WELCOME TO OUR WEB SITE!
One of our flag ship builds the Lethbridge Winery and Residence both built using jumbo straw bales:
HAPPY BALING AND LET US HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE MANY NEW STRAW BALE HOMES BUILT DURING 2012.
If you are interested in Huff ‘n’ Puff Constructions conducting a straw bale building workshop on your own home here is what you can expect to happen:
DAY ONE OF THE WORKSHOP NOTE THE EXCELLENT PREPARATION
DAY FIVE OF THE WORKSHOP AND THE TRUSSES ARE GOING UP!
WHY STRAW BALE? ONE ANSWER: SUPER INSULATION = LOW POWER BILLS:
Surge in price of electricity:
POWER bills in Australia are surging at eight times the rate of price rises across the industrialised world.
A new electricity cost analysis by the International Energy Agency reveals that the average price rose 3.3 per cent in real terms across industrialised countries last year — 6.2 per cent for industry and 1.7 per cent for households. See: http://www.solarchoice.net.au
But electricity bills for Australian households rose 13.6 per cent in the same period, based on Australian Bureau of Statistics data.
Our own straw bale home in hot summers and cool winters does not have an air conditioner and only one small natural gas heater. Let us show you how you can pay for your straw bale home over 30 years by reducing your heating and cooling bills. Call us or email us any time:
