Solar and batteries, heat pumps, ducted reverse cycle and EV charging, designed as one system and installed by our own A-Grade electricians across Mulgrave and Noble Park North and Wheelers Hill. About 40 minutes from our depot in Somerville, rebates applied before you see the price.
About 40 minutes from Somerville, Mulgrave is classic City of Monash housing: brick veneer built in the 1960s, 70s and 80s, most of it heated by ducted gas that is now well past its design life. We have worked in Mulgrave and neighbouring Noble Park North, Wheelers Hill and Springvale for years, so we know these houses before we walk in.
The gas heater and the hot water unit are where a Mulgrave 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.
We have been working in Mulgrave and around Noble Park North, Wheelers Hill and Springvale 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 Mulgrave'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 Mulgrave. 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 MelbourneMost Mulgrave homes still have a gas storage tank, and when it fails it is usually replaced like for like without anyone asking the question. The better answer is a heat pump from Reclaim, iStore or Emerald, installed in a day by our plumber and electrician together, with VEU and STCs both applied. About a quarter of the energy, and normally the fastest-paying step off gas.
Hot Water Systems across MelbourneA typical Mulgrave brick veneer has room for 6.6kW to 13kW of panels and the evening load to justify a battery. We design from your bills, install with our own CEC-accredited electricians and apply every Victorian and federal incentive on the quote.
Solar & Battery across MelbourneWe plan the whole switch for a Mulgrave 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 Mulgrave 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 MelbourneMulgrave has a mix of single and three-phase supply depending on the street and the age of the connection, and the older switchboards often need work before a charger goes in. We check both before quoting a Tesla Wall Connector, Sigenergy or Zappi, and set it to charge from your solar first.
EV Chargers across MelbourneMulgrave 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. Mulgrave 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 40 minutes from Mulgrave.
Nearly all of them. A standard Mulgrave 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.
All of them. Noble Park North, Wheelers Hill and Springvale and the rest of the Eastern Suburbs area, and across Melbourne. See the locations page for the full list.
