F.A.Q
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are RECs and STCs, what are they worth? And how many do you get with your Sanden?
What are STCs and how many do you get with your Sanden?
The purchase and installation of a Sanden Eco® Plus Hot Water Heat Pump entitles you to Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) – formerly known as Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). For more information: visit www.environment.gov.au/climate-change and www.cleanenergyregulator.gov.au
The Sanden HWHP achieves the highest level of STCs of any hot water heat pump, currently available in Australia, and these are as below:
To find out which zone your postcode is in click here (note this may change so if in doubt contact the clean energy regulator for more information)
The Table below shows how many STCs are available for each Sanden model in each STC Zone
How much are STCs worth?
STCs can be priced through the Government's STC clearing house or on the open market at places like Green Energy Markets.
So say you bought a Sanden GAUS-250FQS and you lived in zone 4 and the current STC price was $35
The total discount you would receive would be: 34 STCs x $35 = $1,190.
So you would receive a discount of $1,190 off the total price of your Sanden unit (note this is an example only to illustrate how STCs are calculated the actual discount will vary depending on the current STC price).

Should I get the official Sanden Quick Connection kit 15mm or 20mm?
The Sanden Quick Connection Kit includes the tempering valve, ECV (Expansion Cold Water Valve), elbows, insulation gloves for all the elbows and valves so you have the most efficient set up - you can't buy the insulation gloves separately. Makes the plumbing install much quicker (plumber only needs to source copper + lagging for the copper). Always highly recommended to ensure the Sanden is installed to specifications
Normally a house with upto 2 bedrooms is 15mm and 3+ is 20mm.

Why does the Sanden Eco® Plus use CO2 as its working gas? Isn’t CO2 a greenhouse gas and therefore harmful to the environment?
Why does the Sanden use CO2 as its working gas, what is the benefit?
- There is far less environmental impact (i.e. No ozone layer depletion and minimal global warming) than other commonly used refrigerants, should the system leak.
- There is a much higher efficiency, thereby allowing more heat to be transferred to the water, for less energy used (i.e. Excellent thermodynamic ability).
Isn't CO2 a greenhouse gas and therefor bad for the environment?
While it is true that Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is a greenhouse gas it has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 1. Whereas refrigerant gases in other heat pumps can have GWP of over 10,000, which means if they leak to the atmosphere they contribute 10,000 times more to global warming compared with the refrigerant gases used in a Sanden Eco Plus.
The table below shows the GWP for some common refrigerant gases (note: GWP must include a time interval over which the greenhouse gases act, in this case 100 years)
Our system utilizes less than 1 kg of R744 (CO2) as a refrigerant contained in a closed system at the factory. The installer does not need to charge the heat pump on site.
- There is far less environmental impact (i.e. No ozone layer depletion and minimal global warming) than other commonly used refrigerants, should the system leak.
Features & Benefits
# Heat Pump Unit
✓ A high Coefficient of Performance (COP=5^) results in significantly reduced energy use and CO2 emissions
✓ Up to 50% faster heat recovery than currently available Hot Water Heat Pumps.
✓ Whisper quiet operation, with industry leading noise level of 37dB - very neighbour friendly!
✓ Uses unique Ozone friendly R744 (CO2) refrigerant
✓ Simple installation by Plumber & Electrician, with no Refrigeration Mechanic required
✓ An automatic heating cycle, which makes it perfect for use with power generated by on-roof photo voltaic (PV) solar electric systems.
