Hot Water Rebates, Tariffs & Savings

For Mount Erin households, the appeal of replacing old gas or electric hot water with a heat pump hot water system, solar hot water system or efficient electric hot water installation just keeps growing. Federal incentives in the form of Small‑scale Technology Certificates (STCs) apply to eligible solar hot water and heat pump units, effectively acting as an upfront solar hot water rebate or heat pump hot water rebate that reduces the sticker price. WA programs and retailer offers can add further discounts, and in some cases the combined hot water rebate wa savings can cut the installed heat pump hot water cost or solar hot water price by a substantial percentage. When you combine rebates with rooftop solar and smart controls like timers or solar diversion, payback periods can be shortened to just a few years, especially for families with higher usage. Even a modern electric hot water system rebate, where available, can tilt the numbers towards an all‑electric home and make electric hot water vs gas hot water an easy decision.

Many Mount Erin homeowners now ask for quotes that compare heat pump hot water price, solar hot water price and efficient electric hot water system options side by side so they can decide on the best hot water system Australia has to offer for their situation.
