A smarter electric hot water system
A standard electric storage tank heats water with an element, which uses a lot of electricity. A heat pump uses warmth from the air instead, so it needs much less power to heat the same water.
Many homes can put the heat pump where the old tank was. Eligible households can get a Solar Victoria rebate and a separate VEU discount on the upgrade.

How the upgrade works
We check your existing tank, connections, power supply and space. Then we remove the old tank, install the heat pump and connect it safely.
- Site check before quoting
- Old tank disconnected and removed
- Heat pump installed and tested
Solar Victoria rebate and VEU discount
Eligible households can receive a Solar Victoria hot water rebate for an approved heat pump, plus a separate VEU discount when it replaces an eligible electric system.
We check both for your home and show each discount separately in your quote.
Lower running costs
Because a heat pump moves heat from the air rather than making it with an element, it uses much less electricity than a standard electric tank.

Heat water with your solar
If you have solar panels, many heat pumps can be timed to run during the day on the power you make.
Control from your phone
Some heat pumps, such as Emerald, can be monitored and adjusted in an app.
Choose from leading brands
We install Neopower, Rinnai, Emerald, Powerbay and Midea heat pumps, and help you pick the model and size that suit your home.

How much can a heat pump save?
It depends on your household and electricity tariff. A heat pump typically uses much less electricity than a standard electric storage tank to heat the same water.
Is there a rebate for replacing electric hot water?
Eligible households can receive a Solar Victoria hot water rebate and a separate VEU discount for replacing an eligible electric system.
Can the heat pump go where my old tank is?
Often, yes. A heat pump needs airflow and service access, so we check the location first.
Will a heat pump work in winter?
Heat pumps are designed to heat water in cool weather, but performance differs by model. We choose an approved unit suited to your site.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the model, tank size and installation work. We give you a written quote with the rebates shown.
Do you have finance options?
Yes. You can pay over time with Brighte, subject to credit approval. Fees, terms and conditions apply. See finance options.
