Climate Green Cautions Melbourne Homeowners Against Low-Cost Heat Pump Installation Traps


Posted May 27, 2025 by climategreen

Operating across Melbourne and surrounding regions — including Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Werribee, Moe, and Melton — Climate Green is committed to delivering reliable, government-compliant energy solutions that last.

 
With the growing push towards energy-efficient home upgrades and generous rebates available through the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program, Climate Green Melbourne is warning homeowners to be cautious of suspiciously cheap heat pump installation quotes that may come with hidden pitfalls.

As an accredited VEU provider, Climate Green has encountered a rising number of cases where customers have been misled by low-budget installers offering cut-price quotes — only to discover missing components, non-compliant products, or ineligibility for rebates once the job is done.

“Homeowners are often drawn to the lowest quote, thinking they’re saving money. But many of these offers leave out critical elements such as electrical upgrades, safe system removal, and even proper compliance documentation,” said a Climate Green spokesperson. “These shortcuts not only compromise safety but also lead to denied rebates and future out-of-pocket expenses.”

Typical red flags associated with these cheap quotes include:

Use of non-approved heat pump systems

Installations done by unlicensed or subcontracted workers

Lack of essential inclusions like switchboard upgrades and tempering valves

No removal of existing systems

Absence of rebate paperwork and compliance certificates

Climate Green takes a different approach — offering all-inclusive, transparent service from consultation through to installation and rebate handling. The company uses VEU-approved systems from leading brands such as Rinnai, Reclaim, Stiebel Eltron, and Chromagen, and ensures installations are carried out by licensed electricians and plumbers.

Operating across Melbourne and surrounding regions — including Geelong, Ballarat, Bendigo, Werribee, Moe, and Melton — Climate Green is committed to delivering reliable, government-compliant energy solutions that last.

“We’re here to ensure your installation is safe, efficient, and rebate-ready from day one,” the spokesperson added. “We believe in doing the job right — with no hidden surprises.”
