Support in Australia
In April 2025, Apricus recalled All-In-One units made in November 2024 and sold between 9 December 2024 and 31 March 2025: a batch fault could make the tank fall over under high internal pressure. Owners of affected serial numbers get a free replacement and reinstallation.
Strengths
- 6 years parts and labour
- Quiet for an all-in-one, at 43 dBA
Watch for
- Some 2024–25 units recalled: check your serial number
- One size only
Our take
A quiet all-in-one with a good warranty. If you own one installed between December 2024 and March 2025, check your serial number against the recall.
Before you buy
- Check the exact model is on the Clean Energy Regulator’s register, which sets its STCs, and, in Victoria, eligible for the Solar Victoria rebate if you want it.
- Plan where it goes. A heat pump needs airflow and makes some noise, so keep it away from bedroom windows and your neighbours’ fence.
- Ask about your water. Warranties can exclude very hard or salty water, and unfiltered bore or rain water, so check yours is covered.
- Compare quotes from hot water retailers near you, and read heat pump vs solar hot water.
