Why a Heat Pump Beats a Tank
A heat pump shifts heat instead of burning energy to create it, so day-to-day running costs land well below a standard electric storage unit.
No flue, no gas line. That matters on an older cottage block that never had either fitted. The plumbing side stays simple, because the unit feeds the same taps the old tank did.
Households weighing gas against a heat pump can read what storage and continuous-flow gas units involve on the gas fitting page.
From Old Tank to New Heat Pump
The changeover is a planned job, not a rescue, and it runs in four steps:
- 1
Ring or send the form
Call (02) 4093 0558 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.
- 2
A fixed price first
A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.
- 3
The swap itself
We disconnect and remove the old cylinder, set the heat pump on its base with room to breathe, connect it and run it up to temperature.
- 4
Covered for a year
Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.
How Is a Heat Pump Swap Priced?
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.
What sits behind the figure changes from house to house:
- The unit itself, since a compact model for two people costs less than a family-sized one
- The supply line, because corroded galvanised pipe in a pre-1970s cottage may need renewing before it can safely feed new gear
- Placement, since a heat pump wants clear airflow and cannot live in a sealed cupboard
- Electrical work the circuit needs, handled by a licensed electrician we coordinate with

When We're Not the Right Call
When we're not the right call: a heat pump that keeps tripping the switchboard needs an electrician's diagnosis first, because that circuit sits outside our licence and we leave it alone. A unit that has died outright and left the house with nothing is an after-hours matter for the emergency plumber page instead.
Questions Before the Swap
Does a heat pump suit a small Speers Point household?
Yes. The average household here is 2.4 people on census figures, and a compact heat pump tank of modest size covers that daily draw. There is no point heating a family-sized cylinder for two or three people.
Will we have hot water while the old tank comes out?
Yes. We can put a loaner tank in place for the changeover period, so the taps stay hot while the new heat pump is connected and commissioned. It leaves once the new system is running.
Can a heat pump go where the old electric tank sat?
Where the old tank stood outdoors, the new unit can take its spot and reuse the pipework close by. An indoor cupboard is a different story: the compressor needs open air, so we would move it to an outside wall.
Do you install heat pumps beyond Speers Point?
Yes. Boolaroo, Teralba, Macquarie Hills and Warners Bay are covered too, with the same household sizing check and the same 365-day warranty on all work.
