NATHERS CERTIFICATION
NATIONWIDE HOUSE ENERGY RATING SCHEME (NATHERS)
NatHERS is the Thermal Comfort Index of a BASIX assessment. It uses thermal simulations to assess the potential thermal comfort of Australian homes on a scale of zero to 10 stars. The more stars, the less likely the occupants will need cooling or heating to stay comfortable.
The rating depends on:
the layout of the home
the construction of its roof, walls, windows and floor
the orientation of windows and shading to the sun’s path and local breezes
how well these suit the local climate.
BASIXMAX has a team of ABSA Accredited Assessors and uses the AccuRate or BERS thermal simulation software to provide a specialised assessment service to designers, architects and householders in the design and planning of a new home.
