Boiler to Heat Pump Conversion

Step Into a Warmer, Healthier Home.

Upgrade to a smarter, more energy-efficient heating solution for modern New Zealand living.

Upgrade your home heating with a smarter, more energy-efficient solution designed for modern New Zealand living.

Aqua Flame specialises in converting traditional boiler systems into advanced heat pump heating solutions that deliver reliable comfort, improved efficiency, and lower long-term operating costs.

Whether you’re replacing an ageing boiler or looking to modernise your existing hydronic heating system, our team provides tailored solutions designed around your home and lifestyle.

Modern Heating Designed For Efficiency

Older boiler systems can become expensive to run, difficult to maintain, and less efficient over time. Modern heat pump technology offers a more sustainable and energy-conscious alternative while still providing the consistent comfort hydronic systems are known for.

A boiler to heat pump conversion allows homeowners to retain the benefits of hydronic heating while upgrading to a cleaner and more energy-efficient heat source.

At Aqua Flame, we carefully assess your existing system to create a seamless conversion that improves both performance and comfort.

How Boiler to Heat Pump Conversion Works

The system upgrades your existing heating setup by replacing the traditional boiler with a modern energy-efficient heat pump.

Existing Boiler System

Older boilers can become inefficient, costly to run, and harder to maintain over time.

Heat Pump Installation

A modern air-to-water heat pump is installed to provide efficient heating using renewable energy from the outside air.

Hydronic System Integration

The heat pump connects seamlessly with existing underfloor heating or radiator systems.

Efficient Home Comfort

Enjoy consistent indoor warmth, improved energy efficiency, and lower running costs throughout your home.

Aqua Flame provides tailored boiler to heat pump conversion solutions designed to work seamlessly with existing hydronic underfloor heating and radiator systems. Our team carefully assesses your current setup to deliver a modern, efficient, and future-ready heating solution built for long-term performance and comfort.

Solutions for Every Build

In-Slab (New Builds)

The most popular choice for new homes. The pipes are tied to the reinforcing mesh before the concrete is poured. The concrete slab acts as a “thermal mass,” holding and radiating heat long after the system is turned off.

Screed Systems (Renovations)

Ideal for existing homes or floor-leveling projects. Pipes are laid on top of the existing floor and covered with a thin layer of specialized screed, allowing for a faster response time and minimal height increase.

Timber Floor Solutions

We use specialized aluminum spreader plates to ensure even heat distribution for joisted timber floors, bringing the luxury of underfloor warmth to traditional NZ villas and builds.

Do you have questions?

Yes. It works best with tile and polished concrete, but we also design systems for engineered timber, laminate, and carpet.
In-slab systems take a few hours to warm up but hold heat all day. Screed systems respond much faster, usually within 30–60 minutes.
No. Using water is more efficient than air. When paired with an Air-to-Water Heat Pump, it is one of the cheapest ways to heat a home in New Zealand.
Very little. A quick annual check of the manifold and heat pump pressure is all that’s needed to keep it running perfectly.
Yes. Smart Zoning allows you to set different temperatures for your living areas and bedrooms to save energy.
We use continuous PEX-a piping with no joints under the floor. It is designed to last 50+ years and is extremely secure.
