EcoBuilt Homes – Costing less to save more!
At EcoBuilt Homes we design and build houses that are both environmentally friendly and people-friendly too.
Designed for energy efficiency, an EcoBuilt Home harnesses the natural resources of sunlight, water, energy and air to create a home that is warm, comfortable and healthy to live in.
Whether you’re building new or enhancing an existing home, our team can work with you from concept designs through to plans and building. Site-specific for your unique section, your home will be designed for optimal use of the sun and enhanced by your choice of energy efficient building options that not only pay for themselves, they save you money too.
At EcoBuilt Homes we share our client’s eco-friendly values and work hard to deliver affordable, environmentally sound, energy-efficient living that is a pleasure to call home.
We wanted to prove to you the benefits of investing in features that make a house sustainable and energy efficient, so we moved our family of four in!
We invite you to join us in the comfort of a family home to view and experience an Ecobuilt Home for yourself.
Rain water storage
Rainwater is a free, perpetually-renewing water supply. Installing a rainwater tank is relatively simple and inexpensive, and the benefits are ongoing…
Water conservation
It can also be used for washing clothes, flushing the toilet, and – when properly treated or purified – for drinking and other household uses.
Ventilation
Warm air in the building can be allowed to rise and flow out upper openings to the outside, forcing cool outside air to be drawn into the building naturally through openings in the lower areas
Solar power and water
North facing solar panels to harness the sun’s energy to warm and heat your home and water.
