About our servicing
Air conditioning
A heat pump is the same unit as a reverse-cycle air conditioner, so one system cools and dehumidifies in summer and heats in winter. Perfect for muggy Waikato days.

Why Waikato homeowners choose us
We are a local team who know Waikato homes, from draughty timber villas to modern subdivisions. Here is why homeowners around the region trust us with the job.

The right size beats brand or grunt every time. We size for your rooms, your insulation and our hard frosts, so the unit warms the space without short-cycling or stinging your power bill.

A neat install matters more than a cheap sticker price. We run pipework cleanly, mount the unit in the right spot and leave your home as tidy as we found it.

We install and then service the systems we fit, so you deal with the same team long after the install day. That is our proof we get it right the first time.

We know Waikato homes
Single-glazed villas in Hamilton East, ex-state homes in the towns and new builds in Rototuna and Cambridge all heat differently. We size and place each unit for the home in front of us.
Grant help sorted
If your home might qualify for the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant, we will point you to the right models and help you understand the eligibility rules before you commit.
Brands we install
We install all the major brands and match the unit to your home and budget, not to whatever we happen to be pushing. From premium Mitsubishi Electric and Daikin to great-value Hitachi, here is what we fit.
Not sure what size heat pump you need?
A unit that is too small never quite warms the room, and an oversized one short-cycles and costs more to run. Answer four quick questions and we will point you to the right kW for your space.
Areas we cover
We install and service heat pumps right across the greater Waikato, from central Hamilton and its suburbs out to Cambridge, Te Awamutu and the surrounding towns.
Hamilton
From the single-glazed villas of Hamilton East to new Rototuna and Flagstaff builds, our heat pump installation is sized for valley-floor homes that trap fog and frost.
Cambridge
Character villas near the centre and fast-growing subdivisions like Cambridge Park share the same river fog and hard morning frosts, so heat pump installation in Cambridge is all about sizing right.
Te Awamutu
Older weatherboard homes and lifestyle blocks around Kihikihi and Pirongia cop hard clear-sky frosts, where heat pumps in Te Awamutu need real low-temperature output.
Common questions
How much does a heat pump cost in Hamilton?
Most Hamilton heat pump installs land between about $2,200 and $6,000 supply and fitted, depending on the size of the unit and how tricky the run is. A single high-wall for a bedroom sits at the lower end, while a large living-area unit for a draughty villa costs more. See our installation cost guide for the full breakdown, check whether the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant could help, and get a free heat pump quote for a fixed price. We cover the areas we serve right across the Waikato.
Which heat pump is best for the Waikato climate?
For our cold, foggy Waikato mornings the best heat pump is one rated to hold its output when the temperature drops near zero, not just the biggest or cheapest box on the shelf. We fit brands with strong low-temperature performance like Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps and Daikin heat pumps, and the right pick comes down to your room and how your home holds heat. Compare the main types of heat pump to see what suits.
Do I need a bigger heat pump for a foggy, frosty morning?
Not bigger for its own sake, but correctly sized for how your home loses heat. A single-glazed Hamilton East villa needs more grunt than a tidy new Rototuna build of the same size, and hard clear-sky frosts mean we size for the coldest mornings, not just the floor area. Try our heat pump sizing calculator for a starting point, then our heat pump installation team confirms it on site.
Can a heat pump cool and dehumidify my house in summer?
Yes. A heat pump is the same unit as a reverse-cycle air conditioner, so it cools and dehumidifies through our warm, humid Waikato summers just as well as it heats in winter, which really helps with the condensation and damp. That can be a single room, a whole home with ducted heat pumps, or the summer air conditioning plenty of families run. Because we only service the systems we install, our heat pump servicing keeps your unit running clean.
