Jade 909 – 9 Star, Carbon Neutral Display Home Right Homes continually strives to be at the forefront of building homes that are solar passive/sustainable and energy efficient. All current staff at Right Homes are Greensmart Professionals and are passionate about demonstrating that energy efficiency and high star ratings can be affordable. With this in mind and together with our partners Jade Projects and Think Brick Australia, we have constructed our own display home, the Jade 909, situated at “The Vale” Display Village, Wesley Way, Aveley. From the street it might look like any modern new home but in fact, this home represents the future of sustainability. This revolutionary, 3 x 2 family home boasts a 9 star energy efficiency rating and is also carbon neutral – producing more energy than it requires over a year! It incorporates Greensmart principles, water conservation – achieving a 76% reduction in water use, energy efficiency – achieving a 119% reduction in energy use, waste recycling, waterwise gardens and is designed for people of all abilities. The Jade 909 has been constructed using recyclable building materials with the best thermal mass qualities and quality energy efficient appliances and fittings throughout adding cost saving benefits to future occupants. The home will be open for viewing from Saturday 10th April 2010 at Aveley. Opening days will be Saturday and Sunday from 1.00pm - 5.00 pm. Come and visit the Jade 909 and talk to us about your individual designs and experience sustainable living.

OTHER SUSTAINABLE PROJECTS Right Homes endeavours to achieve a minimum seven star energy rating (using BERS) benchmark for all of our home designs and have been busy designing and constructing homes that are all 7.5 and above at an affordable price. Some of our homes include: Single 3 x 2 Rear Strata home. The orientation of the lot and the fact that it was a rear strata, meant that a lot of consideration had to be given to the initial design of the home. The home achieved an 8.5 star energy rating and was designed to maximize the use of nature to heat and cool the home without artificial means. This home was designed to be affordable, accessable, energy efficient and have low water use which will reduce the operational cost of the home during the expected lifecycle of the home.  
Addition/Renovations – This large renovation was constructed of double brick and tile and achieved an 8 star rating (using BERS). Future needs were considered with an internal design to suit families with babies to older occupants. Built as a new wing to accommodate ageing parents, it complements the original home and enhances the streetscape. This addition was designed to offer clients an affordable, efficient and solar passive home combining stylish features and sustainable technologies. This home was a finalist in the 2010 Master Builders Excellence Awards for Renovations/Additions and also a Winner for Excellence in Energy Efficiency.  
Jade 808 Sustainable Home Designing energy efficient homes is not difficult. It is about harnessing the natural energies, wind and sun, orientating the home to capture these, insulating and shading wisely, and choosing the best building materials. One of our associated past projects with Jade Projects was the Jade 808 – 8 star energy rated sustainable home, achieved a 72% reduction in water use and a 76% reduction in energy compared with the state average for a typical WA home of similar size. This Display home incorporated a passive solar design, solar hot water system, photovoltaic solar system and offered grey water recycling and waterwise landscaping amongst many other features. The home was built using double brick construction partly because of the low maintenance and durability factor, but mainly because they have such great thermal mass. Thermal mass is a unique quality of clay bricks. Brick helps smooth out inside air temperatures by storing and releasing heat, reducing the need for artificial heating and cooling. We all know we need to reduce our carbon footprint and we know sustainable homes are the right way to go … Give us a call today to discuss sustainable living.
