Brivis Ducted Heating: Why It’s a Favourite for Australian Winters
Here at Coldflow Heating and Cooling, we’ve been installing Brivis ducted heating systems across Melbourne for forever and we can’t say enough good things about them.
Designed and tested right here in Australia, Brivis units tackle our chilly winter mornings with the kind of reliability you really need when temperatures dip below 5c.
Why We Choose Brivis
1. Australian Tuned Performance
Brivis builds in “icedefrost” cycles that automatically clear frost from the heat exchanger even when it’s frosty outside. That means consistent warmth without shutdowns or lengthy defrost waits.
2. High Efficiency equals Lower Bills
With up to a 6 star rating on the Australian Energy Label, Brivis systems use noticeably less gas than older 3star heaters. We’ve seen some of our customers cut their winter gas bills by 15 to 25% simply by upgrading.
3. Comfort Zoning
Using Brivis multizone controls, you can heat the bedrooms before you wake up, warm the living areas just before guests arrive, and leave the guest wing off when it’s empty. Programmable schedules, smartphone integration and easy to read thermostats put you in full control.
4. Seamless Retrofits
If your home already has ductwork, Brivis units often slot right in with minimal changes to your ceiling or under floor cavity. That keeps installation time—and disruption—to a minimum.
