Heat Pump Installers in Invercargill

Fifteen heat pump installers cover Invercargill, and the trade here is as much about farms and refrigeration as it is about houses. Southland Electrical & Refrigeration began in 1991 as Southland Farm Services, installing and maintaining dairy milking systems, and later added electrical and refrigeration work. It now fits heat pumps alongside that, for homes, commercial buildings and dairy sheds. Progressive Engineering Southland is best known for milking equipment, effluent systems, pumps and irrigation, with a separate refrigeration and heat pump division that installs Mitsubishi and Gree units across Southland and Central Otago.
