About our servicing
Air conditioning
A heat pump is a reverse-cycle air conditioner, so the same unit that warms you all winter cools the house on warm still days.
About air conditioningThe Warmer Kiwi Homes grant could cover most of your heat pump
If your home was built before 2008 and you meet the criteria, the scheme can fund 90% of an approved living-area heat pump, capped at $3,450 incl GST. Plenty of older Invercargill homes qualify.

Areas we cover
We install and service heat pumps right across greater Invercargill and Southland, from the city out to the coast and the surrounding towns.
Invercargill city
From Waikiwi and Windsor to Gladstone and Rosedale, our heat pump installation suits everything from older single-glazed villas to sealed new builds.
Otatara & Bluff
Salt-laden southerlies off Foveaux Strait are hard on outdoor units, so regular heat pump servicing keeps coastal systems running through winter.
Winton & districts
We fit heating and cooling in one, so a single reverse-cycle system also gives you air conditioning for warm, still summer days.
Wider Southland
From Riverton to Gore and Mataura, see all the areas we serve across the district for local heat pump work.
Common questions
Are heat pumps good for cold Invercargill winters?
Yes. Modern cold-climate heat pumps keep pulling warmth from the outside air even through our hard Southland frosts, and they run far more cheaply than plug-in heaters. The key is getting the right one for your home. Our older single-glazed villas lose heat fast, so a unit sized and matched to the room beats picking on brand or grunt alone. Comparing the different types of heat pump helps you see what suits your place.
What size heat pump do I need for my home?
It depends on the room size, ceiling height, insulation and how much glazing you have, and here in Invercargill we usually allow a bit more capacity per square metre than warmer parts of the country. A unit that's too small will struggle on frosty mornings, while an oversized one short-cycles and wastes power. Our heat pump sizing calculator gives you a quick starting point, then we confirm it on site.
How much does a heat pump cost to run in Southland?
Running cost comes down to the unit's efficiency, how well your home holds heat and how long you run it, and over a long southern winter that adds up, so efficiency matters more here than almost anywhere. A well-sized modern heat pump is one of the cheapest ways to heat a room. For the upfront side, our installation cost guide lists real fitted price ranges, and many older homes qualify for the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant.
Can one heat pump warm my whole house?
One well-placed unit will heat an open-plan living area nicely, but it won't push much warmth into closed-off bedrooms down the hall. For whole-home warmth you're better with ducted heat pumps or a multi-split running several rooms off one outdoor unit.
