Gas Ducted Heating Replacement in Bundoora — Real Job, Real Savings
On 22 April 2026, a Bundoora homeowner replaced their old gas ducted heater with a high-efficiency Midea multi-split system — and walked away paying just $3,200 out of pocket after a $6,800 VEU rebate was applied at invoice. The installation was completed by Green Electric Solutions, a VEU-accredited provider serving Melbourne’s northern suburbs.
The old ducted gas heater was safely decommissioned, the gas line capped, and a modern Midea 20kW multi-split system installed in its place — delivering 20.4 kW heating and 19.35 kW cooling across five zones of the single-storey home. Existing ductwork was reused where possible, keeping the gas ducted heating replacement in Bundoora smooth, fast, and cost-effective. All indoor and outdoor units were installed, tested, and certified to meet Victorian safety and energy standards.
How the VEU Rebate Made This Bundoora Gas Heater Replacement Affordable
The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program is the primary reason gas ducted heating replacement in Melbourne is now financially accessible for most homeowners — not just those with deep pockets. In this Bundoora installation, replacing the gas ducted heater with a Midea reverse-cycle system generated 83 Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates (VEECs) — each certificate representing one tonne of carbon emissions reduced. Those certificates were traded by Green Electric Solutions as the accredited VEU installer, and the value was passed directly to the homeowner as a discount at invoice.
The result? The total system cost dropped by nearly 70% — from $10,000 down to $3,200 out of pocket. No waiting for a government cheque. No rebate forms to chase. The saving was applied upfront on the day.
- $6,800 rebate applied at invoice — no paperwork, no waiting, no hassle
- 70% of the system cost covered by the VEU program on this job
- 83 VEECs generated — verified carbon reduction with a real dollar value attached
- Immediate financial relief — savings start from day one, not years down the track
The exact rebate amount varies depending on system size, number of VEECs generated, and current certificate market pricing — which is why getting a quote from a VEU-accredited installer matters. See the full cost breakdown for this Bundoora installation in the table below.

Why Bundoora Homeowners Are Replacing Gas Ducted Heating with Reverse-Cycle Systems
Switching from gas ducted heating to a modern reverse-cycle system like the Midea Multi isn’t just an upgrade — it’s the smartest energy decision a Melbourne homeowner can make in 2026. With Victorian gas prices rising year-on-year and the VEU rebate making the switch more affordable than ever, Bundoora households are locking in long-term savings while future-proofing their homes.
- Lower energy bills — high-efficiency heat pump technology delivers up to 4x more energy than it consumes
- Heating and cooling in one system — no separate units, no separate bills, year-round comfort from a single install
- No more exposure to rising gas prices — once you’re off gas, your heating cost is tied to electricity, which pairs perfectly with solar
- Reduced carbon emissions — clean electric operation with zero on-site combustion
- Built for Victoria’s energy future — as the grid shifts to renewables, your running costs drop further over time
As part of this gas ducted heating replacement in Bundoora, the old heater was fully decommissioned — not just switched off. The gas supply was disconnected, the line capped and leak-tested, and the control board removed so the unit cannot be reactivated. This is a permanent, compliant conversion to electric heating and cooling, carried out to Victorian safety standards.

The work was completed by a licensed team from Motion Electrical and Communications. All electrical work, plumbing, and refrigerant handling were carried out by qualified and certified professionals, ensuring the installation met Victorian safety standards and compliance requirements.
