Solar and batteries, heat pumps, ducted reverse cycle and EV charging, designed as one system and installed by our own A-Grade electricians across Diamond Creek and Eltham North and Research. About 70 minutes from our depot in Somerville, rebates applied before you see the price.
Diamond Creek is in the Nillumbik Shire foothills, about 70 minutes from Somerville. Sloping blocks, tree cover and homes from the 70s through the 90s, most of them on ducted gas or an old wood heater. Shade is the design problem for solar here, so we spend more time on panel placement and optimisers in Diamond Creek than almost anywhere else, and reverse cycle heating is the biggest win for the cold winters.
Most Diamond Creek properties skip the gas conversation entirely and go straight to the question that matters: how much solar and battery does this place need to run itself. We size for the real load, including sheds and pumps, and we configure backup circuits properly because power outages are a fact of life out here.
We have been working in Diamond Creek and around Eltham North, Research and Eltham 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.
Cold winters and shaded roofs set the order in Diamond Creek: reverse cycle heating first, then solar designed around the trees.
Diamond Creek winters are cold and a lot of the houses heat with wood or bottled gas. Reverse cycle from Braemar, Mitsubishi or Hisense heats for a fraction of the cost and cools in summer. We size it to the house, not the brochure, and the VEU discount applies.
Heating & Cooling across MelbourneShade from established trees is the design problem for solar in Diamond Creek, and it is why we specify SolarEdge optimisers or careful string design here more than anywhere else. Get the layout right and the hills produce well. Batteries with backup are popular for the outages that come with the trees.
Solar & Battery across MelbourneElectric storage tanks and bottled-gas hot water are the norm in Diamond Creek, and both are expensive to run. A heat pump does the same job on about a quarter of the energy, qualifies for VEU discounts and STCs, and set to run at midday it heats on the solar. One-day changeover.
Hot Water Systems across MelbourneFor Diamond Creek properties the electrification plan is generation first: solar and battery big enough for the house and the sheds, then the appliances that run on it. One design, one crew, every rebate applied.
Home Electrification across MelbourneEV charging on a Diamond Creek block is about the cable run and the switchboard. Both are checked at the inspection and included in the fixed price. Tesla, Sigenergy or Zappi, integrated with your solar.

Yes. Diamond Creek 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.
Mostly not. Most Diamond Creek properties run on electricity with bottled gas for cooking at most, so electrification here is about solar, battery and heat pumps rather than gas removal. We confirm what your property has at the inspection.
Usually within the week, often sooner. Our depot is in Somerville, about 70 minutes from Diamond Creek.
