Homeowners across Melbourne’s western suburbs are increasingly replacing outdated gas ducted heating systems with modern electric heating and cooling solutions. At Green Electric Solutions (VEU Approved), we recently completed another successful gas ducted heater replacement in Werribee VIC 3030, upgrading a home to a high-efficiency Midea MDV ducted reverse-cycle system.
This project is a great example of how households in Werribee and surrounding suburbs can reduce energy costs, improve comfort, and take advantage of generous Victorian government rebates through the VEU program.
Project Overview – Werribee VIC 3030
This home previously relied on a gas ducted heating system only, which meant the homeowner had no refrigerated cooling during hot Melbourne summers.
After assessing the property and energy needs, our team installed a Midea MDV ducted heating and cooling system, giving the household year-round comfort with one efficient system.
Project Details
- Location: Werribee VIC 3030
- Property Size: 121 area zones (approx. 140m² coverage)
- Old System: Gas ducted heating only
- New System: Midea MDV ducted heating & cooling system
- Heating Capacity: 23.0 kW
- Cooling Capacity: 19.5 kW
- Brand: Midea
- Model: MDV V230WN1(AU)
This upgrade allows the homeowner to heat their home in winter and cool it efficiently during summer, all with one smart electric system.
Why Many Werribee Homes Are Replacing Gas Heating
Gas heating systems have been common across Melbourne homes for decades, but today many homeowners are switching to high-efficiency reverse-cycle systems.
Key reasons include:
- Rising gas prices in Victoria
- Higher efficiency of modern heat pump technology
- Ability to heat and cool with one system
- Government rebates through the VEU program
- Reduced household emissions
Reverse-cycle ducted systems like the Midea MDV can deliver up to 3–4 times more heating energy than the electricity they consume, making them significantly more efficient than traditional gas systems.
Old Gas Heater Decommissioning
Before installing the new system, our team safely decommissioned and removed the existing gas ducted heater.
This process includes:
- Disconnecting gas supply
- Removing old ducted heating unit
- Ensuring compliance with safety standards
- Preparing ductwork and system layout for the new installation
