Ready for a little insider knowledge? Here’s something you might not know: a new, energy-efficient heating and cooling system isn’t just a fantasy. Thanks to a fantastic Victorian government initiative, it’s more affordable than ever. We’re talking about getting a massive discount that could save you thousands of dollars.
If you’ve been thinking about replacing that old, noisy, and inefficient system, this is the sign you’ve been waiting for. Let’s pull back the curtain on the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program and show you exactly how to make it work for you.
Your Home Deserves a Smart Upgrade (and Your Wallet Deserves a Break!)
Did you know that the average household spends up to $800 a year just on heating? That’s a huge chunk of your energy bill going towards an outdated system that’s likely not even keeping you as comfortable as it should.
The VEU program was designed to help Victorians put an end to this energy waste. By helping you upgrade to a modern, energy-efficient system, the government offers significant discounts that make the switch easy and incredibly worthwhile. This isn’t just about getting a new heater or air conditioner; it’s about putting money back in your pocket and creating a more comfortable, sustainable home for your family.
Am I Eligible for a Discount?
The great news is that almost every household in Victoria can take advantage of these savings. The eligibility criteria for the VEU program are simple and straightforward:
- You must be a Victorian household or business.
- The heating and cooling system must be VEU-approved. This ensures the system is of high quality and truly energy-efficient.
- The system must have a minimum five-year warranty. This gives you peace of mind that your investment is protected.
- It must be capable of both heating and cooling. We’re talking about a true year-round comfort solution!
If you’re replacing an existing system, the property must also be more than two years old. It’s that easy!
What Kind of Discounts Are We Talking About?
The VEU program offers serious savings, with household discounts ranging from hundreds to thousands. For example, replacing a central electric ducted heater with a high-efficiency system can save up to $5,460—making major upgrades like ducted or split-system reverse cycle air conditioners both affordable and smart.
