Why install a heat pump?

Lowest running costs saving you thousands

With a heat pump system, your annual hot water heating bill will be around $185 – that’s without a solar power system. Combine solar with a heat pump and your hot water heating bills will be next to nothing.In comparison, a resistive electric hot water system costs $820 a year to run and gas hot water is around $400. Over the 15-year life of your heat pump system, you’ll save between $6,300 to $9,220 on your hot water heating costs.

Attractive government rebates

Rebates for hot water heat pumps are reducing purchase costs dramatically. Heat pumps are now a financially attractive option – sometime even near-zero cost if you are upgrading from an old electric hot water system. Depending on where you live, and the type of system you’re upgrading from, you could be eligible for rebates worth $800 to almost $3,000.

Ideal for homes with rooftop solar

When powered by solar electricity, heat pump systems generate hot water for free. With low solar feed-in tariffs, it’s much better to use your surplus solar to power your heat pump than export it to the grid. Think of your solar-powered heat pump system as a solar energy storage system. Economically and environmentally, it makes total sense.

High efficiency

Heat pump hot water systems operate at 300% efficiency or more. In other words, most heat pumps produce over 3 times as much energy as they take in. In contrast electric-resistive hot water systems have an efficiency of less than 100%.

Best for the environment

Heat pumps hot water systems are 70% more environmentally friendly than traditional electric storage systems (source Australian Energy Foundation). Heat pumps can lower your hot water heating’s carbon footprint by 70%. Heat pumps are also better than gas when it comes to the environment.

Hot Water Heat Pumps FAQs

If you’ve got an old electric hot water system in Canberra, upgrading to a heat pump hot water system is a no-brainer. That’s because your hot water energy costs will reduce by around 80%, depending on the type of heat pump hot water system installed. And that’s even before combining your heat pump with a rooftop solar system. What’s more, upgrading from a conventional electric hot water system can attract the highest government rebates.

You’ll also be doing the environment a big favour. Traditional electric hot water systems release 4.75 tonnes of greenhouse gases annually, making them the worst CO2 polluter out of all the hot water systems. In contrast, heat pumps release only 1.6 tonnes of greenhouse gases annually.

There are federal rebates available to all Australians, plus state-based incentives and interest-free loans in ACT, NSW, VIC, TAS, QLD, SA and WA.

We recommend Jinko, Risen, and LONGi panels for their proven efficiency, durability, and strong manufacturer warranties. These Tier 1 brands are widely trusted in Australia and supported locally for faster service and peace of mind.

Most solar panels last 25—30 years, with warranties to match. You can expect reliable performance and savings for decades with quality panels and a professional install.
