St Andrews BeachThe St Andrews Beach job, house by house
50 minutes from Somerville, St Andrews Beach is where a lot of our Peninsula work is. Coastal homes, strong solar, owners who want a battery and backup for the outages that come with the wind. Gas is reticulated in parts of St Andrews Beach and not others, so the electrification plan starts with checking what the house actually runs on.
The gas heater and the hot water unit are where a St Andrews Beach 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 goes in with new R1.5 insulated ducts, and a heat pump hot water unit goes in on the same day the old tank comes out. The Solar Victoria rebate and loan cover the solar panels and inverter, and the federal battery discount covers the battery.
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 St Andrews Beach specifics, the fastest answer is a phone call.
