Upgrade to Efficient, Reliable Hot Water with ATS
Looking for a smarter way to heat your home’s water? Assist Trade Services installs heat pump hot water systems across Auckland, helping homeowners upgrade from traditional electric cylinders to more energy-efficient hot water technology.
Heat pump hot water systems use heat from the surrounding air to warm the water stored in the cylinder. This makes them a practical option for households wanting reliable hot water, lower running costs, and a more energy-conscious solution.
Whether you are replacing an aging hot water cylinder, planning a renovation, or looking for a more efficient long-term water heating option, ATS can help assess your property and recommend the right hot water solution.
Why Consider a Heat Pump Hot Water System?
Traditional electric hot water cylinders can be costly to run, especially for busy households. A heat pump hot water system is designed to use electricity more efficiently by extracting heat from the air and transferring it into the water cylinder.
This can make heat pump hot water a strong option for Auckland homeowners who want:
- Lower hot water energy consumption
- A modern replacement for an older electric cylinder
- Reliable stored hot water for everyday household use
- A more environmentally focused hot water system
- A future-ready option that may work well alongside solar PV
- Professional installation from experienced plumbing specialists
