Window Energy Rating

The Australasian Window Council Inc. (AWC) has rated arange of typical windows for their energy efficiency and performance in thermal insulation, noise and comfort.

Look for the WER rating sticker or ask about the rating of windows you are installing.

Energy Rating for windows is here to stay. The federal government's Australian Greenhouse Office is helping to underwrite WERS as part of its commitment to improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse emissions from the built environment.

Home resale value, comfort and amenity is improved by the use of high-performance windows. Gone are the days when windows were just a commodity to be sold on price alone. In addition, WERS will be referenced by the Building Code of Australia.
