Heat Pump Installation Glen Waverley, done properly.
Nobody wakes up wanting a heat pump. You wake up with a dead tank and a decision to make. Here's the case for making it this one, which brands we'd fit in our own houses and why, and what the job actually looks like — with the rebate already in the number.
VEU rebate applied at quote
Up to $2,700 for a Victorian owner-occupier at current VEEC prices ($60–$75). We handle the paperwork. You don't front the cash then chase it back six months later.
Three brands, three different jobs
iStore when the rebate is what decides it. Reclaim ECO R290 or Thermann Integrated when it all has to fit in one shell with nothing outside. Reclaim CO₂ Split when you are staying in the house and want a stainless tank that outlasts the compressor.
Same tank platform, honest pricing
Reclaim ECO R290 AIO and Thermann Integrated are the same tank + heat-pump platform, Reclaim brand, Thermann brand, identical guts. Pick on brand preference or Reece supply, not spec.
COP holds on a cold morning (Reclaim CO₂)
Reclaim's CO₂ split still makes about 4.5 COP at –10 °C. That is the difference in Emerald, Gembrook and Cockatoo, where an R290 unit spends July leaning on the element it was bought to replace.
Licensed plumbing + tempering valve
Full drainage rework, tempering valve to AS/NZS 3500, isolation valves + electrical connection on a dedicated circuit, done by our licensed plumber, not a sub-contractor.
Old tank taken away same visit
Gas storage, electric storage or old heat pump, off the pad, out the gate and to an ARC-approved recycler on install day. No waiting for hard rubbish.
Fixed price within 2 hours.

How much is the VEU rebate right now?
Up to $2,700 for a Victorian owner-occupier at current VEEC prices ($60–$75 per certificate). We calculate your actual rebate at the quote based on your address, existing system, and household size.
How much will I save on my energy bill?
A gas-storage → heat pump swap typically saves $400–$900 a year. Electric storage → heat pump saves $700–$1,400. Payback after the VEU rebate is usually under 2 years.
Does a heat pump work in cold Melbourne mornings?
R290 (propane) units drop noticeably below 0 °C. CO₂ heat pumps (Reclaim) hold full capacity down to −10 °C, worth specifying for hills postcodes like Emerald, Gembrook or Cockatoo.
Is it noisy? Where do you put it?
37–48 dBA at 1 m depending on model, Reclaim CO₂ is the quietest at 37 dBA (safe next to a bedroom wall). Ideally sited on the shady side of the house away from bedrooms.
What a hot water job in Glen Waverley usually looks like
Hot water in Glen Waverley is mostly decided by when the street was built, because whatever went in at handover is what reaches end of life together, one estate at a time.
Glen Waverley sits at the outer edge of what we cover, 45 to 62 minutes from the Pakenham workshop. That makes it a booked-install suburb for us rather than a same-day one, and it is worth knowing which of those you actually need before you ring anybody.
Post-war brick veneer being steadily replaced by large double-storey rebuilds, so the suburb runs the full range from an untouched 1960s house to a brand-new four-bedroom with everything roughed in. What we get asked for out this way is mostly full Mitsubishi Electric ducted systems with proper zoning on the rebuilds, and heat pump hot water on the original homes that have not been touched.
The established streets around Central Reserve and the Glen Waverley Secondary zone, the rebuild-heavy pockets running north of High Street Road, and the apartment and townhouse development around the station and The Glen.
That matters for a heat pump more than for anything else we fit, because the deciding question is where the outdoor unit goes and how far it is from the tank position. On a post-war brick veneer being steadily replaced by large double-storey rebuilds the answer is usually obvious on the site visit and occasionally it rules a split system out entirely, in which case an all-in-one goes where the old tank stood.
Glen Waverley is two suburbs in one and they need different answers. The rebuilds want a properly zoned ducted system designed for a double-storey, which is a site visit and a design conversation rather than a price over the phone. The untouched original homes want a straight answer about hot water and whether the old ducted heater is safe. Both are planned jobs, which is the sort of work the drive from Pakenham does not change.
What we see go wrong in Glen Waverley
- Double-storey rebuilds fitted with a single-zone system cool the living area beautifully and never get on top of the upstairs bedrooms
- The remaining original 1960s houses have almost no roof cavity, so ducted is often off the table before we start
- Knock-down-rebuild blocks have tight side setbacks and a neighbour's window to consider, which constrains where the outdoor unit can legally sit
- Original electric and gas storage tanks in the untouched homes are decades old and are the highest-value rebate jobs on the list
