Did you know the Winter Energy Payment is back? From 1 May to 1 October, eligible Kiwi households receive a little extra help with their power bills, and it lands automatically with no application needed.

A top-up helps with the bill, but how you heat your home decides the bill. Hydronic underfloor heating turns your floor slab into gentle, even warmth from the ground up, with running costs of around $1.12 to $2.20 per square metre. Pair it with a hot water heat pump and you can save up to 75 percent on your hot water, too (source: Rewiring Aotearoa).

Your hot water cylinder might be the most affordable battery you will ever own.

RNZ reports that households with solar can use their electric hot water cylinder as low-cost energy storage, heating water during daylight hours rather than spending thousands on a home battery, with conservative estimates putting the savings at around $1,000 a year. Our 2in1 heat pump hot water cylinder takes that idea even further. It integrates directly with solar PV and lets you schedule up to three heating periods a day from your phone, so the sun does the heavy lifting while your power bill takes a break.

Does your Winter Energy Payment seem to stretch a little less each year?

You are not imagining it. As power prices keep climbing, that helpful top-up buys less warmth than it used to, and nearly a third of New Zealand households now feel the squeeze of staying warm. If your home runs on gas or diesel, there is a cheaper way to keep warm. Converting your gas or diesel system to an efficient heat pump for your hydronic underfloor heating means gentle, even warmth from the ground up, often at a fraction of the running cost.

If your home still runs on gas, here is something worth knowing.

This week the government announced it is helping businesses move off gas for good, against a backdrop of New Zealand's gas reserves falling 23 per cent in a single year and 12 of the country's 17 working gas fields expected to close within a decade. For families, that points to one thing: gas is likely to keep getting scarcer and pricier, while efficient heat pump heating and hot water just keep getting more affordable to run. Thinking about future-proofing your Canterbury home before next winter? Talk to us about switching your gas or LPG hot water and heating to an efficient R290 heat pump unit.

Are your power and gas bills creeping up each winter?

Independent research compared 13 different home heating systems and found that an air-to-water heat pump paired with rooftop solar delivered the best long-term value, with around 6% lower lifecycle cost and 17% less environmental impact than a modern gas boiler. A traditional gas or diesel boiler uses roughly 8,500 to 12,000 kWh a year, while a heat pump system uses just 2,100 to 3,300 kWh. With rooftop solar generating around 11,800 kWh on top of that, it adds up to a real difference for Canterbury households heading into another cold season.

Imagine enjoying the warmth rising up from the floor on the coldest Canterbury morning with your family. That is what hydronic underfloor heating delivers all winter long. Warm water circulates through pipes set in the concrete slab, turning the entire floor into a gentle, even heat source, with no cold spots and no noisy fans.

Power bills are on the rise across New Zealand, but your hot water costs do not have to follow. The Energy Networks Association confirms that heat pumps are three to four times more efficient than gas alternatives, and our 2-in-1 hot water heat pump puts that efficiency to work for Canterbury households, cutting hot water running costs by up to 75%. For a family of four, that can translate to around $900 saved every year on hot water alone. Find out if it is right for your home at warmth.nz or call 0800 477 778.

Last winter, 1 in 4 New Zealanders avoided turning the heating on because they couldn't afford it.

After power bills rose 12% in 2025, with a further ~5% predicted for 2026, it's no surprise that nearly half of all Kiwis are worried about their energy costs. But going cold shouldn't be the answer.

Warmth's hydronic underfloor heating runs on heat pump technology that's up to four times more efficient than conventional electric heating, keeping your Canterbury home comfortably warm all winter, without the sacrifice.

Is your hot water cylinder costing you more than it should?

According to EECA, heat pump hot water systems use 60–75% less electricity than standard electric cylinders — and over 10 years, they can cost 27% less than a conventional electric setup. That's a real difference on your power bill, year after year.

Warmth's 2in1 R290 Heat Pump Hot Water Cylinder takes that even further, with a COP of up to 5.2 and available in 210L, 270L, and 320L options to suit your household.

If your current cylinder is getting on in years, it might be worth a conversation. We're happy to help you work out whether it makes sense for your home.
