Solar and batteries, heat pumps, ducted reverse cycle and EV charging, designed as one system and installed by our own A-Grade electricians across Ashburton and Glen Iris and Ashwood. About 50 minutes from our depot in Somerville, rebates applied before you see the price.
Ashburton sits in the City of Monash area, about 41 km and 50 minutes from our Somerville depot, next to Glen Iris, Ashwood and Malvern East. Most of the housing went up between the 1960s and the 1980s: brick veneer on a slab or stumps, a ducted gas heater in the roof and a gas storage tank against the side wall. It is the most common kind of house we electrify, and the one where the savings are largest.
Because Ashburton is on mains gas and inside the VEU area, the typical order of works is heating and hot water first for the rebates and the running-cost drop, then solar and a battery sized to the new electric load, then the cooktop, then the gas meter abolished. We plan the whole sequence at the first inspection so nothing has to be redone.
We have been working in Ashburton and around Glen Iris, Ashwood and Malvern East for years. Site inspections are free, the quote is fixed with every rebate already applied, and the same in-house crew does the electrical, refrigeration and plumbing. If you are weighing up where to start, our home electrification page walks through the order, or call and we will tell you straight for your house.
Ordered by what pays back fastest in Ashburton's housing: heating and hot water first, then solar and battery sized to the new electric load.
Replacing a 20-plus-year-old ducted gas heater with a Braemar or Mitsubishi reverse cycle unit on the existing ducts is the job we do most in Ashburton. The house gets cooling for the first time, the gas bill drops and the VEU discount comes off the install. Where ducts are not practical, split systems from Panasonic, Mitsubishi or Haier cover the living areas and bedrooms.
Heating & Cooling across MelbourneHeat pump hot water is the easiest electrification win in Ashburton: one visit, old gas or electric tank out, Reclaim or iStore heat pump in, gas capped, VEU discount and STCs on the quote. Timed to run through the middle of the day it heats almost entirely on solar.
Hot Water Systems across MelbourneAshburton roofs are mostly tile, unshaded and facing somewhere useful, so solar is straightforward. A standard block takes 6.6kW to 10kW; we size to your usage and to the gas appliances you are replacing. Sigenergy, Tesla Powerwall or Sungrow batteries cover the evening peak, and we lodge the Solar Victoria rebate and loan and the federal battery discount for you.
Solar & Battery across MelbourneWe plan the whole switch for a Ashburton home from one site inspection: what goes first for the fastest payback, what the solar needs to be sized for once the gas appliances are electric, and when the meter comes off. One crew for all of it.
Home Electrification across MelbourneOnce heating and hot water are electric, the cooktop is the last gas appliance in most Ashburton kitchens and the reason the supply charge keeps arriving. We supply and install the induction cooktop, run the dedicated circuit and cap the gas, usually in half a day, with the VEU discount applied.
Induction Cooktops across MelbourneEV charging in Ashburton starts with the switchboard. Many of the 1970s boards need a breaker or RCD upgrade for a 32A charger circuit, which we include in the fixed price. Solar-aware charging is set up on the day.
EV Chargers across MelbourneAshburton has a steady rental market, and we do the two-yearly electrical safety checks Victorian rental providers need, smoke alarm and switchboard compliance, and the heat pump and split system upgrades landlords are asked for. Per-property reports and tenant access handled by us.

Yes. Ashburton is inside the VEU area, so heat pump hot water, reverse cycle heating and cooling and induction cooktops all attract discounts, with the largest when you are replacing gas. We apply them on the quote.
Usually the ducted heater or the hot water unit, whichever is older. Both carry the largest running costs and the largest VEU discounts, and both are one-visit jobs.
Usually within the week, often sooner. Our depot is in Somerville, about 50 minutes from Ashburton.
