Running costs
About $1,239 a year back in your pocket
Based on a four-person Victorian household — roughly 4,500 kWh of water heating a year at 30c/kWh. At a COP of 4.6, this unit only needs about 978 kWh to do the same job. Run it on the timer through the middle of the day and most of that comes off your roof, not the grid.
Got rooftop solar?
Time the heat pump to soak up your daytime output
Every kWh you self-consume is worth 30c instead of the 3c feed-in you'd get for exporting it — that's the solar saving baked into the numbers below.

Straight talk
Our honest take on Aether
- Sharp pricing once VIC rebates come off
- R290 refrigerant — future-proof, low global warming impact
- Quiet enough for tight side-of-house installs
- Younger brand, so less long-term field history
- Fewer tank sizes than the big legacy names
