Hot Water Heat Pumps

Group Discount

There’s strength in numbers. And there are also discounts in numbers!

If you want a hot deal on a hot water heat pump, move fast and register your interest before 30th April.

Don’t miss out on your discount.

*Registering does not lock you in to a purchase

As part of our work at the Queenstown Electrification Accelerator, we’re looking for different ways to make electrification easier and cheaper. One way we’re doing this is by harnessing the community's collective purchasing power to get group discounts with suppliers and we’ve managed to get a few good deals on hot water heat pumps.

That means we can offer you around $1,000 off the retail price for products from Reclaim Energy, Daikin, Emerald and Stiebel Eltron (see below for specs and prices). The current intake for these discounts closes on 30th April, so feel free to register your interest. It's also important to note that signalling your interest does not lock you into a purchase.

All-in-One Systems

Also known as integrated systems, all-in-one systems combine the heat pump and hot water cylinder into a single unit. Most all-in-one systems are designed to be outdoors, however some (such as Stiebel Eltron's option below) can be installed inside as well. They tend to cheaper than split systems.

Split Systems

Split systems separate the heat pump from the hot water cylinder, which offers more flexibility in layout. Generally, compared to all-in-one systems, split systems are known to be more efficient, be better in cold climates, and have higher recovery rates (which means they heat water faster).
