Did you know that if your carpet is not glued to the floor (e.g. it is tacked down) then it is not covered under your dwelling. It is part of your contents or landlords furnishings. Have you accounted for this in your sum insured? 03-12-2006 more >>

The Home Energy Rating Scheme (HERS) has been developed to make New Zealanders aware of the energy performance of their houses. HERS was launched on a voluntary basis in December 2007.
What is a HERS?
HERS will be applied to homes in a similar way to the star rating that is currently seen on appliances. An accredited assessor will inspect the home to look at its energy performance over a range of criteria. Using an energy rating tool, the home will be given a home energy rating that reflects its performance. The scheme will make the right information available to enable people to make informed choices about what they want from their homes.
