Insulating in the Bay of Plenty
Why insulation performs differently in the Bay of Plenty
Tauranga and the coastal Bay of Plenty sit in H1 climate zone 1, while Rotorua inland sits in zone 4. That is a real difference across one territory, and it is worth checking which side of it your place falls on before deciding how much insulation to fit. Blown loosefill fills the cavity evenly and gets into the awkward places batts leave open, which is where most of the heat actually goes.

H1/AS1 moved to its sixth edition on 27 November 2025 and the schedule method was removed, so required R-values now come from the calculation method rather than a fixed table. Read the R-value guide or use the insulation calculators to work out what your build needs.
The Bay of Plenty is in Healthy Homes zone 1 and 2. Every rental property must meet these minimums above and below all living spaces.
Walls are not covered by the standard, and in an uninsulated older home they are where most heat is lost. See retrofit wall insulation.
