"Heat Pumps are proven to be one of the most energy efficient forms of heating available and are the most popular choice of home heating in New Zealand. Heat Pumps offer features that other heating options cannot."
How does a Heat Pump work?
Heat pumps use refrigerant cycles to transfer heat, similar to how a refrigerator works but in reverse. They are highly efficient because they move heat rather than generating it, unlike typical electric or gas heaters, making heat pumps a cost-effective and environmentally friendly heating and cooling solution for your home or workplace.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right heat pump for my home or room?
The right heat pump for your space will depend on your home or rooms size, layout, insulation level and heating or cooling needs. EnergySmart can help you select the most suitable heat pump size and format based on your space and needs.
Will installing a heat pump reduce my energy bills?
Depending on use - yes. Heat pumps are more energy efficient than most forms of heating and can deliver more heating or cooling per unit of energy used than gas or electric resistance heaters, leading to lower energy consumption and cost.
Can I use a heat pump all year round?
Yes - Heat pumps are designed to heat your home in winter and cool it in the summer, providing, reliable and energy-efficient temperature control through all seasons.
Why does EnergySmart recommend Daikin and Mitsubishi heat pumps?
EnergySmart recommends Daikin and Mitsubishi heat pumps because they are proven to perform reliably in New Zealand homes and conditions. Both brands are known for their energy efficiency, durability, quiet operation, and advanced technology, helping homes stay comfortable while keeping running costs low. They also offer strong warranties and local support, giving customers confidence in long-term performance and after-sales service.
What can I expect during my Heat Pump installation?
Our professional installers will assess your home, confirm the placement of your Daikin or Mitsubishi heat pump, install your indoor and outdoor units, connect your electrical work safely, test your heat pump and provide guidance on use and heat pump maintenance.
How can I tell if my heat pump needs to be serviced or replaced?
If your heat pump isn’t heating or cooling effectively, has weak airflow, makes unusual noises, or hasn’t been serviced in the past year, you may want to look at having your heat pump serviced. If your heat pump is over 10–15 years old, your energy bills are rising, or repairs are becoming frequent and costly, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. A professional assessment by our EnergySmart team can confirm whether a service or an upgrade is the best option.
