Residential Insulation Requirements

Your property is required by law to meet EECA compliance standards (Energy Efficiency Conservation Authority). Should your property require upgraded insulation to meet new Insulation Requirements (NZ Tenancy Services T30 (10/16), MB13712), Parkit can assist with provision of cost effective solutions including initial assessment, installation or upgrade. To ensure you get the best price, our process includes obtaining 3rdparty quotes. If required our service may extend to project management,  at negligible cost to our owners. The landlord must disclose whether there is insulation in the rental home, where it is, and what type and condition – so the tenant can make an informed decision. Good quality insulation helps keep the heat in during winter and out during summer.

A landlord who does not make a complete insulation statement or includes anything they know to be false or misleading is committing an unlawful act and may be liable for a penalty of up to $500.

Insulation will be compulsory in all rental homes from 1 July 2019
