Smart Solar Choices for New Homes
Go Electric, Not Gas
To get the most out of your solar system, we recommend avoiding gas and choosing electric appliances wherever possible. Solar can’t power gas, so going all-electric helps you save more and reduce future overheads.
Upgrade Your Hot Water System
We highly recommend opting for our hot water heat pump as your main hot water heater. This system is 3-4 x more efficient at heating your hot water compared to a normal hot water cylinder.
Plan for an EV Charger
Already have an electric vehicle or thinking about getting one? Installing an EV charger during the build gives you faster, smarter charging compared to a standard wall plug and uses your solar power too.
Green Loans
You can finance your solar system with 0–1% interest loans through most major banks.
It’s Simple:
- Provide your bank with our quote
- Apply for the loan
- Once approved, we’ll handle the rest.
As SEANZ members, we meet the requirements banks need, giving you access to low-interest finance with confidence.

Shaun and the team have been absolutely amazing to work with. No question was too stupid, no issue was too small. From start to finish extremely happy with the solar set up we have. Looking forward to those long summer days now knowing that we are producing our own electricity. Local to Hawke's Bay was a big plus for us as well. Thanks Shaun and the team. Highly recommend Eco Efficient. 10/10Posted on Google![]()

We are very happy with our system design and install. Throughout the entire process communication was great and everything explained thoroughly. Special mention to the install team who endured possibly the 2 coldest days of the year on our roof! The ongoing support available post install with meter changes and app help was a key in choosing eco-efficient and has been excellent.Posted on Google![]()

Deciding on solar is a process that brings up numerous options, jargon and technicalities that can quickly become confusing. Shaun at Ecoefficient solutions guided us through the process of choosing a system that suited us, vs simply achieving a sale. Shaun’s knowledge, expertise and common-sense approach as well as his patience with our questions provided us confidence and the communication throughout the install process was excellent. The install team were friendly, tidy and treated our install as though it was their own house. Very happy with the results and the system and have great confidence in knowing the service continues past the system being completed.Posted on Google![]()

After shopping around, we found Shaun and the team from Ecoefficient to be excellent to engage with and provide a comprehensive solution to meet all our requirements. When it came to the install, Shaun was great at problem solving some changes we needed to make to our meter box, and extremely accomodating with a last minute request for an EV charger to be added to the mix. The work completed by the installation crew is excellent, an extremely tidy and high quality install and set up, which we’re really happy with. Sam was great to deal with when it came to the installation day! Comms and post install support has also been great - the team kept us updated throughout the process and made everything seamless for us as a customer. With banks offering sustainability loan products and rates, it’s a great opportunity to unlock some cost efficiency and resilience and with a company like Ecoefficient you can’t go wrong! Thanks to Shaun and the team for a great experience and product!+0
