Heat Pumps and Hot Water

Heat pumps and hot water systems that cost less to run

A correctly sized heat pump is the most efficient way to heat and cool an Auckland home, and pairing heating and hot water with solar lets you run them on your own power. We supply, install and service heat pumps, air conditioning and hot water systems as part of a complete electrical service.

Why Vital Energy for this

Done by electricians, backed for ten years

Customers regularly tell us our heat pump installs were quick, tidy and well communicated. Because we are electricians first, the electrical side is done properly, and if you have solar we set things up so heating and hot water run when the sun is out.

What is included

  • Room-by-room heating and cooling assessment
  • Heat pump or air conditioning supply and installation
  • Hot water system installation and electrical connection

FAQs

Heat Pumps and Hot Water: questions people ask

Straight answers. If yours is not here, ask us.

Do you install heat pumps and air conditioning?

Yes. We install and service energy-efficient heat pumps and air conditioning across Auckland, keeping homes warm in winter and cool in summer.

Can my heat pump run on solar?

Yes. With solar and smart control, heating and hot water can be scheduled to run when your panels are producing, which is one of the best ways to use your solar.

Do you do hot water systems?

Yes. We install and connect hot water systems as part of our residential electrical service and can advise on the most efficient option for your household.

Can I heat my hot water with solar?

Yes. Rather than separate solar thermal panels, we heat water from your solar PV: a hot water cylinder or hot water heat pump runs on a timer or smart control while the panels are producing, so the biggest load in most homes runs on your own power.
