LangwarrinLangwarrin, from the switchboard up
Langwarrin sits in the City of Frankston area, about 7 km and 11 minutes from our Somerville depot, next to Langwarrin South, Baxter and Frankston South. 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.
The gas heater and the hot water unit are where a Langwarrin home's energy money goes, and both are in the Victorian Energy Upgrades area, so replacing them attracts VEU discounts on top of the running-cost saving. Ducted reverse cycle usually connects to the existing ducts, and a heat pump hot water unit goes in on the same day the old tank comes out. Solar Victoria rebates and loans cover the panels and battery that follow.
Everything on this page is done by Powerband employees, not subcontractors, and quoted as a fixed after-rebate price after a free site inspection. For the full picture of how we stage a house off gas, see home electrification; for Langwarrin specifics, the fastest answer is a phone call.
