Why Upgrade from Gas Ducted Heating to Electric Reverse Cycle in Victoria?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
More Victorian homeowners are making the switch from gas to electric reverse cycle \u2014 and the reasons are compelling. Gas ducted heaters provide heating only, run on gas whose prices keep climbing, and produce carbon emissions. A modern reverse cycle ducted system like the Midea 25kW runs on electricity, can draw from rooftop solar if you have it, delivers both heating and cooling from one unit, and operates at 300\u2013400% energy efficiency through heat pump technology. With the VEU rebate<\/strong> making the upfront cost manageable, the switch has never made more financial sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
