Hot Water Heat Pumps: All You Need To Know

Have you wondered how to save money on your gas bills? Switching to heat pump hot water is a fantastic option - better for your hip pocket as well as the planet!

In this info-packed, plain-language webinar, you can get all the practical information you need to decide if a heat pump is right for you, and how to make it happen.

A majority of Victorians use gas-powered hot water – 62% of us, according to Victorian Government figures.

But with gas prices on the rise, we’re paying more and more for our hot showers. Wholesale gas prices have been steadily climbing for decades, and Victorian consumers now have the highest average gas bills in Eastern Australia. In 2026, we’re paying around $1,460 a year on average: already a 5% rise on 2025!

Sustainability Victoria calculates that we can cut that bill by around $385 – $465 annually by switching to heat pump hot water. And with a range of rebates and incentives available, it’s cheaper than you’d think to switch! Plus, heat pumps are reliable, long-lasting, and safe – both for you, and for our planet!
