Common questions
Is a heat pump geyser worth repairing or should I replace it?
If the tank and compressor are sound, repairs are far cheaper than replacement. Where the compressor has failed on a unit older than eight years, we quote both options side by side.
Is a compressor replacement guaranteed?
Yes. Replacements are done with a system flush and new drier, and both part and workmanship are warranted, provided the original cause of failure is corrected.
Do you charge a callout fee?
A standard callout and diagnostic fee applies and is quoted upfront. It is credited against the repair when you accept the quote.
