What Is the Split System Rebate in Victoria?

The Split System Rebate is offered under Activity 6 – Space Heating & Cooling of the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program.

It is designed to:

• Reduce household energy bills
• Improve indoor air quality
• Lower carbon emissions
• Reduce peak electricity demand across Victoria

By upgrading to an energy-efficient reverse cycle split system, Victorian households can significantly cut heating and cooling costs while contributing to a more sustainable future.

What Is a Split System?

A split system air conditioner has two main components:

• Indoor unit – Installed inside the room
• Outdoor unit – Installed outside the home

These systems heat or cool individual rooms or zones, making them highly efficient and cost-effective compared to traditional ducted or gas systems.

Why Are Reverse Cycle Split Systems So Popular?

• 3x to 6x more energy efficient than older systems
• Provide both heating and cooling
• Zoned temperature control
• Lower running costs
• Reduced greenhouse emissions

With a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of around 300%, households can potentially save up to $600 annually on energy bills.

Air Conditioning Rebate Overview

⚠️ Final rebate amounts depend on system size, energy rating, certificate pricing, and installer accreditation.

For example, replacing an old ducted gas heater with a multi-split reverse cycle system (10kW outdoor unit) could qualify for rebates of up to $2,800.

Why the Victorian Government Offers This Rebate

1. Energy Efficiency Goals

Victoria is committed to reducing state-wide energy consumption through the VEU program.

2. Lower Carbon Emissions

Energy-efficient split systems consume less electricity, helping Victoria move toward its net-zero emissions target by 2050.
