Warm water.
Without making all
the heat from scratch.
Take warmth from the air
The system absorbs available heat from the air outside, including in cooler conditions.
Transfer it into your water
A compressor and heat exchanger move that energy into the stored water.
Keep comfort ready for you
An insulated tank stores hot water for showers, the kitchen and everyday use.
Every home has a different starting point.
Choose your existing hot water type to see what an assessment should consider.
Move beyond the old element.
Replacing a conventional electric storage unit? A suitable heat pump can use substantially less electricity by transferring heat instead of producing all of it with an element.

A good fit balances household demand, recovery time, climate, space and the way you use hot water.
Start with your routine.
Tell us about shower length, the number of bathrooms and whether you use most of your hot water at the same time. A smaller household can still have high peak demand.
Household size is a starting point, not a tank-size calculation.
Plan around the busy moments.
Morning showers, evening baths and kitchen use can overlap. Discuss tank capacity, hot water recovery and when you typically use the most water.
Household size is a starting point, not a tank-size calculation.
Make space for higher demand.
A larger household may need more storage, recovery capacity or a different system arrangement. A site assessment helps match the installation to your busiest days.
Household size is a starting point, not a tank-size calculation.

A little clarity.
A better decision.
Start with the questions that matter for your home.
Will a heat pump work during a Victorian winter?
Heat pumps can operate in cooler weather, but efficiency and recovery time depend on the outdoor temperature and the specific model. Discuss the product’s operating range and installation location during assessment.
Can I use it with my rooftop solar?
A suitable system and schedule can make use of daytime solar electricity. Your installer should help assess controls, your solar generation and household hot water demand.
How do I know which tank size I need?
Consider household size, showers, baths, simultaneous use and hot water recovery. Tank litres alone do not determine whether a system will meet your peak demand.
Does my old system have to be 10 years old?
Do not assume a blanket 10-year rule. VEU and Solar Homes have different requirements. Eligibility needs to be checked against your current system, property, selected product and the rules for the program being used.
Is an upgrade free under the VEU program?
A residential customer contribution applies to VEU hot water upgrades, and installation costs can vary. Ask for an itemised quote showing the product, installation, available discount and your total contribution.
What about noise, warranty and maintenance?
Sound levels and warranty terms vary by model. Placement, clearance and regular maintenance also matter. Confirm the exact product warranty, installation warranty and care instructions before accepting the quote.
