Are you looking forward to renting out your property? As a landlord, you will want to pass on the full cost of water consumption to your tenant. To be able to do this, the easiest and the quickest way is to attain a Water Efficiency Certificate for the state of Queensland, from your plumber. Water Efficiency Certificates have been developed by the Master Plumbers Association of Queensland and it is the responsibility of the landlord to request a Water Efficiency Certificate to be issued for your rental property.
Water Efficiency Certificate
A Water Efficiency Certificate certifies that your rental property meets the water and energy usage requirements outlined by the Residential Tenancies Authority (RTA). This certificate can only be provided by licensed and registered plumbers, just like our team at Redshaw Plumbing & Drainage. In order to attain the Water Efficiency Certificate and ensure your property is water-efficient, your rental property must meet the conditions set by the Queensland Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Regulation 2009. It states that your property must be:
- Individually metered
- Toilets must be dual flush, having maximum flush volumes of 3.5 liters for half flush, and 6.5 liters for a full flush, with a maximum average flush volume of 4 liters (based on the average to 1 full flush to 4 half flushes).
- Showerheads and all internal cold water taps (excluding those serving a bath) must deliver a maximum flow rate of 9 liters per minute.
