Donnybrook Home Heating & Cooling Upgrade — Midea System Installed with $7,800 VEU Rebate

Replace Your Gas System with Energy-Efficient Midea Heating & Cooling

A Donnybrook home had been running on a Braemar ducted gas heater in the roof cavity for years — functional, but outdated. In May 2026, Green Electric Solutions replaced it entirely with a VEU-approved 19 kW Midea Multi Split Heating & Cooling System, bringing modern, efficient comfort to every room.

Why VEU Rebates Make This Upgrade Even More Powerful

The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) scheme reduces the upfront cost of switching from gas to a reverse-cycle system — sometimes by thousands of dollars. For this Donnybrook home, that meant $7,800 back, turning an already-needed upgrade into an easy financial decision. No full price, no delay. Just a modern, efficient system installed and running.

VEU Rebates & Cost Summary
Total System Cost (Incl. GST) $11,600.00
Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Rebate − $7,800.00
Final Customer Price $3,800.00

This Melbourne / Victoria homeowner benefited from a $7,800.00 VEU rebate, reducing the total system cost from $11,600.00 to just $3,800.00 — making the switch to efficient electric heating and cooling significantly more affordable.

Why Old Gas Heaters Are Struggling in Melbourne Homes

Old gas ducted heaters were designed for a different era — smaller homes, cheaper energy, and winters that didn’t demand much. Today’s families need fast heating, summer cooling, zoned control, and lower bills. A single-mode gas system can’t deliver all four.

This Donnybrook home’s aging Braemar ducted heater was exactly that problem. After a detailed assessment, Green Electric Solutions installed a Midea MULMI0619B multi-split system — one outdoor unit powering five independently controlled indoor units, delivering 21.5kW heating and 19kW cooling, precisely sized for the home.

After visiting the site and assessing the needs of the family, Green Electric Solutions installed a Midea MULMI0619B multi-split system with one outdoor unit powering five independently controlled indoor units across the home. Delivering 21.5kW heating and 19kW cooling, the system was precisely sized for maximum efficiency, lower running costs, and year-round comfort with minimal disruption during installation.

Full Decommission to Commission — Licensed & Victorian Compliant

This wasn’t a simple swap. Decommissioning the old Braemar gas heater required licensed gas capping before anything else could begin. From there, the team ran electrical wiring to all five indoor units and the outdoor unit, installed refrigerant pipework, and fully commissioned the Midea system. Every step completed by licensed electricians and plumbers, fully compliant with Victorian regulations.
