ENERGY ENGINEERING
Energy-efficient construction implies the use of low-energy processes to build structures that consume little-to-no energy, especially during their daily routine. Energy efficiency refers to several methods that help the building in which they are contained use less energy while still giving users the same experience they would have had if it was a less efficient structure.
For example, some of these methods include certain building materials designed to maintain a comfortable temperature inside without turning on any heaters or air conditioners.
SMC Design Studio has a special passion for energy-efficient construction. It is fascinating to see how fast the world is moving in this area and hpow many new ideas, innovation is developed both in New Zealand and overseas. We are committed to the idea of using “green” building materials which means making sure that you’re using the best technology to get things done in the most sustainable ways possible so that your CO2 emissions are lower and better for everyone.

SMC Design Studio is committed to the idea of energy conservation.
We use technology to measure energy efficiency and develop solutions based on facts.
Five green building technologies that are being used in home construction and renovation today are:
- a radiant floor installation,
- a gray water recycling system,
- solar power,
- geothermal heating,
- and energy efficient windows.
These systems working together can achieve an owner’s important goals including conservation of energy and water, and utility bill reductions.
