Common Questions

What can be weather sealed under the VEU program?

Depending on your property and eligibility, supported measures can include external doors, windows, ceiling or wall exhaust fans, wall vents, chimneys and evaporative cooler vents.

Is weather sealing safe for homes with gas appliances?

Weather sealing must be approached carefully where certain open-flued or flueless gas appliances are installed, because adequate ventilation may be required for safe operation. Some homes with these appliances are not eligible — suitability is checked before any work is undertaken.

Can renters get weather sealing done?

Yes. Private rental properties may participate, subject to program requirements and property suitability.

How does weather sealing help with heating and cooling?

Reducing draughts helps prevent cold air entering during winter and conditioned air escaping during summer, so your heating and cooling system can work more effectively.

What's the process from assessment to installation?

We assess your property, check eligibility and gas-appliance safety requirements, recommend suitable measures, then install approved measures in accordance with applicable requirements.
