The latest technology in solar water heating, heat pumps are an efficient method of heating your water. Varying greatly from traditional solar hot water systems, hot water heat pumps look much like traditional electric hot water heaters, and extract heat from the surrounding Tasmanian air. This heat is then used as the energy source to heat the water.

Hot water heat pumps do not need direct sunshine to operate, and will produce hot water in all Hobart weather. The efficiency of heat pump hot water could slash your water heating costs by up to 80%.

With over 12 years experience installing heat pumps around Hobart and surrounding suburbs, we are your perfect choice for heating and cooling your home or business. We will visit you and advise which heating system will be best suited for you and your property, whether it be Daikin, Fujitsu, Mitsubishi or LG, a split system or ducted, we have it covered.

At Whitney Electrical and Solar, we offer two EV Charging options, Zappi and also the SolarEdge EV intergrated inverter. 

The Zappi EV charger is a great add on for both those with solar installations and for those without, as it will use grid power, or solar production, or both to charge your vehicle.

Our second option is the SolarEdge EV intergrated inverter which is perfect for those with an existing SolarEdge optimised solar system and those looking to install solar as it means saving the need to install both a solar inverter and an EV charger separately.  It will utilise the systems excess solar production to charge your vehicle, only taking from the grid if there is not an excess supply from the solar production.  If you have an existing solar system installed that is not SolarEdge, please contact us to discuss an EV charger best suited to your lifestyle and solar system. 

Does your house have:

• Metal conduit running to the sockets or lights
• Round pin plugs
• An inadequate fuse box
• Black outer rubber cable
• Cables chewed by rodents

Are you experiencing:

• Lights dimming at night

If you answered yes to some or all of these, your house’s electrical system may be unsafe and at risk of fire and should be rewired. 

Tasmania's older homes mostly have age-old wiring systems and now-obsolete fuse boards which function poorly to provide enough power supply to today’s latest home devices.

Whitney Electrical offer a professional service to disconnect your old home switchboard fuse boards and conduct switchboard upgrades and switchboard installation support, complete with safety switches ensuring you optimum electrical safety.  We can install a reliable circuit breaker switchboard installed for your house, unit, townhouse, apartment or business.

Do you have halogen downlights installed in your home?  Or old fluorescent fixtures in your office or commercial building?  These fittings are wasting your money and are a potential fire hazard.  As an alternative, we can install LED light fixtures and fittings to replace almost any type of light fitting. 

A typical return on this investment is under 2 years.  We like to use M-Elec’s range of LED light fittings.  For options, visit www.melec.com.au
