What we see in Beaconsfield homes

Most of Beaconsfield's housing is estate-built since the mid 2000s, in the City of Casey corridor about 30 minutes from Somerville. Good roofs, modern wiring and, in the newest streets, no gas connection to begin with. That makes Beaconsfield a solar, battery and EV suburb first, with heat pumps and induction for the earlier estates that were plumbed for gas.

Because Beaconsfield 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 Beaconsfield and around Berwick, Officer and Officer South 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.

What we do in Beaconsfield

Solar, EV and the all-electric package for Beaconsfield

For Beaconsfield's newer homes the order flips: solar, battery and EV charging first, heat pumps and induction for the earlier estates still on gas.

Solar in Beaconsfield is usually about getting it right rather than getting it at all: bigger arrays for the all-electric load, a battery sized to the evening, and an inverter that can take an EV charger. Solar Victoria rebate and loan on the panels and inverter, and the federal battery discount on the battery, applied.

Solar & Battery across Melbourne

EV chargers are one of the most common jobs we do in Beaconsfield: modern boards, short cable runs, often a pre-wired garage. Charger supplied and installed, solar mode configured, Certificate of Electrical Safety issued.

EV Chargers across Melbourne

Beaconsfield is active building country and new Victorian homes are all-electric. We deliver the electrical fit-out and the full electric package (solar, reverse cycle, heat pump, induction, EV circuit) as one contractor, priced from the plans and installed to the build program.

Builders across Melbourne

Replacing a 20-plus-year-old ducted gas heater with ducted reverse cycle on new R1.5 insulated ducts is the job we do most in Beaconsfield. The house gets cooling for the first time, the gas bill drops and the VEU discount comes off the install. Where the ducts cannot be replaced, a Braemar Dominator keeps them and controls the airflow, and where ducted is not practical, Mitsubishi Electric or Hisense split systems cover the living areas and bedrooms.

Heating & Cooling across Melbourne

Heat pump hot water is the easiest electrification win in Beaconsfield: 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.

The whole experience of working with Powerband has been fantastic. From the get go they were helpful with the design, requirements and answering all the questions we had about the install. We couldn't be happier with choosing them for the job. Special thanks to Bailey and the team for getting the entire installation done in one day it was a huge job so for it to be done and to such a high standard is much appreciated Thanks everyone at Powerband for all you've done

We have just had a Braemer Dominator reverse cycle ducted system installed by the Powerband Electrical team to replace our gas-fired system. We were very happy with the whole process, from the sales/design discussions with Dayle to the installation by the team led by Julian and including Logan and Darren. Using the existing ducting had its challenges but the team overcame them well. Julian set up the AirTouch5 control system & zoning with us and with a sudden cold snap arriving it has proven simple to use to create a comfortable environment. In fact we are already finding it far more effective system than the considerably larger gas unit and a more uniform heat with less draughts. Thanks to the Powerband team. Ken in Glen Waverley

Petris and his electrical team did 2 inverter airconditioner installs as part of our whole solar system install. Great workers, good thinkers who could sort out a couple of small issues in short order and wonderful people to have around our house. Organised and professional. Highly recommend Powerband.

Had the Powerband team electrify out whole house. Updated the heating / cooling with split systems, replace gas cooktop & hot water and put solar on with a 30kw battery. No gas bill, solar is producing more energy than we consume. These days we barely even have the supply charge. As part of it, they put the package together of what we wanted and needed to future proof our house and showed us several options for paying for it, in the end we opted for a 5-year interest free loan. Looking at our numbers, most of the loan will be paid off from the savings from our gas and electricity savings. All the work and upgrades done and barely any out of pocket cost, nice.... The team were great - worked in with timing for the jobs when it worked for us. The boys on site were all great, friendly, polite and professional. Did the job well and packed up (and cleaned up) well. Happy to recommend Powerband to anyone wanting to electrify their house in a cost-effective way.

FAQ

Beaconsfield questions

Anything else, call 0466 355 441.

Is Beaconsfield eligible for Victorian Energy Upgrades discounts?

Yes. Beaconsfield is inside the VEU area, so heat pump hot water and reverse cycle heating and cooling both attract discounts, with the largest when you are replacing gas. We apply them on the quote.

Can you replace ducted gas heating in a Beaconsfield home, and do the ducts need replacing?

In many Beaconsfield homes, yes. On most jobs we replace the old gas ducts with new R1.5 insulated ducts sized to the new reverse cycle unit. Where the ducts cannot be replaced, often in double-storey homes, we fit a Braemar Dominator, which keeps the existing ducts and controls the airflow through them. We check which applies at the site visit.

How quickly can you get to Beaconsfield for a quote?

Usually within the week, often sooner. Our depot is in Somerville, about 30 minutes from Beaconsfield.

Do Beaconsfield homes have enough roof for solar and a battery?

Nearly all of them. A standard Beaconsfield home takes 6.6kW to 10kW comfortably, and larger blocks take more. We size to your usage and to whatever gas appliances you are replacing.

Which suburbs around Beaconsfield do you cover?

All of them. Berwick, Officer and Officer South and the rest of the South East and Casey area, and across Melbourne. See the locations page for the full list.
