    What the VEU program covers in Bullengarook

    The Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program, run by the Victorian Government, helps Bullengarook homes move off old gas heating to efficient electric reverse cycle:

    • A discount of up to $5,530 applied directly to your invoice up front, not a rebate you claim back later.
    • Replace an old gas ducted heater with an efficient ducted reverse cycle system, or multi-head splits where ducting is awkward.
    • Heating and cooling in one system, usually cheaper to run than ageing gas, and far cheaper than LPG.
    • Open to every Victorian household, with no income test. Your home generally needs to be over two years old with an existing heater to replace.
    • We check eligibility, confirm your exact discount, handle the VEU paperwork and decommission the old unit.

    For the full picture on rebates and eligibility, see our main VEU energy upgrades page. If you need a service or repair rather than an upgrade, see gas ducted heating in Bullengarook.

    Rebate Amounts

    How much is the gas ducted heating rebate in Bullengarook?

    The discount depends on what you are replacing. Swapping a whole-of-home ducted gas heater for an efficient reverse cycle system attracts the largest discount in the program, because taking a ducted gas heater out of a Bullengarook home saves more energy over its lifetime than almost any other upgrade.

    What you are replacingDiscount off your upgradeYearly bill saving
    Ducted gas heating (whole-of-home) replaced or removed for an efficient reverse cycle systemUp to $5,530Up to $1,140 a year
    Non-ducted gas space heater (a single room or wall heater) replaced with an efficient reverse cycle systemUp to $1,610Up to $460 a year

    These are the maximum discounts published by the Victorian Government for the Victorian Energy Upgrades program. What you actually receive depends on system size, the model installed and the certificate price at the time, so we confirm your exact discount in writing before you commit.

    The discount comes off your quote, you are not chasing a refund

    This is the part most people get wrong. The VEU discount is applied upfront to the price of the job by an accredited provider. You do not pay full price and claim money back later, and you do not fill in a government form yourself. You pay the reduced amount, and we handle the certificates and paperwork behind the scenes.

    The savings are funded through Victorian Energy Efficiency Certificates, or VEECs. When an efficient system replaces an inefficient one, certificates are created for the energy saved, and those certificates fund your discount. Because certificate prices move with the market, the exact figure can shift over time, which is why we quote a real number rather than a headline.

    Eligibility

    Do Bullengarook homes qualify for the VEU rebate?

    Almost certainly. The program is open right across Victoria and it is not means tested. Here is what actually matters.
