One licensed crew for solar, batteries, heating and cooling, hot water, induction and EV charging for Merricks North, VIC 3926. Free site inspections, fixed quotes, every rebate lodged for you.
In Merricks North the houses are on acres, the supply is often three-phase and the gas, if there is any, comes in a bottle. It is about 20 minutes from our Somerville depot and a big part of our work there is large solar and battery systems with backup, because the grid on the hinterland goes down more than it should.
With no mains gas to remove, the Merricks North plan is about generation and storage: a solar array sized for the property, a battery big enough for the evening and for outages, heat pump hot water timed to the solar, and an EV charger where the cars are. The Solar Victoria rebate and loan (solar panels and inverters) and the federal battery discount all apply, and three-phase supply where it exists opens up larger systems.
We have been working in Merricks North and around Balnarring, Merricks and Merricks Beach 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.
With little or no mains gas, Merricks North is about generation and storage first, then the appliances that run on it.
Merricks North properties usually have the roof and the three-phase supply for bigger systems than the suburbs. We size for the real load including outbuildings, configure backup properly because the grid out here is unreliable, and lodge every incentive.
Solar & Battery across MelbourneElectric storage tanks and bottled-gas hot water are the norm in Merricks North, 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 MelbourneMerricks North 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 MelbourneElectrification in Merricks North rarely starts with gas removal because there is little or none. It starts with a solar and battery system sized for the property, then heat pump hot water and reverse cycle running on it, then EV charging. We design the system as a whole so nothing is undersized later.
Home Electrification across MelbourneThree-phase supply on Merricks North acreage means 11kW to 22kW charging is realistic, and with a large solar and battery system the car runs on the property's own generation. Sigenergy DC charging suits these setups well.
EV Chargers across MelbourneBottled-gas cooktops are common in Merricks North and induction replaces them cleanly: faster, safer, no bottles to swap. We run the dedicated circuit, fit the cooktop and remove the gas connection in half a day.

Yes. Merricks North 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.
Mostly not. Most Merricks North 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.
