When it comes to choosing a heat pump in New Zealand, one brand consistently stands above the rest. Mitsubishi Electric has earned a reputation for reliability, performance, and innovation, making it the preferred choice for homeowners across the country.
At Bay of Plenty Heat Pumps, we are certified Mitsubishi Electric heat pump installers and service providers, proudly servicing Tauranga, Mount Maunganui, Papamoa, and the wider Bay of Plenty region.
Mitsubishi Electric is widely regarded as New Zealand’s top heat pump brand, regularly receiving Canstar awards for excellence, quiet operation, and long-term reliability. New Zealanders have trusted the brand for over 40 years, thanks to its consistent performance in our unique climate conditions.
Unlike many imported systems designed primarily for cooling, Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps are engineered with heating as the priority, ensuring dependable warmth through winter while still delivering efficient cooling in summer.
One of the key reasons Mitsubishi Electric stands out is its specialised technology developed for challenging climates.
Key innovations include:
• HyperCore heating technology, designed to maintain strong heating performance even in cold conditions (down to approximately –15°C)
• Advanced filtration systems that help improve indoor air quality
• High energy efficiency ratings that reduce running costs
• Exceptionally quiet operation, ideal for bedrooms and living areas
The brand’s development team draws on experience from aviation and aeronautics, applying precision engineering to create systems that are both environmentally conscious and highly effective.
While several excellent heat pump brands are available in New Zealand, Mitsubishi Electric consistently sits at the top of the list.
• Mitsubishi Electric – Frequently ranked number one, offering specialised technology, premium build quality, and outstanding heating performance.
• Daikin – A global leader known for energy efficiency, robust construction, and reliable performance.
• Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) – A strong performer and regular Consumer NZ People’s Choice winner, valued for reliability.
• Fujitsu – Well known for efficient, quiet systems and dependable operation.
Each brand has its strengths, but Mitsubishi Electric’s focus on New Zealand-specific conditions gives it a clear edge.
Selecting the right heat pump isn’t just about brand — it’s about matching the system to your home and lifestyle.
Important considerations include:
• Cold climate performance – HyperCore models are ideal where reliable winter heating is essential
• Efficiency and noise levels – Mitsubishi Electric units are praised for quiet operation and strong energy performance
• Budget and long-term value – While a premium investment, Mitsubishi Electric delivers excellent durability and lower lifetime costs
Some of the most trusted Mitsubishi Electric heat pump ranges include:
