Have solar panels?

Schedule your heat pump to run during the day and your hot water running cost drops to near zero. Most Victorian retailers now pay as little as 2–3c/kWh feed-in — that solar is worth almost nothing exported. Far better to use it to heat your water for free.

💡 VEU, STC & SolarVic rebates already in the from $999 price. Gas-to-heat-pump gets the maximum VEU rebate — we handle all paperwork.

Based on: Victorian gas Step 1 tariff 6.1c/MJ · 8 min shower · 55c/kWh electricity

Why the Emerald 270L

Get off gas for less than $1,000

The most affordable gas replacement in Melbourne

After all rebates, no other heat pump installation in Melbourne comes close to $999. The gas-to-heat-pump VEU rebate makes this possible.

~$1,000 annual saving from day one

Gas hot water costs ~$1,200/year. This system costs ~$180–$200/year to run. The payback period on a $999 install is under 12 months.

Solar Soaker — free hot water if you have panels

Automatically runs on your surplus solar generation. If you have solar, your hot water running cost drops to near zero.

Gas prices only go up — lock in your saving now

Every year you stay on gas, the gap between what you pay and what a heat pump costs widens. There's no better time to switch.
