7-STAR ENERGY RATED HOMES – ACHIEVING MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY & COMFORT

At Kömmerling, we understand the importance of creating homes that not only provide comfort but also contribute to sustainability and energy efficiency. That’s why we are proud to offer a range of window and door systems that help homeowners and builders achieve the coveted 7-Star Energy Rating for their homes. Our high-performance uPVC systems are designed to enhance thermal insulation, reduce energy consumption, and improve overall home comfort.

What is a 7-Star Energy Rating?

The 7-Star Energy Rating is an Australian standard used to evaluate the energy efficiency of a home. A higher star rating indicates better energy performance and lower environmental impact. Homes that achieve a 7-Star rating are designed to require less energy for heating and cooling, providing significant savings on energy bills while reducing the building’s carbon footprint.

To achieve a 7-Star rating, homes must be designed with a combination of:

  • Optimal Insulation: High-quality insulation in walls, ceilings, and floors to minimize energy loss.
  • Energy-Efficient Windows and Doors: High-performance windows and doors that provide excellent thermal insulation and airtight seals.
  • Passive Solar Design: Strategic placement of windows to take advantage of natural sunlight and warmth.
  • Ventilation: Proper airflow to ensure good air quality and temperature regulation.

A 7-Star rated home is considered energy-efficient, environmentally responsible, and built for long-term sustainability, providing homeowners with year-round comfort.
