30+ years manufacturing • 900+ buildings delivered • 8+ NatHERS stars
Net Zero Plus canberra
Canberra‘s climate is unforgiving on a poorly built home: sub-zero winter mornings, 40°C summer afternoons, and the widest daily temperature swings of any Australian capital.
Most Canberra homes leak air at 10–15 air changes an hour — effectively glorified tents that bleed heat in winter, overheat in summer, and cost a fortune to run.
Net Zero Plus builds prefab homes for Canberra that stay comfortable and cheap to run all year.
Why panelised prefab suits Canberra
Our panelised homes are manufactured off-site in a factory-controlled environment and assembled to watertight lock-up in a matter of days — a real advantage through a Canberra winter, when weather stalls conventional sites. Factory precision means less waste, fewer defects, and predictable cost and quality. What has been standard building practice in Europe for 30+ years, engineered for ACT conditions.
Performance you can measure, not assume
Every Net Zero Plus home is engineered to reach 8 stars or better — and full passive-house standard where you want it — regardless of the block:
- Walls of R4–5 and roof and floor systems around R7 (a typical Australian wall is just R2.5)
- Triple-glazed European windows with U-values of 0.8–1.2 (standard windows are 3.0 or higher)
- Airtight construction verified by blower-door testing
- Heat-recovery ventilation delivering constant, filtered fresh air
The result is a home that holds 20–25°C with barely any heating or cooling — the range our bodies are most comfortable and healthy in — with low running costs and resilience through heatwaves and blackouts.
