Sustainable House Day Geelong returns this October, with a series of events designed to illuminate and inspire.
The popular annual event will see eight homes open to the public, displaying the designs, strategies, technology and retrofits that help them achieve sustainable living.
Participants will have the opportunity to meet with homeowners and experts to get practical advice on implementing tech and sustainable practices in their own homes.
The event will feature a number of sessions, including the event’s opening information seminar at the Geelong Library and Heritage Centre on October 12 and an industry breakfast at Deakin University on October 17.
“Sustainable House Day is the highlight of our events calendar, and this year we’re excited to be showcasing a brand new, 10-star energy rated home,” Mr Cowdell said.
“With only a small number of 10-star homes in Australia, this is a rare opportunity to see first hand what goes into a build of this standard.
“As well as this special home, we have a great cross-section of homes on display, including innovative Passivhaus designs, inspiring retrofits and renovations, all-electric, and a pre-retrofit home for those interested in understanding energy audits and sustainable home improvement options.
“I’d encourage you to head to the website to read about the homes being showcased this year, as they are a good example of what can be accomplished. With experts on hand to show you around, you’re guaranteed to learn and be inspired.”
