Did you know...

People who lost their homes in the February bushfires can now claim the Federal Government's $1600 solar hot water rebate. The rebate is not usually available for people building new homes, but the Government has made an exception for homes destroyed in the fires. Solar hot water can save a family up to $700 on their energy bills and is one of the most simple and effective ways to make your home more energy efficient.

For information visit www.environment.gov.au/energyefficiency or call the Energy Efficient Homes Package Hotline on 1800 808 571.
