BASIX & NatHERS for Wilton homes

Wilton is a major new growth centre in Wollondilly, with releases like Wilton Greens delivering thousands of new homes. Sitting higher and cooler than Sydney, its climate shifts the focus toward winter solar access and insulation to reach a 7-star NatHERS rating.

New homes, duplexes and granny flats in Wilton need a BASIX certificate and NatHERS assessment for the DA or CDC. Wilton sits at a higher, cooler elevation than the Sydney basin, so winter heating demand carries more weight and we prioritise solar access, insulation and draught sealing.

What matters when building in Wilton

  • High insulation and draught sealing for cooler tableland winters
