Price of the Reclaim Energy 315L heat pump hot water system with vitreous enamel (glass-lined) tank, or with a marine grade stainless steel tank
The out-of-pocket cost for a Reclaim 315L heat pump, installed, with a glass-lined (vitreous enamel) tank is $6,000 for standard installations, after we purchase the renewable energy certificates (STCs – Small-scale Technology Certificates) that come with the system for $900. However, if you are able to go the extra mile, we recommend the Reclaim Energy 315L heat pump with a marine grade stainless steel tank, the out-of-pocket cost of which is $6,750 for standard installations after we purchase the STCs for $900.
A standard installation means that
- You have a typical gas or electric hot water storage system located outside your house
- We are installing the Reclaim Energy heat pump in the same location
- The heat pump will utilise the existing plumbing.
- Running the electrical cabling to your switchboard is a straightforward process.
At the time of installation, we will ask you to assign the renewable energy credits from your heat pump installation to us.

Non-standard installations
If we are not replacing a standard electric hot water system, some additional costs may arise. This usually happens when the heat pump is to be placed in a different location to the previous hot water system, where it replaces a gas hot water system, or where the heat pump is to be located in a new house. Typical additional costs are for:
- A licensed electrician to provide cabling in more complex situations (e.g. 2-storey house or colourbond roofs (est. cost $100)
- A licensed plumber to connect the heat pump plumbing from a new location (est. $350).
