Heat-Pump Hot Water
For Victorian Homes

Heat-pump hot water install in a Victorian home

Hot Water · Victoria + NSW

Energy-Efficient. Government-Backed.

Government-backed energy-efficiency programs make it easier than ever to upgrade your existing electric tank. Through the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) and NSW Energy Saver Scheme (ESS), eligible homes can switch to a high-efficiency heat pump at heavily reduced cost — sometimes nothing out of pocket.

Our heat pump range uses smart, renewable technology to extract energy from the surrounding air and use it to heat your water. A heat pump only uses electricity to run the compressor (not to heat the water itself) which makes it dramatically more efficient than a standard electric tank.

Heat-pump systems have a reduced carbon footprint of around 70% compared to traditional electric resistance hot water — and you start saving from day one.

What Our Customers
Say About Us

Happy Solar Haven hot water customer

"Solar Haven made the heat-pump swap effortless. They checked our VEU eligibility in two minutes, booked the install for the following week, and we paid nothing out of pocket. Our hot water bill is unrecognisable. The whole job took about four hours and the crew left the laundry cleaner than they found it."
