bring you smarter spaces for annual comfort. At Fairhaven, we believe in providing peace of mind and certainty, which is why we include NatHERS 7-Star Whole-of-Home energy efficiency ratings to all orientations and all standard options, across all standard house designs.
There is value in building a 7-Star home; From lower energy bills, to lower energy usage and less emissions. All Fairhaven Homes come with the below 7-Star rated inclusions as standard.
DOUBLE GLAZING
SOLAR PV PANEL SYSTEM
HEAT PUMP HOT WATER SYSTEM
DUCTED HEATING
We have designed a range of inclusions that ensure the thermal performance of your home achieves the required rating whilst also looking at the functionality and future of your home.
With installation of solar PV panel systems, each home sees an offset to above-budget energy usage.
IMPROVED INSULATION
QUALITY APPLIANCES
ENERGY-EFFICIENT LIGHTING
Improved insulation to ceiling and wall, double glazed Low-E windows throughout, heat pump hot water service, gas ducted heating, solar PV panel system and inverter as well as offering all our standard home designs with a 7-Star Whole-of-Home rating on any orientation.
The Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme provides energy ratings to new dwellings, this ensures our homes are built for comfort.
The latest change brings Whole-of-Home calculations which budgets an annual energy usage to individual homes. NatHERS energy assessments provides every home design with a star rating out of 10, based on how its building design addresses energy efficiency.
Energy ratings are assessed using models that predict the amount of artificial heating and cooling your home will need to be comfortable all year round, taking into consideration;
• Heating
• Cooling
• Hot water systems
• Lighting
• Pool/spa pumps
• Fixed appliances
• Plug-in appliances
• Energy generation
• Storage
This is in addition to the homes construction type, materials, glazing and insulation, that 6-Star was modeled against.
These changes will lower energy usage and bills for Australian homes, which typically sees up to 80% of an average Victorian’s energy usage captured through hot water, heating and cooling.
By building a home with a NatHERS assessment rating, you’re ensuring you consume less energy for the general running of your home, reducing your carbon footprint, which helps to conserve our environment.

Achieving the most natural way to heat and cool your home will reduce energy requirements for supplementary heating and cooling.
The sun’s direction can have a major impact when building for comfort and energy efficiency. Placing your home in the most suitable orientation on your block is achieved by looking at the sun’s path and how well the home utilises it to either cool or heat the key living areas.
In Victoria, we are known for our colder weather, which is why we need to achieve better efficiencies in the cooler months. To achieve this, we need to look for natural ways to heat the areas of your home that you use most.
Finding the optimal orientation.
In Winter, the sun rises in the East and sets in the West, while also being lower than it is in Summer. Due to this, we aim to ensure your living areas face towards the North, capturing the most sunlight throughout the day.
Taking inspiration from passive design methods and making the most of sunlight with North facing living areas, enables you to harness the natural power of the sun for heating and cooling during all seasons.
The optimal orientation of the below example would be living areas that face North or East.
Energy Efficiency
Insulation plays a crucial role in enhancing energy efficiency in homes by creating a barrier between the interior and exterior environments. Insulation helps regulate temperatures in your home and reduces the strain on your heating and cooling systems.
In Victoria, we can experience dramatic weather changes, which makes insulation all the more important for maintaining year-round comfort in your home. During Winter, heat in your home is commonly lost through your ceiling, walls and windows. If heat can escape that way, it can also enter your home during warmer periods.
7-Star energy ratings aim to support increased thermal resistance to control these effects. Fairhaven supports these standards across all of our home designs, with the use of improved insulation such as Glasswool R2.5 wall batts and R6.0 to ceiling batts as standard.
The greater the resistance (R-value), the better control of heat loss and energy savings, meaning your home won’t work as hard to maintain a temperature.
Better your R-value, better your heat retention
On average a homes heat loss can be up to
35% in your ceiling 40% through windows 25% through walls
Double glazing is a window technology that can significantly enhance energy efficiency in your home. Paired with improved insulation, your home gains an efficient thermal barrier. All of our home designs include double glazing as standard to achieve a NaTHERS 7-Star Whole-of-Home energy efficiency rating.
Double glazing consists of two glass panels bonded together, typically with a 6-20mm gas-filled gap in-between for improved insulation. This prevents excessive heat transfer between the interior and exterior of your home. Double glazed windows bring an array of benefits to your home, from energy savings to increased comfort and even improved soundproofing, which minimises external noise pollution, creating a more peaceful indoor environment.
Increase comfort
Lower energy bills
Condensation reduction
Noise reduction
For optimal efficiency, our windows also include a Low-E (low-emissivity) finish across our windows and sliding doors. This brings another layer of protection by applying a coating to one of the panels of glass for an added insulation barrier.
Heat Pumps utilise a refrigeration cycle that extracts heat from the environment, injecting into the system to then heat the water that is stored in the cylinder.
With lower running costs, less maintenance, longer life spans, reduced carbon emissions and lower energy consumption.
Ensuring all family sizes are looked after, we design all our homes to accommodate water usage at any time.
75% Using
Solar PV (photovoltaic) panel systems allow you to generate energy and reduce your purchased energy. PV is a non-mechanical device that converts sunlight directly into electricity.
Home designs will capture sunlight through the panels and provide power to your home, with any unused power going back into the grid. The inverter converts the energy output from the solar panels into usable electricity. Solar powered systems have been out of reach for some time for many due to cost or priorities.
Pending your electricity provider, a buy-back rate, also known as a feed-in tariff (FIT), could credit you for any unused electricity sent back to the grid. Should you require more power than available through your solar system, this is taken from the grid and charged accordingly.
