Excellent service! The team arrived on time and completed the installation efficiently and up to scratch. Everything was done neatly, with great attention to detail. Ryan and Jack are top blokes and easy to deal with. Highly recommended!

Jeffrey Belvez · Glen Waverley

Zak and Ryan did a amazing job. Even with the obstacles of a double story home with a internal switch board they persevered in the heat and got the job done. Thanks guys we realy appreciate your work and polite attitude.

Stephen S · Switchboard

Absolutely fantastic service and work done! The boys were super accommodating, answered any questions I had without a problem, left everything neat and tidy and overall did an amazing job installing our battery and inverter. Cannot recommend enough.

WHAT THIS JOB COVERS

We assess the home, existing gas appliances, electricity use, switchboard capacity, supply, roof and practical equipment positions before writing a staged electrification plan. The quote sets out the sequence, electrical preparation and each agreed installation stage. For heating, hot water, cooking, solar, batteries, EV charging and gas abolishment, see the full detail on whole-home electrification.

LOCAL CONDITIONS

Whole-home electrification in Upwey, in practice

Upwey grew from 1920s weekenders into a suburb of permanent residents, partly from wartime evacuees who decided to stay, so its housing mixes converted holiday cottages with later family homes. Older cottages often have small switchboards and wiring that has been extended many times, and they are tested before heat pump, reverse-cycle and induction circuits are added.

In postcode 3158, which is Upwey alone, 252 air source heat pumps have gone in since 2001. Ferny Creek, a hills station about 4 km away, averages a 5.3 degree July minimum, so a heat pump replacing gas hot water needs to perform on cold hills mornings. Multinet's network reaches streets in Upwey. Upwey is in the AusNet Services distribution area for supply upgrades and export approval. Parts of the suburb are in a designated Bushfire Prone Area and under a Bushfire Management Overlay, and with 53.5% of dwellings owned with a mortgage at the 2021 Census, many owners stage the work and add a battery for essential circuits when budget allows.
