Heating on the north-west coast
Devonport reverse-cycle is a heating buy, compare quotes on heating output and efficiency at low temperatures, that's the whole game here.
Splits are the standard
Like the rest of Tasmania, high-wall splits room by room suit the housing stock and heat brilliantly.
Sea-air spec
Close to the water, ask for corrosion-protected units, the Bass Strait air carries salt.
Efficiency is the rebate
No standing TAS scheme, but a Devonport unit heats most of the year, the efficiency gap compounds on every bill.
