Upgrading your home’s energy systems is one of the most powerful ways to reduce your power bills, improve comfort, future‑proof your property, and meet New Zealand’s fast‑evolving housing and rental standards.

At THS, we specialise in complete whole‑home energy upgrades — from hot water systems, solar power, heating, insulation, and double glazing, right through to ensuring full Healthy Homes compliance for rental properties.

We design integrated upgrade packages that transform older homes into warm, dry, energy‑efficient spaces that cost less to run year‑round.

Hot Water Upgrades Simple installs, Lasting results

Hot water is one of the biggest energy users in NZ homes — and upgrading your system can dramatically reduce running costs.

Heat Pump Hot Water Cylinders

Modern heat pump hot water systems use up to 70% less electricity than standard electric cylinders, making them one of the most efficient ways to heat water in New Zealand homes.

Benefits include:

  • Up to 60–70% reduction in water heating costs

  • Lower carbon emissions

  • Works in all NZ regions, even cooler climates

  • Can integrate with rooftop solar for even greater savings

Modern Electric Hot Water Cylinders

If you’re not ready for heat pump technology, upgrading to a new insulated electric HWC still greatly improves efficiency and reliability and avoids the emergency “my cylinder just blew” scenario.

These can now be located outside - giving your more space for storage inside.

We help you choose the best system, size, and location — and handle all plumbing and electrical changes in-house.

Solar Power Installation Clean Energy, Lower Bills

Solar has become one of NZ’s fastest‑rising home upgrades as technology improves, regulations evolve, and financing options expand.

Households with solar can save more than 50% on power bills when paired with smart timing.

We design and install:

  • Grid‑tied solar systems

  • Hybrid solar (battery‑ready)

  • Full solar + hot water heat pump combos

Our solar packages include system design, electrical work, safety upgrades, and council compliance where required.

Heat Pump Heating Systems Efficient Heating & Cooling

Heating is one of the largest household energy expenses. Heat pumps remain the cheapest and most energy‑efficient way to heat NZ homes. According to EECA, heat pumps are far more efficient than electric or gas heaters.

We install:

  • High‑wall heat pumps

  • Floor consoles

  • Ducted whole‑home systems

  • Smart‑timed heating integration (pre‑warm cycles, off‑peak optimisation)

Insulation Upgrades The Foundation of Energy Efficiency

Good insulation is one of the most cost‑effective home upgrades.
Under NZ law, ceiling and underfloor insulation has been compulsory in all rentals since 2019, and existing insulation often needs topping up to meet modern R‑value requirements.

Insulation improvements include:

  • Ceiling insulation top‑ups or replacements

  • Underfloor insulation

  • Wall insulation

  • Ground moisture barriers for enclosed subfloors

  • High‑R‑value upgrades for colder climate zones

Insulation reduces heat loss, stabilises indoor temperatures, and significantly lowers heating bills.
