HOT WATER REBATES IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

OVERVIEW

Rebates are available to existing homes & small businesses moving towards a more energy efficient hot water, such as heat pump, solar or an efficient gas system. The amounts of these rebates vary depending on a few key factors including what system is currently installed, what it is being replaced with, and whether the premises is connected to mains reticulated gas.

There are three rebate schemes available: Small-Scale Technology Certificates (STC) from the federal government, Retailer Energy Productivity Scheme (REPS) from the state government, and Australian Gas Networks’ (AGN) incentives.

When upgrading to a heat pump or solar system customers can almost always claim both the STC and REPS rebates. When upgrading to a gas system unfortunately there aren’t any government rebates available, but Australian Gas Networks do offer incentives for gas systems with a 6-Star efficiency rating or higher, and connecting the premises to reticulated gas for the first time. These gas rebates work a little differently to the government schemes so if you are interested in a gas system we have some more info here.

FOR OVER 20 YEARS

AM I ELIGIBLE?

For STC and REPS, if you are upgrading to a more efficient system such as an approved solar or heat pump unit then you qualify for both rebates.
As long as you haven’t previously received a REPS rebate on a hot water system as you can only receive it once. If you haven’t replaced your system later than 2021 you have nothing to worry about. All of the solar and heat pump units which we offer are fully approved for both REPS and STCs.

HOW MUCH AM I ELIGIBLE FOR?

The rebate amounts vary depending on what type of system you are upgrading to and what was previously installed.
STC rebates for solar and heat pump systems range between around $750 – $1,050 based on how efficient the system is. REPS rebates between range between $1,000 – $1,300 for premises NOT connected to gas, or $300 – $450 for premises connected to gas. If you are looking to have gas removed we can assist in the disconnection process before or at the time of install so that you can get the full rebate.

HOW DO I CLAIM?

This is the easy part, we do all the work for you!
For all Hotwater.com.au installations we claim all rebates on your behalf and take it off the final cost as a point of sale discount. You only need to pay the full amount less any applicable rebates.

WHAT ABOUT REBATES FOR GAS?

While not eligible for any government rebates through REPS or STCs, Australian Gas Networks offer some of their own incentives for the installation of efficient gas systems.

If you currently have a gas system installed and upgrade to at least a 6-star efficiency rated gas continuous flow system then Australian Gas Networks (AGN) will contribute $150 towards your install.

For new natural gas installations, we can claim two rebates from AGN. The first is a $500 rebate applicable to existing homes going from an electric, heat pump or solar hot water to a natural gas hot water system. The second is a further $250 new connection bonus for properties that have never had a gas meter before (excludes properties that have previously and/or currently have a meter to that property or have had it removed).
