Melbourne's cold winters demand reliable, efficient heating solutions. At Rite Price Victoria, we specialize in modern, energy-efficient heating systems that keep your home warm and comfortable while minimizing energy consumption and environmental impact.
As Victoria transitions away from gas heating as part of the state's Gas Substitution Roadmap, electric heating solutions like reverse cycle air conditioning and heat pumps are becoming the preferred choice for environmentally conscious homeowners.
Reverse Cycle Heating: The Smart Choice
Reverse cycle air conditioning systems provide exceptional heating efficiency, delivering up to 3-5 times more heat energy than the electricity they consume. This makes them significantly more cost-effective than traditional gas heating, especially when integrated with solar power.
Our reverse cycle heating solutions are available in both ducted and split system configurations, allowing you to choose the perfect option for your home's layout and your specific needs.
Benefits of Modern Electric Heating
- Superior Energy Efficiency: Modern electric heating systems use significantly less energy than traditional gas heaters.
- Lower Running Costs: Reduce your heating bills by up to 45% compared to gas ducted heating.
- Environmentally Friendly: Reduce your carbon footprint, especially when paired with renewable energy.
- Dual Functionality: Get both heating and cooling from a single system.
- Improved Safety: Eliminate combustion risks associated with gas heating.
- Better Indoor Air Quality: No combustion means no indoor air pollution.
- Future-Proof Investment: Align with Victoria's energy transition away from gas.
Our heating experts can help you select the ideal system based on your home's size, insulation level, and your comfort preferences. We'll ensure your new heating system is correctly sized to maintain comfortable temperatures even during Melbourne's coldest days.

Frequently Asked Questions
The total cost depends on several factors including system size, home layout, and existing infrastructure. For a standard 4-bedroom Melbourne home, complete installation typically ranges from $7,000 to $12,000 after VEU rebates. Our quotes are comprehensive and include all components, electrical work, and proper commissioning.
In some cases, existing ductwork can be reused, which can reduce installation costs. However, this depends on the condition, size, and insulation of your current ducts. Our technicians will assess your existing ductwork and recommend whether it can be reused or if new, appropriately sized ducts are required for optimal performance.
Modern ducted reverse cycle systems are significantly more energy-efficient than gas heating, typically using 30-45% less energy to produce the same amount of heat. This efficiency is further enhanced when paired with solar panels. Additionally, as electricity prices stabilize and gas prices continue to rise in Victoria, the cost advantage of reverse cycle systems continues to grow.
Proper sizing is critical for optimal performance and efficiency. We determine the appropriate size through a detailed assessment of your home's size, layout, insulation, window orientation, and local climate conditions. We use industry-standard load calculations to ensure your system isn't undersized (which would struggle on extreme days) or oversized (which would cycle frequently and reduce efficiency).
Zoning allows you to heat or cool only the areas of your home that are in use, rather than the entire house. This can reduce energy consumption by 20-30% or more. Modern zoning systems offer individual temperature control in different areas, allowing personalized comfort settings for different family members.
To qualify for VEU rebates, you typically need to be replacing an existing inefficient system (such as a gas heater) with an approved energy-efficient alternative. The property must be in Victoria, and specific documentation is required. As an accredited provider, we handle the entire eligibility assessment and application process for you, ensuring you receive the maximum rebate available.
A typical ducted system installation takes 1-2 days, depending on the complexity of the installation and whether new ductwork is required. Split system installations usually take 4-6 hours per unit. We always aim to minimize disruption to your home and complete installations efficiently without compromising on quality.
