Adam & Kerri Daniels – like many young Australian families, were struggling to strike a balance between an increasingly stretched paycheck, their responsibility to the environment, and their precious time together.
In the face of increasing energy bills, particularly natural gas which had jumped to a cost of around $1,200 per year, they decided it was time to rethink their energy use and find a solution that would cost them and the planet less – without compromising their family’s lifestyle.
Enter the Emerald Heat Pump All-In-One, which not only delivered, but continues to delight the Daniels’ family 12 months on.
Lifestyle compatible
With a busy household, it was important for the Daniels’ to find a hot water solution that didn’t force them to compromise – especially at bathtime!
Via Emerald App, they are able to control their hot water supply and energy cost effortlessly, with Kerri sharing that
“the app is brilliant. We love making little tweaks to get the best out of our Heat Pump, and we feel like we’re on top of our usage and costs, which is really empowering.”
Boost Mode
In particular, the Daniels’ have made use of the Boost Mode feature, which Adam described as a “game changer”, especially when hosting extended family, when hot showers could previously be in short supply.
“It was nice having a reliable backup. We switched on the boost mode, and everyone had warm showers, no stress”
Environmental Impact
Switching from gas to electric, the Daniels’ have significantly reduced their carbon footprint, which with two young children brings huge comfort to Adam who said that
“knowing that we’re using cleaner energy makes a huge difference to us. It’s about leaving a better world for our kids.”
However, one surprise was the impact the All-In-One Heat Pump & Emerald App has on the entire family’s awareness of their energy consumption
“It’s not just about the savings, though they are significant. It’s about how the heat pump has integrated into our lives. The kids are more aware of our energy usage now too, and we feel good about doing our bit for the environment.”
Budget crunching
Perhaps the most powerful take away from the Daniels’ transition to the Emerald All-In-One, has been the significant reduction in their daily energy consumption and operating costs.
From the stress of ever increasing gas prices, to the security of energy efficient electric technology, Adam couldn’t be happier with the family’s new system which “most days operates at just $0.22 per day – which is just incredible. At this rate, we’re on track for an annual bill of around $100 once you factor in Winter heating. That’s about a third of what we were paying quarterly when we were on gas.”
Say no more.
