Heat Pumps and More

Introduction

What you should know! Insulation keeps the heat in when it is cold and the heat out when it is hot.

Homes built before the 1980's generally do not have much, if any, insulation. This means that New Zealand homes are often cold, damp, energy inefficient and expensive to run.

Insulating your home is the single most effective measure you can take to keep your home comfortable all year round and save you money on your power bills.

A well insulated home will be a warmer, healthier and more pleasant home for you and your family.

It is one of the smartest investments you can make in your home. It improves your quality of life inside you your home and saves you money. We offer Retrofit services for ceiling insulation, underfloor Insulation and moisture barriers. We also offer a full installation service for new build homes.

Heat Pump Sizing and Design

Heat Pump Sizing and Design

Heat pump installation design is very important to the value you get in regards to heating and cooling in your home. You need to get the heat pump sizing correct or you will find that your unit won't deliver the result you want and will cost you more money in power, as it may be too small to do the job needed.

At MINT Auckland, we will visit your home and carry out a no obligation consultation and establish what size and model is needed for your home.

We can work off plans and design a system that is integrated into your home if you are building or renovating.

There are many heat pump units to choose from including ducted, bulkhead, hi-wall, cassette and floor consoles. We help you select the system that is right for your house. We will ensure you are getting what you need at a fair price.

Heat Pump/Air Conditioning Grants Available

Heat Pump/Air Conditioning Grants Available

Heat pump/air conditioning grants available - Up to 80% of the cost of an approved heating/cooling device installed in your home. This could be a heat pump or an efficient wood/pellet burner for the main living area. Heating/cooling grants are capped at $3000 including GST.

If your main living space is missing a heat pump/air conditioning unit then let us check the space for you, size up the area and provide you with a free quotation to fully supply and install a hi-wall heat pump unit!

Checklist for a heating/cooling grant:
  • You own and live in a home build before 2008.
  • You (the owner) have a community services card or live in an area identified as low income.
  • You have a ceiling and underfloor insulation installed to EECA standards. If your home has been insulated through a Government insulation programme, we'll confirm it when you apply for a heater grant. Otherwise an EECA insulation provider will do a quick check - at no cost to you! We can do this too!
  • Your home doesn't already have one of the following fixed heaters that is operational in any living area of the house: heat pump, wood or pellet burner, flued gas heater or central heating system. If your home has one of these heater types, it is not eligible for a heating grant.
