Dux Heat Pump Prices in Victoria

A Dux hot water heat pump is $3,300 - $3,850 installed in Victoria before rebates. After Victoria rebates and federal STCs, most households pay around $630-$2,050 out of pocket. Dux has made hot water systems at Moss Vale in New South Wales for decades and is now part of the Noritz group. The Ecosmart DHC range is designed and manufactured in Australia and is on Solar Victoria's locally made list, which is what puts it in the higher Victorian rebate tier. Tanks are Y-class commercial enamel with dual anodes, and the 285L publishes a coefficient of performance of 4.63. The Pro-Series is a separate 270L model with a larger 3.6 kW heat pump.

Victoria gas ban: why it matters for Dux buyers

From 1 March 2027, if the gas hot water system in an existing owner-occupied home breaks and cannot be repaired, it must be replaced with an electric alternative; in a rental it must be replaced with a heat pump water heater. Repairs are still allowed and exemptions exist. From 1 January 2027, new homes must be built all-electric.

With 80% of Victoria homes connected to gas, planning your Dux replacement now lets you claim rebates and choose your installer on your timeline.

Dux in Victoria: FAQ

How much does a Dux heat pump cost in Victoria?

A Dux hot water heat pump costs $3,300 - $3,850 fully installed in Victoria before rebates. After stacking those rebates, most Victoria households pay around $630-$2,050 out of pocket.

What rebates can I claim on a Dux heat pump in Victoria?

On top of federal STCs (worth $600-$640), Victoria households can stack Solar Victoria Hot Water Rebate and Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) Certificates, taking total rebates to $1,800-$2,670. That is the biggest stack in the country, and most of it is automatic: STCs and the Victorian Energy Upgrades discount are already inside the price your installer quotes. Solar Victoria's rebate is the one worth going after on top, and your installer drives it. They lodge it with your quote, you add ID and proof of income, and it comes off your invoice on approval.

How does the Victoria gas ban affect my Dux choice?

From 1 March 2027, if the gas hot water system in an existing owner-occupied home breaks and cannot be repaired, it must be replaced with an electric alternative; in a rental it must be replaced with a heat pump water heater. Repairs are still allowed and exemptions exist. From 1 January 2027, new homes must be built all-electric. A Dux heat pump is a compliant electric replacement, and planning the switch before your gas unit fails lets you claim the rebates and choose your installer on your own timeline rather than in an emergency.
