Why Choose Sustainable Home Upgrades?
Sustainable home upgrades are more than just eco-friendly choices. They are smart investments. Energy prices in Australia keep rising, and old-school appliances like gas heaters guzzle power. Upgrading to energy-efficient tech lowers your bills and shrinks your carbon footprint.
Plus, with government rebates and SLA’s cutting-edge products, these upgrades are easier and more affordable than ever.
Here’s why sustainable upgrades make sense:
- Save Money: Cut energy bills by up to $18,000 a year with SLA’s solutions.
- Boost Comfort: Enjoy a cosier home with better heating, cooling, and hot water systems.
- Help the Planet: Reduce carbon emissions and live greener.
- Future-Proof Your Home: Increase property value with modern, energy-efficient tech.
Ready to explore the upgrades that deliver? Let’s break them down.
1. Efficient Hot Water That Saves You Money
Hot water is a big chunk of your energy bill, sometimes up to 30%! Traditional electric or gas heaters are costly to run. SLA’s Heat Pump Hot Water System changes the game. It uses air warmth to heat water, cutting energy use by up to 80%. If you want, you can pair it with the best solar panels, and you are basically heating water for free.
Why It Pays Off
- Savings: Cut your energy bills by up to $1,275 a year.
- Longevity: Built to last with a 7-year warranty.
- Eco-Friendly: Lowers emissions with R290 refrigerant, which has minimal global warming impact.
- Rebates: Many Aussie states offer rebates for heat pumps, slashing upfront costs.
The Easy Way with SLA
SLA’s heat pumps are quiet, smart, and integrate with the Home Energy Management System (HEMS). You can control it from your phone, ensuring it runs when energy is cheapest. Installation is a breeze with SLA’s expert team, and our after-sales support ensures everything runs smoothly.
2. Energy You Can Count On, Day or Night with Battery Storage
Solar panels are awesome, but what happens when the sun goes down? Without storage, you are back to buying pricey grid power. SLA’s solar storage battery system stores extra solar energy for use at night or during blackouts. It’s like having your own mini power plant!
Why It Pays Off
- Savings: Cut grid reliance, saving thousands of dollars yearly, depending on usage.
- Energy Independence: Stay powered during outages.
- Scalable: Add more capacity as your needs grow.
- Long-Term Value: 10-year warranty means decades of savings.
The Easy Way with SLA
SLA’s batteries use advanced lithium-ion tech, perfect for Australia’s sunny climate. The batteries work with solar panels, EV chargers, and other SLA products for a connected, efficient home. Plus, SLA offers flexible financing and helps you navigate solar rebates.
3. Power Up Your EV from the Comfort of Home
Electric vehicles (EVs) are booming in Australia, but public charging stations can be pricey and inconvenient. SLA’s EV Charger lets you charge at home using solar or battery power. It’s fast, smart, and keeps your EV ready to roll.
Why It Pays Off
- Savings: Charging with solar costs $0 compared to $10–$20 at public stations.
- Convenience: No more waiting at chargers, just plug in at home.
- Eco Impact: Pair with renewable energy for zero-emission driving.
- Home Value: EV chargers are a hot selling point for future buyers.
The Easy Way with SLA
SLA’s charger balances energy use so it won’t overload your home’s system. It syncs with the HEMS app to charge when solar production is high or grid rates are low. SLA’s team handles installation, and government incentives can cut costs further.
4. AirCons: Stay Cool Without the Bill Shock
Aussie summers are brutal, and air conditioning can send your bills soaring. SLA’s Aircon units are energy-efficient split systems that cool (or heat) your home without breaking the bank. Our Aircons are designed to work with solar and battery systems for maximum savings.
Why It Pays Off
- Savings: Starts cooling in 30 seconds, so you save both time and electricity.
- Comfort: Quiet, efficient, and perfect for all seasons.
- Green Living: Cuts emissions when paired with renewable energy.
- Durability: Built to last with SLA’s top-notch support.
The Easy Way with SLA
SLA’s aircon units adjust automatically based on solar availability or cheap grid rates, thanks to the HEMS platform. They’re easy to install and backed by expert after-sales care. Rebates for energy-efficient appliances make it even more affordable.
5. Induction Cooktops: Cook Clean and Save
Gas stoves are bad for your wallet and the planet. They release harmful fumes and waste energy. SLA’s Induction Cooktops are electric, efficient, and safe.
They heat food faster and use less power than gas or traditional electric stoves. Induction cooktops heat up fast and give you precise temperature control.
And according to Energy Star, the usage is about 5–10% less energy than traditional electric cooktops. Also, roughly three times more efficient than gas.
What Makes It Great:
✔ Heats Up Fast
✔ Energy Efficient
✔ Built for Safety
Why It Pays Off
- Health Benefits: No toxic fumes, better for your family.
- Eco-Friendly: Supports SLA’s mission to electrify homes.
- Global Impact: SLA donates 5% of profits to clean cooking solutions in the least developed countries.
The Easy Way with SLA
SLA’s induction cooktops are sleek, easy to clean, and integrate with the electrified ecosystem. It’s just a perfect step toward a fully electric home. Installation is quick, and our team will guide you through rebates for switching from gas.
How SLA’s HEMS App Ties It All Together
What makes SLA’s upgrades extra special? We’re bringing our Home Energy Management System (HEMS) app. It’s going to be like the brain of your smart home. The app lets you:
- Track energy use in real time.
