| Maximise your Solar Investment !
If you install Solar Electricity but still have a std. electric HWS you are throwing easy money away. Maximise your investment and earn more money from the feed-in tarif by installing one of our high performance GAS/Solar or heat-pump hot water systems.
At Skyline Energy over the last 10yrs we've learned a lot about heating water. To us, solar hot water is not just about slapping some collectors on the roof - there are some really bad systems out there. We continually research, analyse, and develop better ways to do the job, so we can offer you only the very best systems.
There are many variables to consider before choosing the optimum system, it's a specialist job so please let us do that for you.
Change to Heat Pump or Solar NOW and cut rising energy bills
At Skyline Energy, we’re proud to have helped thousands of people reduce their power bills, and make sustainable living a part of their lives. Since 1999 we have also helped people learn more about the financial, lifestyle and environmental benefits of home-made energy.
If you want to Save Energy, Save on utility bills, AND get a rebate - DO IT NOW!
Heat Pump or GAS/Solar - we've got you covered, and big rebates available on both.

Australia's best evacuated-tube solar boosted systems with locally made marine grade stainless steel storage tanks, and Bosch GAS units. | |
If you have an existing electric system we will probably offer you a hi-quality hi-efficiency heat pump upgrade - either a locally made split-system with stainless steel tank, or a compact model with high quality enamelled tank.. |

Harnessing free energy from the sun - even in the dark!
Save Energy, Save Money, Cut Greenhouse Emissions, with the best Air Sourced Heat Pump
The solar hot water systems we're all used to seeing on the roof, are not always the best environmental solution!
Our 264-SS, 327-SS, and 300-MS heat pumps are uniquely quiet & efficient, using a small amount of energy to collect the abundant heat that the sun puts into the air we breathe, and may be the overall best system for your specific situation. Industry leading performance means higher rebates are available for our heat pumps.
Why we don't recommend Solar Boosted Electric systems:
Victoria State Government homeowner guide to sustainability (PDF) page 4, table 1.1, supports our claim that heat-pumps can have a significantly lower lifecycle carbon footprint than solar-boosted electric systems:
- avge heat pump produces 23 tonnes CO2 emissions
- avge solar-boosted electric produces 33 tonnes CO2 emissions

VICTORIANS are facing a year of costly bill increases . . . energy companies increase standard prices by between 18 and 28 per cent on January 1, adding up to $400 a year to a typical household's electricity bill.

In other areas results may vary, but in almost all conditions, our264-SS, 327-SS, & 300-MS heat-pumps
will outperform other heat-pumps and solar boosted electric systems.

Conventional Solar-Boosted Electric Hot Water systems actually rely on inefficient Electric-Element boosters - especially when you need it most IN WINTER!
A heat pump will:
- NOT put you at risk
- ensure your water ALWAYS reaches and maintains safe temperature
- kill or prevent harmful bacteria
- save you money
You don't have to worry about leaving the booster off - there isn't one.

Our 264-SS & 327-SS high efficiency, long life, split-system heat-pumps are accredited for solar rebates, nothing on your roof, robust, more efficient, and simple to install. Our 300-MS compact heat pumps offer a great low-cost alternative, but still with great overall efficiency.
If you currently have an off-peak electric hot water service, the best solution is to upgrade NOW - to one of our sensational heat-pumps (or if you have GAS available, perhaps a solar boosted gas system)

GAS/Solar Hot Water systems:
Latest Evacuated Tube Technology with over 48 metres of copper heat absorber in every Evacuated U Tube Solar Collector module !!
Each solar collector module has no removable connections, so no possible leaks, and is maintenance free. The solar heat generating evacuated glass tubes are just sleeves that push over the copper U tubes. The high heating efficiency of the U Tube design is obtained because the water flows into the manifold AND down and up each and every evacuated U Tube, unlike other evacuated tube solar collectors.
Under ideal conditions, a good solar boosted hot water system can provide almost free hot water for 3 or 4 months of the year - depending on location and usage. When conditions are not ideal and/or if your hot water requirement can not be fully met and the outgoing water temperature falls below safe levels, the system will operate its heater.
Big rebates for Solar Hot Water systems still available!
Thanks to solar rebates the overall implementation cost of these systems is reduced substantially - while the rebate lasts. If you are considering changing to solar there's no time like NOW!
If you have a natural gas HWS, or are living off the grid (RAPS systems), then we will probably recommend an upgrade to our new range of evacuated tube solar boosted GAS/LPG systems.
(If you have access to reticulated gas but have problems like shading, inappropriate facing or insufficient roof space, then perhaps a high efficiency heat pump should be considered)
We don't recommend solar boosted electric systems as our heat pumps are generally cheaper overall to buy, install and operate, and can be environmentally a better solution.
Note: Solar Tube systems are not suitable at all for Hydronic Heating - We have other options for hydronics - see below.

Each collector module has 16 tubes.
Each system has 2 or 3 modules |

Commercial Solar Hot Water without roof panels:
When it comes to producing large mounts of solar hot water, there is no better alternative than a commercial sized heat-pump.
Virtually unlimited amounts of efficiently heated low cost hot water. Reduce your overheads whilst producing much lower carbon emmissions.
"Burning GAS releases heat up the flue into the atmosphere, an air-sourced heat pump recycles heat from the air into water for your benefit"
Warning: Never buy a heat-pump that has an electric element - check first! |

Instant Hot Water:
Save money and save water by installing a "Smart" ring-main circulating pump for instant hot water throughout your home
If you are building a new home - this is a MUST HAVE
Models now available for ALL homes, even with instant GAS systems or solar systems.

Hydronic Heating systems - Never be cold again
If you've ever experienced the luxury of a heated floorslab, or stepping from the shower into a warm towel, on a cold winters day, you'll know why Hydronic Heating systems are becoming very popular.
There are no drafts from forced air movement, you are just gently bathed in a warm environment. It's safe for all the family and great for people with allergies.
Water can be heated by GAS, LPG,
Solar, Ground-Sourced (Geothermal) Heat Pump, Water-Sourced, or Air Sourced Heat Pump. For Australian conditions we generally recommend Air Sourced Heat Pumps as they provide the greatest overall sustainability and cost efficiency.
Skyline Energy pioneered the use of air sourced heat pumps for hydronic heating and continue to lead the field.
Skyline Energy Cold Climate model air sourced heat pumps are the trusted name in non GAS hydronics throughout Australia, and despite what you may have heard can efficiently heat water hot enough for hydronic heating radiators and towel rails!
We supply and install hydronic heating systems in most areas:
Warning: Never buy a heat-pump that has an electric element - check first!
Air Sourced Heat Pumps with Optional Twin Functionality
Want to heat your pool too ? - we can make our air sourced heat pumps with twin heat exchangers . . . heat the house and the pool with the same heat pump!
Swimming Pool Heating with air sourced heat pump
Why have a swimming pool that you can only use 3 or 4 months of the year? Skyline Energy can get any pool to 26-28oC,(or higher) and keep it there for you to enjoy all year round.
Benefits of using air sourced heat pumps include Reliability, and Low Running Costs, regardless of weather conditions.
Excellent choice for area's not serviced by Natural Gas - Running costs typically 1/4th the running cost of an LPG heater.
