BASIX Certificates
Certificates for Residential Developments in NSW
Our BASIX Consultants are highly experienced in tackling even the most challenging designs and large multi unit projects. We use NatHERS thermal modeling in preparation of every BASIX Certificate even for the smallest single dwelling projects.
BASIX or Building Sustainability Index is a government mandatory sustainability initiative for NSW residential developments that needs to be provided as part of a Development Applications. BASIX overrides the Volume 2 requirements of the BCA and provides a more robust and informed evaluation of the building. To learn more please visit our BASIX page.
BCA Section J
Reports for Commercial Developments
By completing hundreds of BCA Section J Compliance Reports both by Deemed to Satisfy solution as well as JV3 alternative solutions our team at Eco Certificates guarantees council approval for compliance with energy efficiency requirements of the Building Code of Australia Volume 1, section J.
Building Code of Australia Section J, Energy Efficiency, provides energy efficiency compliance requirements for BCA standard classes 2 to 9 buildings. A BCA Section J Report must be compiled for every non residential development across Australia to demonstrate that the development's complies with the requirements of Section J of the BCA. To learn more please visit our BCA Section J page.
NatHERS Assessment
NatHERS Thermal Comfort Assessment for Residential Developments
By using the latest version of BERS Pro second generation NatHERS thermal comfort assessment software our assessors can model and simulate the thermal comfort performance of even the most complicated and challenging building designs. We have thousands of different dwellings in our resume and there is simply no design complexity which we have not seen yet.
National House Energy Rating Scheme or NatHERS is the national government regulatory framework that governs the thermal simulation of residential developments addressed in the BCA. To perform a NatHERS thermal assessment an ABSA Accredited Assessor or a BDAV Accredited Assessor must simulate the building with a NatHERS thermal simulation software package.
