What makes our build eco friendly

Besides our house being built from straw bales, which has amazing insulation properties, we are incorporating the following;

  • Solar Panels from Clear Solar
  • Biolytix is supplying us with our Black & Grey Water system.
  • Pyramid Power, in Pambula, is helping us with our Solar Hot water & Install. They are in our area and I feel know the best system for our climate. They are also installing our Biolytix System too.
  • Rhino Tanks is supplying us with a 126,000L Tk
  • We are going for a natural roof insulation, probably wool or shredded paper. We have not chosen anyone as yet there.
  • Straw Bale, our walls are coming from Trent at straw.com.au from Coleambally, NSW. It is a bit far away but has the best straw to build with.

We are so excited to start our build. Should not be long until we receive our plans too which I hope to share with you all too.
