Bendigo's Solar Experts
Electric Heat Pump Hot Water in Bendigo
Tanks from 160L to 400L, set up to heat on your own solar in the middle of the day.
What Is A Heat Pump Hot Water System?
A heat pump hot water system draws warmth out of the surrounding air and uses it to heat the water in its tank, the same principle as a fridge running in reverse. Because it moves heat rather than generating it with an element, it uses a fraction of the electricity of a conventional electric hot water unit.
Our range covers households of every size: Aquatech Rapid and Dynamic systems at 220L and 270L, Haier Monoblock units from 200L to 330L, and Reclaim systems from 160L to 400L.
Heat pumps are the natural partner for solar. Set yours to run through the middle of the day and it heats your water on power your own panels produced, which is when it costs you the least.

Your Questions, Answered
How much less power does a heat pump use?
A lot less than a conventional electric element, because it moves heat from the air instead of generating it from scratch. Pair it with solar and daytime heating and your hot water can cost very little to run.
What size do I need?
It comes down to how many people are in the house. Our range runs from 160L up to 400L across Aquatech, Haier and Reclaim, and we will size it in your assessment so you never run cold.
Do heat pumps work on cold Bendigo mornings?
Yes. The units we install are built to keep working in cold air, and sizing the tank properly means the water is heated and waiting before you need it.
Can it run off my solar system?
That is exactly how we set it up. Timed to run through the middle of the day, your heat pump becomes one of the best uses for your excess solar power.
Is there a rebate for switching?
Up to $1,000 for eligible energy-efficient hot water systems, listed with the other current programs in the rebates section below. We handle the application for you.
