From March 2009, all new houses and units in Queensland, and those undertaking major renovations, must achieve a minimum 5 star energy equivalent rating under the new
Sustainable Housing Regulations. This means new dwellings will be required at a minimum to install 4-Star Water Efficient Labeling Standards (WELS) Scheme rated toilets, and 3-Star WELS rated taps, mixers and showers.
With a stable of well-known and trusted bathroom and kitchen brands, including
Caroma,
Dorf,
Fowler and
Stylus, Caroma Dorf offer the trade community an entire product solution, enabling them to comply with the new regulations so they can supply, install and specify with confidence. As Australia’s leading developer of advanced water saving products and fixtures for sustainable living, Caroma Dorf products are designed specifically for the Australian market.
Steve McDonald for Caroma Dorf said, “Caroma Dorf has developed a portfolio of award-winning environmentally friendly, advanced water saving products and energy efficient fixtures for both residential and commercial applications which comply with the regulations, so we can offer a hassle free solution for tradesmen in Queensland.
“The new regulations are a great move by the Queensland Government. By replacing heavy water using products, builders, plumbers and architects can contribute to a greener future by assisting Queenslanders to reduce their energy and water wastage” Mr McDonald added.
