The difference between "Booster Mode" and "Eco Mode"
- Electric Backup Element: This feature ensures your hot water needs are always met, even during times of heavy demand or extreme weather. It activates as a secondary heating system, providing extra support when your heat pump alone can’t keep up.
- Eco Mode: Designed to reduce energy consumption and save on operating cost – it optimises the heat pump’s performance by using less electricity. While it’s a cost-saving feature, it doesn’t rely on the backup element unless absolutely necessary, keeping your system energy-efficient.
Together, these features provide a balance of reliability and efficiency to suit your needs.

My gas water heater works fine. Why should I upgrade to a heat pump?
Gas water heaters have been around for decades and are widely used in Australia for their reliability. However, with rising costs of gas, gas appliances are becoming extremely expensive to run, to the point that some are having to sacrifice their comfort in order to keep costs low.
At ENEFT, we strive to help every home enjoy the comfort of endless hot water without worrying about high energy bills. With our energy efficient hot water heat pumps, not only will you save more on energy bills, carbon dioxide emissions from your home will be significantly reduced.
We invite you to join our journey of advocating for cost effective, energy efficient and sustainable energy solutions for your home.
How much money will I save from upgrading to a heat pump?
Hot water usage can differ for each household as we all have different routines, household sizes and needs. Exact savings will depend on your household’s daily electricity and hot water usage; heat pumps can lower your energy bills by up to 75%, and are most effective when paired with a PV system.
How long does it take to install an ENEFT heat pump?
A standard installation typically takes between 2 to 4 hours, depending on the existing system and site conditions.
