12 green homes in Ballarat will open their doors to the public for the ninth annual Sustainable House Day on Sunday 12 September. The day is a showcase of our country’s most environmentally sustainable and innovative homes that invest in renewable energy, recycling and other practices designed to reduce pollution.

More and more savvy homeowners are realising the benefits of investing in sustainable living technology in their homes which not only presents energy savings but financial savings too. Sustainable House Day provides a unique opportunity for people to meet with home owners who have ‘been there, done that’ and are able to provide unbiased advice about their own personal experience. There is nothing more valuable!
