    Why Upgrade Your Gas Ducted Heating System?

    The cost of heating and cooling your home can account for a significant portion of your energy bills—with heating alone making up to a third of an average household’s energy expenses (as much as $800 annually). Old and inefficient systems, such as gas ducted heaters, contribute to high energy consumption. Upgrading your heating system improves comfort and delivers long-term financial savings.

    In Victoria, the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program provides substantial discounts and rebates for energy-efficient upgrades, including moving from a gas system to an electric reverse cycle air conditioning system. Replacing your existing gas ducted heating system with a ducted reverse cycle air conditioner can significantly reduce energy costs, improve indoor air quality, and lower your household’s environmental impact by minimising greenhouse gases.

    Financial Benefits of Upgrading to Electric Heating Systems

    The Victorian Energy Upgrades initiative offers generous incentives for households and businesses to switch to energy-efficient heating and cooling options. Typical discounts include:

    • Replacing a ducted gas heater with a ducted reverse cycle air conditioner can save up to $5,180, depending on the system size.
    • Installing a room-reverse cycle air conditioner offers rebates ranging from $560 to $1,400.
    • For multi-split systems, payments of up to $2,800 are available for specific installations.

    By upgrading to energy-efficient, VEU-approved products, you’ll reduce your overall running costs and decrease your reliance on natural gas, which has higher upfront and ongoing expenses. Reverse cycle systems provide year-round comfort with dual heating and cooling capabilities.

    Private rental homes are also eligible for these discounts. If you’re a tenant or landlord, we recommend working together to benefit from these upgrades, improve the property’s value, and cut energy costs.

    Why Consider Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning

    For Victorian homeowners, a reverse cycle air conditioner offers a complete heating and cooling solution. Whilst they are not as energy efficient as evaporative cooling systems, when combined with solar panels you can achieve energy savings and lower running costs, even in Winter. A reverse cycle system delivers:

    • Cooling and heating capacity customised to your home’s needs.
    • Superior temperature control with zoned areas (in ducted systems) for reliable winter heating and summer cooling.
    • Improved indoor air quality via modern air filters and air purification systems.
    • A reduction in household carbon emissions and energy consumption when combined with solar power.

    Switching from gas ducted heating provides multiple benefits, including lowering the risks associated with old gas heaters, such as carbon monoxide leaks or inefficient heating options. 

    Electric systems, like heat pumps and reverse cycle units, are also better aligned with renewable energy solutions such as solar panels. This makes them an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to future-proof their homes while reducing their environmental footprint.
