Apricus Heat Pump Prices in Australian Capital Territory

A Apricus hot water heat pump is $3,000 - $3,250 installed in Australian Capital Territory before rebates. After Australian Capital Territory rebates and federal STCs, most households pay around $0-$650 out of pocket. Apricus is a Byron Bay company that built its name on solar hot water and now sells a single all-in-one heat pump, the 260L APHP-R290-260. Keeping to one model makes it simple to quote and to service. The tank is enamel-lined carbon steel with both a sacrificial and an electric anode, which is unusual at this price and helps in hard water areas. It runs on the heat pump alone from -7C to 43C.
