- Te Awamutu, Kihikihi, Pirongia, Ohaupo and Waipa local service.

Installed by electricians who understand sizing, placement and performance.
A good heat pump install is more than hanging a unit on the wall. We look at the room size, glazing, insulation, airflow path, outdoor-unit location, drainage and electrical supply so the final system suits the home properly.
Proper sizing
We account for glazing, insulation, ceiling type, open-plan layouts, stairwells and Waikato winter conditions.
Clean install planning
Pipe runs, condensate drainage, outdoor-unit placement and airflow clearance are planned before install day.
Electrical compliance
Installed by a Master Electrician, with circuit protection and switchboard requirements checked where needed.
Local aftercare
We can help with servicing, cleaning, performance checks and advice after the heat pump has been installed.
Choose the right heat pump tier for the room, the finish and the budget.
Every home is different, so the best heat pump is not always the most expensive one. We help narrow the choice by looking at room size, layout, insulation, glazing, comfort expectations and budget, then recommend a system class that actually suits the space.

Use the calculator to build a more realistic starting point for your room, then compare the system classes below to see what suits the space, the finish you expect and your budget. It is a smarter way to narrow the field before a site visit and written quote confirm the final recommendation.
Why this calculator is worth using
- Built around Te Awamutu and Waipa winter conditions.
- Uses actual room, wall and glazing detail rather than rough square-metre guesses.
- Shows a Healthy Homes-style estimate separately from the comfort recommendation.
- Helps narrow the likely size range before a site visit and written quote.
Estimate the likely heating requirement, then compare the right system class.
This calculator uses actual room dimensions, glazing inputs, layout detail and Te Awamutu / Waipa conditions to give both a Healthy Homes-style estimate and a comfort-based recommendation. It is designed to give a solid starting point for sizing, but final heat pump selection should still be confirmed with a site visit, unit placement review and install check.
Compare heat pump options that suit your room, your home and your budget.
Once we know the likely heating requirement, it becomes much easier to choose a heat pump that will actually suit the space. The options below are grouped by output size so you can compare premium, mid-range and budget-friendly systems without guessing which models are too small or unnecessarily large.

These guide prices are for straightforward layouts only. Larger open-plan rooms, longer runs, difficult access or extra electrical work can push the final installed price higher.
Book a Proper Site ReviewBack-to-back install estimate terms for price ranges shown above.
The displayed price bands are a guide only for straightforward back-to-back installs across the listed systems. They help give a realistic starting point for the likely spend, but they are not a fixed quote and should always be confirmed after a site visit.
Conditions that apply
- Back-to-back install pricing is an estimate only until a site visit and written quote have been provided.
- Pricing assumes a standard back-to-back style install on a straightforward layout, or an equally simple arrangement with no unusual access issues.
- The estimate allows for up to 4.5 metres of pipe, interconnect cable and condensate drain unless otherwise stated in writing.
- For larger units, especially 5.0 kW and above, suitable roof-space or underfloor access must be available to run a new compliant circuit back to the switchboard where required.
- Pricing is based on a single-level, ground-floor installation. Split-level homes, upper-storey work, roof mounting, wall brackets, slab work, scaffolding or elevated access are extra unless included in writing.
- The existing switchboard must be suitable and regulation-compliant, with sufficient capacity and space for any required new circuit protection, isolator and connection work.
- Concrete, block, brick, fire-rated penetrations, difficult wall construction, long concealed runs or non-standard routing can add cost.
- Standard gravity drainage is assumed. Condensate pumps, difficult drain falls or drain alterations are not included unless noted.
- Outdoor unit placement assumes safe and practical access, manufacturer-compliant clearances and a standard mounting position.
- No allowance is included for switchboard remediation, mains upgrades, distributor/network work, asbestos, building repairs, repainting, joinery alterations or after-hours work unless specifically stated.
- Final model selection, unit location and installed price remain subject to site conditions, airflow path, room layout and written quote confirmation.
Ask about current heat pump supply and install options.
From time to time we may have featured supply-and-install packages or seasonal options available for Te Awamutu, Kihikihi, Pirongia, Ohaupo and Waipa homes. The best starting point is still a proper size estimate and site check so any package matches the room, the install layout and the way the home is used.
Current supply and install packages
Tell us the room size, property type and preferred system class. We can confirm whether a current package suits your home and provide a written quote after a site visit.
A better offer starts with the right size
- Packages are matched to the room and install layout.
- Premium, mid-range and budget-friendly options can be compared properly.
- Final pricing is confirmed after a site visit and written quote.
- The sizing calculator is a useful first step if you are still comparing options.
Control your comfort and keep an eye on energy use.
Selected Mitsubishi Electric systems include Wi-Fi control and energy monitoring features that make it easier to manage comfort, schedules and running costs from your phone.
Smart features that make daily use easier
- Adjust temperature and settings from your phone.
- Track estimated energy use and make smarter running decisions.
- Better visibility helps balance comfort and power bills.
- Strong feature set for owner-occupiers who want more than a basic wall unit.
Better control
Smart control features give customers an easy way to fine-tune comfort without guessing at settings.
Running-cost awareness
Energy monitoring helps show the value of setting a room sensibly instead of simply pushing the unit harder.
Smaller is not cheaper if it struggles, and larger is not always better if it costs more to run than it needs to.
Heat pump sizing is where good installs separate themselves from average ones. Window area, stairwells, ceiling shape, room openness, draughtiness and cold winter mornings all affect the final load, which is why a proper recommendation needs more than just the room floor area.
What good sizing helps avoid
- Too small struggles on cold Waikato mornings.
- Large glazing and open stairs can lift the required output sharply.
- An undersized unit often runs harder for longer and still leaves the room short on comfort.
- An oversized unit can cost more upfront than the room really needs.
- Airflow path and unit placement matter just as much as the headline capacity figure.
- The calculator gives a serious estimate, but final placement still matters.
- A site visit confirms the final model, layout and install approach.
Recent heat pump installations completed for local homes.
A good heat pump install should look tidy inside the room and outside on the wall. These recent jobs show the kind of practical unit placement, pipework and finish we aim for across Te Awamutu, Kihikihi, Pirongia, Ohaupo and Waipa homes.

Indoor wall unit finish
Positioned to suit the room, airflow path and finished appearance.
Multi-unit installations
Planned pipework and outdoor placement for homes needing more than one system.
Weatherboard home install

What matters on a heat pump install
- The indoor unit needs to suit the room layout and where people actually sit.
- The outdoor unit needs safe access, airflow clearance and a sensible service location.
- Pipework, drain routing and trunking should be planned before the install starts.
- The finished job should look tidy, not like an afterthought.
- You should know how to run, clean and service the system after it is installed.
Heat pump servicing helps keep the system clean, efficient and working the way it should.
Servicing matters because dust build-up, blocked filters, coil contamination and neglected drainage all affect performance over time. It is a useful separate service for homeowners who already have a unit installed and want to protect airflow, hygiene and operating efficiency.
Why servicing is worth doing
A proper service helps maintain airflow, reduce dust and mould build-up, keep condensate drains clear, improve efficiency and pick up issues before they turn into bigger faults. It is also one of the easiest ways to keep an older system performing closer to how it should.
- Improves airflow and system cleanliness.
- Helps maintain efficiency and output.
- Reduces the chance of drainage and hygiene issues.
- Picks up wear or faults earlier.
