Heat Pump Installers in Hāwera

Heat pump installers in Hāwera are a mixed group of electricians, plumbers and a couple of air conditioning businesses, 11 in all, and the same names turn up across South Taranaki. South Taranaki District Council is the building consent authority for the town. The businesses also reach Stratford, Ōpunake and, for a few of them, New Plymouth. Anyone comparing quotes in Hāwera will find that a plumber, an electrician and an air conditioning specialist may all be offering to do the same job, so it helps to know which kind of business is knocking on the door.

It is locally owned, based in Hāwera and serves Taranaki, installing wall mount units, floor consoles and quiet ducted systems, and it adds Smart Vents and Lossnay units for ventilation. It is rated 4.9 from 36 reviews.

The electricians fit heat pumps next to their other work.

Heat pump hot water is a bigger part of the local trade than space heating alone, and it sits mostly with the plumbers.

Farms and workshops around South Taranaki lean on the electricians for this, since Corrigan Electrical, Sinclair Electrical & Refrigeration Opunake and Central Taranaki Electrical all work on rural and commercial jobs as well as houses. A homeowner in Hāwera who wants a single wall unit for a lounge will usually find the electricians and Next Generation Air the closest fit, while a house with a hot water cylinder to replace will do better with the plumbers.

Commercial and industrial customers have their own option. Excel Taranaki Ltd is the Hāwera branch of Excel Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, covering industrial and commercial refrigeration and heating, ventilation and cooling, with round-the-clock servicing. It is rated 1.0 from 2 reviews.
