Electrify your heating for cool savings

Reduce your bills by installing a reverse cycle air conditioner through our Love Bayside, Electrify Everything program

Did you know heating and cooling makes up around 47% of the energy bill of an average Victorian home? With winter upon us and gas bills rising, now is the perfect time to consider an efficient electric reverse cycle air conditioner.

Reverse cycle air conditioners are three to four times more efficient than a gas space heater or standard electric heater in winter. They have the added benefit of both heating and cooling your home. Each system can be controlled independently, allowing you to optimise and control temperatures within different zones in your house.

How does a reverse cycle air conditioner work?

Reverse cycle air conditioners are made up of two units, an outdoor unit and an indoor unit. For heating, the outdoor unit extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it to the indoor unit with a heat exchanger and fan to blow the heated air around the room. To cool the room, the system works in reverse.
