Victoria gas ban: why it matters for Sanden buyers

From 1 March 2027, gas hot water systems in existing homes must be replaced with an efficient electric alternative (heat pump) when they reach end-of-life. Repairs are still allowed. New builds already banned from gas connections since January 2024. Rentals also face mandatory replacement of gas heaters.

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

How much does a Sanden heat pump cost in Victoria?

A Sanden hot water heat pump costs $6,500 - $8,000 fully installed in Victoria before rebates. After stacking those rebates, most Victoria households pay around $3,510-$5,920 out of pocket.

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

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.

How does the Victoria gas ban affect my Sanden choice?

From 1 March 2027, gas hot water systems in existing homes must be replaced with an efficient electric alternative (heat pump) when they reach end-of-life. Repairs are still allowed. New builds already banned from gas connections since January 2024. Rentals also face mandatory replacement of gas heaters. A Sanden 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.
