Installation, Servicing & Repairs
Trusted Residential Specialists
Whether you’re building a new home, renovating, or replacing an existing heating system, Ruapehu Refrigeration can help you find the ideal heat pump or air conditioning solution for your home.
With over 25 years of industry experience, Jason Constable provides expert advice, professional installation, servicing, and repairs throughout Taupō and the Central Plateau. Every home is different, so we take the time to recommend a system that suits your home’s layout, lifestyle, and budget.
Designed for the Central Plateau Climate
The Central Plateau experiences some of New Zealand’s coldest winters, with temperatures regularly dropping below zero. Not every heat pump performs efficiently in these conditions, making it important to choose a system designed to handle freezing temperatures.
Ruapehu Refrigeration recommends Mitsubishi Electric Heat Pumps, featuring Intelligent Defrost Technology that helps maintain reliable heating performance while reducing unnecessary defrost cycles. This means your home stays warmer when you need it most.
Whether you’re looking for heating, cooling, or both, we’ll help you choose a system that delivers maximum comfort and energy efficiency all year round.
Heat Pump & Air Conditioning Options
Hi Wall Heat Pumps
The most popular choice for New Zealand homes, hi wall heat pumps are compact, energy-efficient, and mounted high on the wall to maximise floor space. They provide reliable heating in winter and cooling in summer while blending seamlessly into almost any room.
Floor Console Heat Pumps
Perfect for homes where wall-mounted units aren’t suitable, floor console heat pumps are ideal for renovations and replacement of older heating systems such as fireplaces or night-store heaters. Their slimline design fits neatly against the wall while delivering powerful heating and cooling.
Multi Room Systems
Heat or cool multiple rooms using just one outdoor unit. Multi room systems allow you to connect different indoor units throughout your home, giving each room independent temperature control while reducing outdoor clutter. It’s an efficient solution that provides personalised comfort.
Ducted Central Heating & Cooling
Enjoy discreet, whole-home comfort with a ducted heating and cooling system. Hidden within your ceiling or underfloor space, these systems distribute conditioned air evenly throughout your home, creating consistent temperatures in every room. Ideal for new builds or existing homes undergoing renovation.
Ceiling Mounted Heat Pumps & Cassette Systems
If you’d like to keep your wall space clear, ceiling-mounted systems offer an excellent alternative. Choose from sleek ceiling cassette units that sit flush within the ceiling or suspended systems for larger open-plan areas and commercial applications.
