Solar and batteries, heat pumps, ducted reverse cycle and EV charging, designed as one system and installed by our own A-Grade electricians for Windsor homes, 50 minutes from our Somerville base. Rebates applied on the quote.
Windsor is inner Melbourne, City of Stonnington, about 50 minutes from our Somerville depot. The housing is terraces, units and apartment blocks, and a high proportion of it is rented. That shifts our work here toward rental safety checks and compliance, induction changeovers in small kitchens, EV charging in apartment car parks, and split systems where there is no roof space for ducted.
The gas heater and the hot water unit are where a Windsor 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 Windsor specifics, the fastest answer is a phone call.
Rental compliance, induction and apartment EV charging lead in Windsor. Solar is a design question, not a given.
Windsor is largely rental, and we do the two-yearly electrical safety checks Victorian rental providers need, smoke alarm and switchboard compliance, and the gas-to-electric upgrades property managers are increasingly asked for. Per-property reports, tenant access handled by us, per-owner invoicing.
Real Estate across MelbourneThe induction swap is the smallest job on this page and the one that finally lets a Windsor home cancel the gas account. Dedicated 32A circuit, cooktop supplied or yours installed, gas capped by our plumber, VEU discount on the quote.
Induction Cooktops across MelbourneFor Windsor apartments and townhouses we handle the owners corporation submission, load management and metering that shared-supply charging needs. For houses with their own supply it is a straightforward dedicated circuit and a charger set to solar-first.
EV Chargers across MelbourneIn Windsor the ducted gas heaters are reaching the end of their lives together, and every one of them is a candidate for a reverse cycle swap using the ducts already in the roof. ARC-authorised technicians, VEU discount applied, and for the smaller homes and units a split system or multi-head does the job for less.
Heating & Cooling across MelbourneMost Windsor 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 MelbourneRoof space is the constraint in Windsor. Terraces take smaller arrays, apartments usually cannot take individual systems, and the right answer is often a battery on an existing system or a right-sized array on a townhouse. We tell you honestly what your roof can do before you spend anything.
Solar & Battery across MelbourneA full Windsor electrification is usually heating first, hot water second, then solar and battery sized to the new load, then the cooktop, then the gas meter abolished. Designed once at the first inspection, staged over as many visits as suits you, and every step attracts its own rebates.

Yes. Windsor 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 50 minutes from Windsor.
