` comment or the frontmatter block. Both are stripped from the build; `` is not. The booking calendar that used to sit here was removed on 2026-07-29 (Kees's directive + D01 2026-W31 plan §4 - see the frontmatter block above for the measured case against it). `compact` = 3 visible fields (name, phone, email) with the service preset from the page, which is the shape D01 §7 specifies for stage 1; the qualifiers are stage 2, on the post-submit screen, where they cannot cost the lead (D03 writes that copy - not yet wired). ⚠️ This form is the page's ONLY channel-attributed conversion: it posts to /api/quote with the stored UTMs and fires GA4 `generate_lead` + the Meta Pixel `Lead`. Take it off this page and paid traffic reports NOTHING to Meta or Google. That is not a cost, it is the measurement spine. Only ONE QuoteForm may render per page (the submit script binds the form by its id). */}

Tell Kees about your place

Three things is all we need to start. Kees will work out the right setup for your place before he rings you, so the first conversation is a useful one.

No obligation, and no pressure. Kees will call you himself once he's had a look.

Looking for a heat pump in Palmerston North or the wider Manawatū? A good heat pump is one of the best upgrades you can make to a local home. It keeps you warm through a cold Palmy winter, cools the place in summer, and does it efficiently so your power bill stays sensible. The catch is that a heat pump is only as good as the install behind it.

That is where we come in. We are registered electricians and HVAC-qualified, so the heat pump and the electrical work are handled by one trusted team. We size the system to your actual rooms, install it cleanly, and make sure it is set up to run the way it should. No guesswork, no mess left behind, and no pushing you toward the most expensive unit on the shelf.

Why it's worth doing right

Energy efficiency

A modern heat pump delivers several units of heat for every unit of power, so you stay warm for less through a Manawatū winter.

Year-round comfort

Heat in winter, cool in summer, from one quiet system you control room by room.

Better air quality

Built-in filtration helps reduce dust and allergens, and good models help manage moisture in the home.

"First Tech Electrical was amazing to deal with. He was very quick and efficient, with great pricing! He replaced a switch that had burnt out in our laundry, put a new heat pump in and replaced our old school circuit board. These upgrades have made a huge difference to our home. Thanks Kees for your awesome work, and we highly recommend First Tech Electrical. We will be using them again."

Ready to get sorted?

Flick us your details and Kees will give you a yell, then come to you. No pressure, no obligation.

We install trusted, reliable heat pump brands and recommend the right one for your home rather than a one-size-fits-all option. Because we are registered electricians, you get one team for the whole job, from the power supply to the final commissioning, all compliant with NZ regulations.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a heat pump cost to install in Palmerston North?

It depends on the size of the room, the unit you choose and how the install runs. The best way to get a real number is a free on-site quote, where we measure up and recommend the right system rather than guessing. We will always give you an honest price up front, with no surprises.

What size heat pump do I need?

Sizing comes down to the room volume, insulation, sun, and how you use the space. An undersized unit struggles in a Manawatū winter and an oversized one wastes money. We measure your rooms and size the system properly so it heats and cools comfortably without running flat out.

How long does a heat pump installation take?

A standard single-room high-wall install is usually done in a day. Multi-room or ducted systems take longer. We will let you know the timeframe when we quote, and we leave the site clean and tidy when we are finished.

Do you offer a warranty?

Yes. Your heat pump comes with the manufacturer warranty, and we stand behind our workmanship. We will walk you through exactly what is covered when we quote.

Should I get a few quotes before I decide?

Totally fair - it's a big call, so grab a couple if you want to. Where we're different is you get one team for the whole job, from the power supply to the final commissioning, so there's no electrician-versus-installer finger-pointing if something needs sorting later. We size it to your actual rooms, install it clean, and stand behind the work, so it's done right the first time. Happy to walk you through how our quote stacks up.

What if it's more than I was expecting to spend?

We get it - a good heat pump is an investment. We'll never push you toward the priciest unit on the shelf. We recommend the right size for your rooms and explain what you're paying for, so the money goes where it actually counts. A properly sized, efficient system also pays a bit of that back on your power bill every winter. If the number's a stretch, just say the word and we'll talk through the options with you.

I need to talk it over with my partner first - is that alright?

Of course - it's worth getting everyone on the same page before you commit. Our quote's valid for 14 days, so you've got time to chat it through with no pressure from us. If any questions come up while you're deciding, flick us a message and we'll sort them out. Whenever you're ready, we're here.
