Heat Pump Hot Water Installation in Wollongong

Upgrade to an Energy-Efficient Hot Water System Today With A Heat Pump

Switching to a heat pump hot water system is one of the most effective ways to lower your household energy bills. If your existing electric or gas hot water system is nearing the end of its life—or you’re building a new home heat pumps offer long-term cost savings, government rebates, and excellent performance in Wollongong’s coastal climate.

At CS Plumbing Services, we supply and install high-efficiency heat pump water heaters for homes and units across Wollongong and the Illawarra region.
We’ll help you choose the right system and ensure your installation is fully compliant and rebate-ready.

Why Choose a Heat Pump?

Heat pump water systems don’t generate heat like traditional electric or gas heaters. Instead, they use a refrigerant cycle to extract warmth from the surrounding air and transfer it into the water tank.

That makes them up to 70% more efficient than conventional systems.

System Type	Typical Energy Use (Per Year)	Average Annual Cost	Relative Efficiency
Electric Storage Heater	~3,600 kWh	$1,200+	★☆☆☆☆
Gas Storage Heater	~3,000 kWh	$950–1,100	★★☆☆☆
Heat Pump System	~1,000–1,200 kWh	$350–450	★★★★☆

Types of Heat Pump Systems

There are two main options:

• Integrated Systems
  These combine the tank and compressor in a single outdoor unit. They’re compact, simple to install, and ideal for most residential homes.
• Split Systems
  These separate the compressor and tank, allowing greater flexibility in placement. Ideal for smaller yards or shaded areas.

We’ll assess your property layout, water usage, and preferences to recommend the right configuration.

Perfect for Wollongong’s Climate

Heat pumps work best in mild to warm air temperatures. That’s why they’re ideal for Wollongong, where average temperatures stay well above 5°C year-round. Unlike colder regions where performance may drop, heat pumps in coastal NSW remain highly efficient across all seasons.

Government Rebates Available

Installing a heat pump could qualify you for:

• Federal STCs (Small-scale Technology Certificates)
  These apply to eligible systems and reduce the upfront cost based on the unit’s efficiency.
• NSW Energy Savings Scheme (ESS)
  Additional rebates for switching from an electric or gas system to an energy-efficient alternative.

We handle all paperwork and ensure your installation meets the eligibility requirements for available incentives.
