Werribee Gas Hot Water Replaced With 320L Neopower Heat Pump<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A Werribee homeowner replaced their gas hot water system with a 320L Neopower heat pump<\/strong><\/a>, cutting the installed cost from $3,684 to just $2,450<\/strong> after $1,234 in government rebates<\/strong> \u2014 comprising 18 STCs ($684) and VEU VEECs ($550). As a VEU Approved provider<\/strong>, Green Electric Solutions managed the complete gas-to-heat-pump transition: decommissioning, electrical and plumbing work, compliance documentation<\/a>, and rebate lodgement, all in a single coordinated project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why 320L Was the Right Size for This Werribee Home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Right-sizing starts with the property \u2014 not the tank. For this Werribee installation, the home has four or more bedrooms, and the installer confirmed the 320L system matched the recommended size<\/strong> in the VEU Water Heating Consumer Fact Sheet. The homeowner declaration also confirms receipt of product suitability and sizing information before installation \u2014 supporting a considered, requirements-based approach rather than simply selecting a larger system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How the Gas Hot Water System Was Safely Decommissioned in Werribee<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Proper decommissioning was a key part of this project. The existing gas unit was permanently rendered inoperable by drilling a hole into the tank. The installation provides a clear audit trail covering the original unit, disconnection, decommissioning, gas capping, electrical isolation, new heat pump installation, compliance plate, and final switchboard condition \u2014 demonstrating a structured transition from the existing gas system to the compliant heat pump installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\"Old<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This means the project involved more than positioning a new tank. The existing gas equipment had to be disconnected and properly decommissioned before the new heat pump could become the home\u2019s hot water solution \u2014 covering disconnection, decommissioning, gas capping, electrical work, the new tank, and the completed switchboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Qualified Electrical, Plumbing and Gasfitting Work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The gas-to-heat-pump conversion was completed with qualified trades across electrical, plumbing, and gasfitting. The installation meets relevant laws, standards, and building codes, and the consumer was provided with all required information regarding the installation. The PTR line and drainage point provide tangible evidence of the completed plumbing installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
