Green Building - Money in the bank

A & J  Johnson Constructions Pty Ltd is looking forward to the future. We have upgraded our sustainability knowledge base and we can now advise you of the best choices to make your new home sustainable. Whether you want modern or traditional designs, we can help you cut through all the jargon.

"We now have twelve months of data, and so far the results are:

§ Water consumption is reduced from 510 L/day to 372 L/day (27% reduction)

§ Energy consumption is reduced from an average of 31.2 kWh/day to 21.5 kWh/day (31% reduction)

Considering the new house is about 70% larger than our previous home, this is pretty good going. Allowing for the difference in floor area, we are now using 59% less power per square metre.

It’s great to see all the “green” features in the house are doing what they are supposed to."

Mr & Mrs Jobe - Clients 2009

We have found that many of our clients are being bombarded with terms like "eco" and "green". This can sometimes be very confusing. We keep up to date with the latest products and innovations then carefully examine the hidden cost associated and recommend only the very best in products and suppliers. When you design your next project we are happy to explain in plain terms what your ongoing impact on consumption of power, water and Co2 impact will be. We really believe that by investing in the future of your home and its low impact on resources, this is money in the bank as far as improving the value of your most precious asset and our planet.
