Frequently Asked Questions

What happens to the refrigerant during a heat pump replacement?

When we replace your heat pump, our team recovers the refrigerant from the old system using specialised equipment. Our careful process prevents the release of harmful gases into the atmosphere and complies with New Zealand’s environmental regulations. We will properly recycle or dispose of the remaining refrigerant according to industry standards.

Your new heat pump will come pre-charged with the correct type and amount of refrigerant to ensure its best performance. We’ll ensure the pressure levels are correct and make any final adjustments needed to ensure your heat pump replacement in Christchurch operates efficiently.

Will relocating my heat pump affect its warranty?

While heat pump relocation can potentially impact the warranty status, working with FAS Energy ensures this won’t happen. Most manufacturers’ warranties remain valid if relocation is performed by qualified technicians using approved methods.

We’re certified to work with all major heat pump brands in NZ and follow manufacturer-approved protocol during every heat pump relocation in Christchurch. Plus, we always keep detailed documentation of all work performed to help keep your warranty valid.

How long does it take to relocate or replace a heat pump?

We can complete most standard heat pump replacements in a single day, while complex installations with ducted systems can take 1-2 days.
