How it works
Getting a heat pump installed shouldn't be a hassle. Here's what happens from your first call to the day you're sitting in a warm room.

Call us or fill in the form. We'll ask a few questions about your home and give you a clear price with no surprises.
Site visit
We come to your home, check the layout, confirm the right unit for your room, and agree on the best spot for the install.

We fit the unit, tidy up as we go, and walk you through how to use it before we leave. Most installs are done in half a day.
Backed by warranty
Every install comes with the manufacturer's warranty. Because we service what we fit, you've got one number to call if anything comes up.
Why Wellington homeowners choose us
Wellington homes are tricky to heat. Older timber houses, that southerly wind, damp that never quite lifts in winter. A heat pump is the cheapest way to deal with all that, but only if it's the right size and in the right spot. That's the bit we get right.
Sized for your room
We measure first, recommend second. An oversized unit is noisy and inefficient. An undersized one never keeps the room comfortable. We get it right.
All major brands
We install Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, and Hitachi. We recommend on merit, not on which brand pays us more to sell it.
We back our work
We service and repair what we install. You're not left trying to track down a separate company after the job's done. One number, one relationship.
Honest about cost
We publish real price ranges because we'd rather you came to us knowing the numbers than feel surprised after a site visit. No hard sell, no bait-and-switch.
Warmer Kiwi Homes
We'll help you check whether you qualify for the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant before we quote, so you don't leave money on the table.
All of greater Wellington
From the city suburbs to the Hutt Valley, Porirua, and the Kapiti Coast. We know the region and the conditions that affect how heat pumps perform here.
Brands we install
We fit all five major brands and match them to how Wellington homes actually behave in winter. For cold, south-facing or exposed rooms, the cold-climate models from Mitsubishi Electric and Daikin hold their heat best. Fujitsu is the value pick for milder, well-sheltered rooms, with Panasonic and Hitachi sitting in between. Your room, your budget and how quiet you want it all come into it. Each brand has a page with our honest take on who it suits.
Not sure what size heat pump you need?
In a draughty Wellington home it comes down to the room, its insulation and how exposed it is to the southerly. Our quick sizing calculator helps you get the size right.
Areas we cover
We install heat pumps across greater Wellington. Each region has its own conditions, and we know them well.
Lower Hutt
Damp valley floor homes, coastal salt air around Petone and Eastbourne, and frost pockets in Wainuiomata.
Upper Hutt
Inland basin with colder winters than Wellington city. Larger homes and sections, higher heating demands.
Porirua
Harbour-edge suburbs and hillside new builds, with exposed coastal conditions in parts of the basin.
Kapiti Coast
Sandy coastal conditions from Paraparaumu to Waikanae. A lot of newer single-level homes and retirees.
