Check If Your Home Qualifies

Answer a few quick questions and we'll tell you exactly what you'd pay for a heat pump after the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant.

Question 1 of 4 0% complete
Question 1
Do you own and live in the home?
The grant is for owner-occupiers only. Renters and landlords are not eligible for the heating grant.
Question 2
Was your home built before 2008?
Most North Shore villas, bungalows and older homes qualify. If you're not sure, check your LIM report or ask Craig when he visits.
Question 3
Do you have a Community Services Card or SuperGold Combo card?
Card holders get the maximum grant regardless of where they live on the North Shore. If you don't have a card, your street still might qualify by area.
Question 4
Do you already have a fixed heater in your main living area?
This includes an existing heat pump, wood burner, pellet burner, flued gas heater or central heating. If yes, you won't qualify for the heating grant.

Based on your answers, your home is unlikely to qualify for the Warmer Kiwi Homes heating grant. But that doesn't mean you can't get a great heat pump at a fair price. Craig and the team install across the whole North Shore and will give you a straight-up price with no surprises.

If anything changes, like getting a Community Services Card in future, the grant is still available until June 2027.

Warmer Kiwi Homes Questions We Get Asked All the Time

How much does the Warmer Kiwi Homes grant cover?
+
The heating grant covers up to 90% of the cost of an approved heat pump, capped at $3,450 including GST. Community Services Card and SuperGold Combo card holders get the maximum grant. Most eligible homeowners pay between $400 and $700 out of pocket for a standard high wall install.
Does my North Shore home qualify?
+
Don't assume your suburb is too wealthy to qualify. The EECA eligibility maps work on individual meshblocks, not whole suburbs, and they're updated every year. Plenty of streets in Birkenhead, Northcote, Glenfield and Beach Haven qualify. But even streets in Takapuna, Devonport and Milford can qualify depending on the specific meshblock. If you have a Community Services Card or SuperGold Combo card, your location doesn't matter at all. You qualify regardless of suburb. Don't leave that money on the table without at least checking. Check your address on the EECA website →
Can I get the grant if I already have a heat pump?
+
No. If your home already has a working heat pump, wood burner, flued gas heater or central heating system in the main living area, you are not eligible for a heating grant. The grant is for homes that currently have no fixed heating in the living area.
How long does the Warmer Kiwi Homes programme run?
+
The Warmer Kiwi Homes programme has been extended and is currently funded until June 2027. However, funding is limited and spots fill up, particularly in winter when demand spikes. If you think you might qualify, it's worth checking sooner rather than later.
