I was originally going to have a running tab happening on the ‘reducing my debt’ page but the more I thought about it, the more I realised that I need to keep a log of just how much it is costing to retrofit Wit’s End to make it more sustainable. So here we go (arggghhh, I’m not sure The Husband should see this page!)
Solar Hot water system: $1430 (full govt rebate) Solar Gain
PhotoVoltaric Panels: $1210 (full govt rebate) Solar Gain
Garden lattice screen (2 meters high x 5 meters wide) to block off the strong Westerly sun from the seating area $300
Solar oven: $295 from Rainbow Power company
Earth garden beds from www.rainfilltanks.com.au I bought the 3mx1.5m bed $311
One more large earth garden bed from above $311
Two smaller beds $230
one round bed $90
Soil from Greenlife soil company $300
Double glazing for the master bedroom. $2500 bought from http://www.duoglass.com.au/ May I just say that we got the most professional and service from this company and I have no hesitation in recommending their product and workmanship.
