Residential Heating & Cooling Solutions
Ditch the gas. Keep year-round comfort.
AEU designs and installs energy-efficient reverse-cycle air conditioning for Victorian homes, from one-room split systems to zoned whole-home ducted systems. We assess your existing equipment, heat load and eligible Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) discount before we quote, then apply the confirmed discount upfront. If you are comparing residential heating and cooling in Victoria, start with the system your home actually needs, not the largest rebate number on the market.
The Industry Standard We Set
30
Year
Workmanship Guarantee
Most HVAC installers offer a 5-year workmanship guarantee — if they’re still operating to honour it. AEU backs every residential installation for three full decades — split, multi-split and ducted reverse cycle systems.

Save On Energy Costs
Save on Energy Costs with Reverse Cycle Air Conditioning
Switching to reverse cycle air conditioning for home heating and cooling can dramatically cut your energy bills compared to gas. A 2.5-star multi-split costs about $400/year, while gas ducted can run up to $1,760/year.
- Lower heating costs than gas
- Year-round comfort — heating and cooling in one system
- Eco-friendly — reduces both costs and emissions

VEU rebate eligibility
Who qualifies for a VEU discount.
The household VEU heating and cooling discount is available across Victoria without an income test, including for private rental properties with the necessary owner and tenant coordination.
The new reverse cycle air conditioner must provide heating and cooling, be on the VEU approved-product register and carry the required warranty. If equipment is being replaced, it must generally be more than two years old. An accredited provider must be engaged before installation, confirm the eligible model, include the discount in the quote and manage the evidence and certificates.
Existing systems that may support a claim
- Ducted or non-ducted gas heating, including fixed room heaters
- Hard-wired electric resistance room, slab or central ducted heating
- Cooling-only refrigerative air conditioning
- Older ducted or non-ducted reverse cycle air conditioning
A property with no eligible equipment to remove may still receive a smaller discount; therefore, decommissioning is not a universal yes-or-no test. The quote must use the correct baseline, and replaced equipment must be safely decommissioned with the required evidence.
Products that are not VEU approved, cooling-only new systems, unverified DIY work and installations completed without an accredited-provider pathway do not qualify for the standard upfront discount.
Size Matters
Get the right size system — not just the cheapest quote.
Capacity is heating and cooling output in kilowatts, not electricity consumption. A unit that is too small may run continuously without holding temperature; one that is too large can cost more, cycle excessively and produce wider temperature swings. AEU should complete an on-site load assessment that considers floor area and ceiling height, insulation and draughts, glazing, orientation and shade, construction, local winter conditions, occupancy, room use, airflow, outdoor-unit clearance, noise, switchboard capacity and future electrification.

From the outset Australian energy upgrades have been of great assistance even after the installation they were still there. Prices were competitive and Derek helped when little obstacles from the power supply put in a charge I wasn’t expecting. The installer was great too working in 40c temperature. My friend also engaged A E U and was pleased with the entire process and service. Give them a chance to quote and you won’t be disappointed.

Really happy with my recent installation of a new Sigenergy battery from Australian Energy Upgrades. Professional throughout and a speedy process given the increased demand due to govt rebate expiry. Special thanks to Jon for making things quick and easy during the sales phase and for Tim on install who had to deal with the supplier shipping the wrong inverter and coming back to finish it off promptly once we had the correct inverter delivered.

Since 2017: family-owned Australian energy-upgrade specialist. 5,000+ customers and businesses shown on AEU’s current About page. REC 23631: Registered Electrical Contractor. 30 years: AEU heating and cooling workmanship warranty. Australian Energy Upgrades was founded in 2017 by brothers Tom and Sam Vandermark. One team coordinates the site assessment, system design, incentive paperwork, installation, commissioning and after-sales support. Before a gas-to-reverse-cycle upgrade in Victoria goes ahead, AEU checks the electrical supply, outdoor-unit position, pipe or duct routes, controls and the evidence needed for decommissioning.
AEU positions its 30-year workmanship guarantee as long-term cover for installation workmanship, separate from the manufacturer’s product warranty. Work is completed by appropriately licensed electrical and refrigeration trades, with the relevant electrical, refrigerant and gas compliance certificates supplied at handover. Your proposal and AEU’s published heating and cooling terms should state exactly which work the guarantee covers, along with exclusions, servicing conditions and the claims process.
A split system rebate in Victoria is not the same as a multi-split or ducted reverse cycle rebate. VEU value changes with the old equipment, the new system’s type and capacity, approved-product status and the market value of Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates. The following figures are current Victorian Government household examples current at August 2026, not fixed AEU offers.
Split System — Targeted Comfort
One outdoor unit connects to one indoor head. A single split suits a bedroom, study, living room or open-plan zone and is often the lowest-cost way to electrify the rooms used most. Separate units also let you leave empty rooms off.
For an approved 3–9 kW model, indicative VEU discounts range from $630–$1,610 when replacing a non-ducted gas heater, up to $840 for hard-wired resistance heating and about $210 for an older non-ducted reverse cycle unit. With nothing eligible to decommission, the example falls to $70–$140. Typical annual saving: up to $460 in the Victorian Government’s eligible gas-replacement example.
Multi-Split System — Several Rooms, One Outdoor Unit
A multi-split connects several indoor heads to one outdoor unit, which can solve limited outdoor space while preserving room-by-room control. The design must account for simultaneous demand: the outdoor unit cannot always deliver every indoor head’s nameplate output at once. The current official example for a 10 kW multi-split replacing ducted gas is up to $2,940.
Four separate splits — one 8 kW and three 3 kW units — may attract up to $2,520. In Sustainability Victoria’s 100 m² model, a multi-split costs about $771–$1,448 less a year to heat than unzoned 3–6 star ducted gas, depending on system rating. A useful proposal includes the indoor-unit schedule, outdoor-unit diversity, sound data and winter heating output.
Ducted Reverse Cycle — Zoned Whole-Home Control
A central unit sends heated or cooled air through insulated ducts and ceiling or floor outlets. It is the closest functional replacement for whole-home gas ducted heating, with cooling added. Good zoning keeps bedrooms and living areas independent, while correct return-air sizing and sealed, insulated ducts limit losses.
For ducted gas replacement, current examples are up to $2,520 at 10 kW, $4,200 at 16 kW and $5,530 at 22.4 kW. Central electric resistance replacement is up to $5,460; replacing an old 22.4 kW ducted reverse cycle unit is up to $910. The Victorian Government estimates annual bill savings of up to $1,140 for an eligible large ducted upgrade. Tariffs, insulation, zoning, set-points and operating hours determine the household result.
Reverse cycle systems move heat rather than creating it by combustion or electric resistance. In Sustainability Victoria’s current small-home comparison, the modelled annual heating cost is $513 for a 2.5-star multi-split, $769 for a 1.5-star multi-split and $1,153 for an unzoned 1-star ducted reverse cycle system. The same comparison puts unzoned ducted gas at $1,540 for a 6-star unit, $1,754 at 4 stars and $1,961 at 3 stars.
What the numbers do and do not tell you
These are comparative estimates, not a bill guarantee. The best decision uses your floor area, building fabric, local climate, energy tariff and operating pattern.
Residential solar can reduce daytime electricity purchases, while solar battery storage can shift stored energy into evening heating. Draught sealing and insulation reduce the load before a larger system is considered.
AEU is a Registered Electrical Contractor (REC 23631). Its wider company credentials include Solar Accreditation Australia credentials, Solar Victoria approved-retailer requirements, CM3 contractor prequalification, New Energy Tech Consumer Code approval and NECA membership. Each credential should be presented for what it covers. Tesla certification has been omitted from this service page because it does not establish heating and cooling competence. HVAC work must be completed by appropriately licensed trades, with the required electrical and refrigerant compliance document supplied at handover.

A split suits one room or open zone. A multi-split serves several rooms from one outdoor unit where outdoor space is tight. Ducted reverse cycle provides discreet whole-home coverage through vents. Compare how many rooms run together, available pipe or duct routes, noise, appearance and budget. Several efficient splits can cost less to run than an unzoned ducted system when unused rooms remain off.
It is not a flat rebate. The accredited provider identifies the old equipment and approved new model, then calculates certificates from the system type, capacity, efficiency and VEU method. Certificate prices and provider costs affect the dollar value. Current examples run from $70–$140 for a new 3–9 kW split with nothing decommissioned to $5,530 for a 22.4 kW ducted reverse cycle system replacing ducted gas. The specific deduction belongs in your written quote.
Yes. Modern reverse cycle air conditioners are heat pumps designed to heat as well as cool. When comparing reverse cycle air conditioning Victoria-wide, look at the model’s rated heating output and cold-climate zoned energy label, not only cooling capacity. Sizing, defrost behaviour, outdoor-unit airflow and insulation matter most in colder locations such as Ballarat, Bendigo and the Dandenong Ranges.
A straightforward single split is often completed in one day. Multiple splits or a multi-split commonly take several days, while a ducted changeover may take two to five days depending on roof or underfloor access, new ducts, switchboard work, zones and removal of gas equipment. AEU should confirm scope, access, electrical work, decommissioning and commissioning before scheduling.
Possibly, but the discount is normally much smaller. Victorian Government examples allow about $70–$140 for a 3–9 kW system with no decommissioned product, compared with $630–$1,610 when eligible non-ducted gas heating is removed. If gas remains for other appliances, ask whether closing the gas account after later electrification would avoid the daily supply charge.
No. VEU is a Victorian program. NSW households may have different certificate pathways or retailer offers, and the product, baseline and installer rules are not interchangeable. AEU’s Sydney team can assess the current NSW pathway and provide a separate quote. Victorian discount figures do not apply to a NSW installation.
It depends on the system you replace and the system installed. Replacing ducted gas with an approved ducted reverse-cycle system attracts the largest discounts; replacing a non-ducted gas heater attracts less. AEU confirms the eligible amount before quoting and applies it upfront.
Not always. Many ducted systems up to roughly 16kW run on single phase. Larger systems generally require three phase, and where a property is single phase an upgrade may be needed. We confirm supply and switchboard capacity at assessment.
Split suits one room or a small area. Multi-split runs several indoor heads from one outdoor unit, which saves external space. Ducted conditions the whole home from one system and hides the equipment, but needs ceiling or subfloor space for duct runs.
Yes. Without zoning a ducted system conditions every room whenever it runs. Zone dampers close off unused areas so the system works against a smaller load, which cuts run time and makes overnight bedroom-only operation practical.
Rated heating output is measured at 7°C, so what matters in Ballarat, Bendigo and the ranges is output at 2°C and below. We specify cold-climate capable equipment where the location calls for it rather than sizing from the headline figure.
−
A single split system is usually a one-day job. Multi-split and ducted installations typically take two to three days depending on duct runs, roof access and any switchboard work. Known site work is identified in your quote.
