Victorian Energy Rebates. Your Questions Answered........
Do I need to upgrade my existing ductwork?
It depends, majority of the time a full ductwork replacement is required, however, if you have existing add on cooling you may not need to. Contact us today to find out.
What is a multi-split system?
A multi split system allows multiple indoor head units to be installed in different rooms throughout your home, all connected to just one outdoor condenser unit.
The main benefit is that you can heat and cool multiple rooms independently without needing several outdoor units, saving valuable outdoor space, and keeping the exterior of your home neat and uncluttered.
Do I need to decommission my existing gas ducted heater?
Yes, to be eligible for the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) rebate, your existing gas ducted heater or gas wall heater must be decommissioned and removed and replaced with an eligible electric heating and cooling system.
What is a ducted reverse cycle system?
A ducted reverse cycle system is a fully electric heating and cooling system that provides year-round comfort through vents located in either you’re ceiling or floor, similar to a traditional gas ducted heater or evaporative cooler.
The system consists of an indoor unit, installed either in the roof space or underneath the floor, and an outdoor condenser unit. These work together to provide both heating and cooling through the same ductwork and vents.
Unlike traditional ducted heating or evaporative cooling, a reverse cycle system allows you to heat your home in winter and cool it in summer, all from one energy-efficient system!
