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.
Do you top up gas without finding the leak?
No. A weighed charge into a leaking system is money out the window, so the leak is found and repaired first, then the system is evacuated and charged to the plated weight.
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.
