The legal VEU minimum. No “up to $8,000”. No surprises on install day.
Reverse-cycle heating and cooling for the whole house, installed by licensed Melbourne electricians under the VEU rebate.
Melbourne homeowners keep warning each other about rebate-driven installers. These are real words from people who got burned.
“Don’t go through the companies offering rebates. I paid $6,000 out of pocket, now I’m paying $10,000 to fix the shonky work.”
OzBargain, multi-split horror story“They want to pocket half the rebate. You never actually know how much of it reached you.”
OzBargain, rebate-skimming complaint“The quote was firm. Then on install day came the extra bill: $60 a metre for copper, $100 for a circuit breaker.”
ProductReview, hidden upcharge“The day before install they said the rebate had dropped, so I owed more. I rang Solar Victoria. It hadn’t.”
Birdeye, manufactured rebate changeIf you’ve heard the horror stories, that is exactly why we do it differently. One honest number, in writing, before you commit.
Of ten Melbourne competitors we reviewed, not one shows a flat customer-pays number for a whole-home install. Here is the real comparison.
Whole home, up to 4 to 5 heads. One number. No install-day surprises.
A rebate ceiling, not a price. You still don’t know what you pay.
Per-room pricing. Four rooms multiplies fast, plus co-payments.
A floor price, and the per-room cost is obscured.
The opposite of how this industry usually works. If your home needs more, you hear it at the assessment, in writing, before you commit.
One outdoor unit runs 3 to 7 rooms. Backed by a 5-year warranty, locally available parts, and a same-week service window if anything ever fails.
Reverse cycle does both from one decision. Many of our customers are leaving ducted gas behind: rising bills, pilot lights, and the carbon monoxide risk older systems carry. One efficient system, lower running costs, and it slots straight into a future solar and battery setup.
Licensed electricians and plumbers, full-time and in-house. No disappearing subbies.

Yes. $1,000 is the VEU legal minimum customer contribution for a multi-split system, and it covers the standard whole-home install of up to 4 to 5 heads. If your home needs an extra, we tell you at the assessment, in writing, before you commit.
No, and be careful of anyone who says it is. “Free” is a myth, and charging under the minimum is the fraud the regulator is suspending installers for. The honest number you pay is $1,000.
Those are the main reasons a job goes above $1,000. We check for them at the free assessment and quote any extra in writing before you commit. Nothing is sprung on you on install day.
Yes. We install under the VEU program as a partner of Eco Light Up, a VEU Accredited Provider listed on the Essential Services Commission register. Your invoice and all paperwork will reflect this.
The ECONOVA system carries a 5-year warranty, parts are available locally, and we hold a same-week service window. The same in-house team that installed it handles any service.
Talk to us at the assessment. We handle the changeover end to end and will confirm exactly what’s included for your home.
When the rebate value drops, you’ll hear it from the Essential Services Commission, not from us the day before your install. Check your eligibility now and we’ll get you a fixed-price quote.
