I've decided to choose Aquatech Rapid/X6 after comparing similar products on the market, based on the actual needs of my house. I like the metal cover of the appliance and the its use of a current anode. It should last longer than some competitors. Hot water system is an important appliance that we don't have to have it replaced and broken down… Read more

easily.

I'm not sure about the wirings being next to the compressor, because I saw some water inside. I am a little worried about the rain, because the appliance is placed outside. Hopefully it'll be fine, since it's supposed to be an outside appliance. Despite Aquatech has a good reputation, I had some trouble when I tried to register for the warranty. There wasn't a link in their website/manual, where I can go and register my appliance. I emailed them, but didn't have their reply. I tried to call them but had a little trouble calling their 1300 no. The system asked me to press either 1,2,3 for different services, but it said there was not such an option after selecting all of them. I've tried twice, but the system still said no such options except for 9-listen to the options again. The good thing was I was allowed to leave a message and their call centre rang me back pretty soon. They helped me with my questions and emailed me the links.

I would have given a 5 stars rating if the process was smoother. I will keep an eye on the machine and give a follow-up review later. Hopefully, it'll be a reliable and efficient heat pump that customers can trust. Hope my experience will help the company improve mire and the potential customers when it's time for them to choose a reliable heat pump hot water system.

I had an Aquatech Rapid X6 heat pump installed on 20/02/2026, replacing my previous heat pump, which was only eight years old but had begun to show signs of internal rusting. The installation was excellent, organised by Tye from Same Day Hot Water Service in Melbourne, and I also received very good customer support from James at Aquatech’s Head… Read more

Office in Brisbane. It is, of course, too early to fully evaluate long term performance, but so far, the Aquatech Rapid X6 runs beautifully. I’m very happy with the hot water output as well as the low noise level of the unit. One of the key reasons I chose an Aquatech heat pump was the use of an impressed current anode to protect the tank, rather than relying solely on a sacrificial anode like many other brands. This means less maintenance and only a major service required every five years. So far, I’m very happy with the performance of the unit.

After deciding on the Dynamic X8, I contacted a couple of installers for quotations and found there was a significant price difference for the same product and I decided to go with Same Day Hot Water. My choice did not disappoint because Andrew from Same Day Hot Water did a fabulous job and even replaced a faulty power point at no additional… Read more

charge.

I’m very happy with the Aquatech Dynamic X8 heat pump so far, except for the app and Wi-Fi connection. I also found that the temperature and operation time setting procedures are not identical to those in the owner’s manual, which made it a bit frustrating to complete.

However, I didn’t bother connecting the pump to the app, as my phone already has too many apps.

After researching many different heat pump hot water brands, I finally decided to go with the Aquatech Dynamic X8 and I’m very happy with my choice. I have only had the system installed for about 10 days so far, but my experience has been very positive. The unit runs very quietly and provides excellent hot water. I chose Same Day Hot Water… Read more

Service to install the system and the whole experience was great. The team was friendly, professional and very efficient. The installation was completed quickly and smoothly.

Overall, I’m very happy with both the product and the service and would happily recommend them to others looking for a reliable heat pump hot water system.

Ordered it from the company Gaschill on the 23/02 and had it installed the next day, very happy with how quick they are. The installers (Liam and Jack) were very professional and communicated well with me. The installation itself was smooth and afterwards left the area very neat and tidy. The unit looks great, very happy with it. Show details

Although I expect to receive an incentive (a warranty extension) for submitting a review, to Aquatech’s credit there are no restrictions on the content — whether positive, negative or neutral. I deliberately waited nearly three months after installation (2 December 2025) before writing this review to allow sufficient time to assess performance. … Read more

### Pros ###

* I paid $1,450 after all discounts and rebates, compared to the full price of $3,780, for supply and installation of a new unit. * The system replaced an 18-year-old gas heater that was still operating reliably. However, given its age, replacement was likely inevitable and could have required an urgent action without access to rebates. * I noticed improved water flow (stronger shower pressure), although a heat pump is not expected to affect pressure. This may be coincidental or related to pipe configuration. * Hot water appears to reach outlets faster than with the previous system. So far, usage has been during summer months; performance in colder weather remains to be seen. * Since gas is now used only for cooking, my gas consumption has dropped significantly. At present, the bill largely consists of the daily supply charge. * The most significant benefit is the ability to schedule heating during peak solar generation. I set the timer to operate between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm. Once the tank reaches 60°C, the unit stops automatically. Based on summer performance since early December, I believe the system has had negligible to no impact on my electricity costs. This is largely due to solar generation; I do not expect the same outcome during winter. * We went for a slightly larger than recommended water tank capacity (X8 instead of X6) and have not run out of hot water once. * Noise levels are very low. Even in a quiet house, the unit is not noticeable. * Timer settings can be configured directly on the unit, without requiring Wi-Fi or a mobile application.

### Cons ###

* Shortly after installation, I experienced an issue connecting to the unit via the Tuya mobile app. After contacting support, it was determined that the Wi-Fi controller was faulty. On the flip side, 1) the replacement process was straightforward — the new controller was mailed to me, no questions asked and 2) the replacement process requires no technician visit. * The mobile application itself is not particularly user-friendly and can be unreliable. * The installer provided the owner’s manual and Wi-Fi setup guide, but did not offer verbal instructions. While this may not be an issue for someone comfortable with technology, less tech-savvy or elderly users may find initial setup challenging.

Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the unit’s performance to date and would recommend it based on my experience so far.

The Best supplier ever ! Friendly and helpful. And Rob, the installer Hes so passionate, clean , tidy and detailed. So happy ! Thank you Show details

Powrhouse process was smooth right up to installation of our AquaTech Dynamic X8, installers were on time, efficient, friendly and experienced, clean up after all work done. Recommend AquaTech & Powrhouse anytime, in fact 2 of my neighbors were interested after witnessing the installation, told them to contact Rob of Powrhouse. Show details

I’m very happy with this heat pump system. I can’t commebt on the customer settings available as I am happy with the default settings. But I can attest to its affordability and price point. There are many cheap heat pumps in the market which are poorly made and there are several high end systems that are rather over engineered. Aquatech seems to have found the sweet spot in the middle. Highly recommended. Show details

I am very happy with my aquatech heat pump after replacing a gas storage water heater. It’s been 2 months and is on eco mode since, I have noticed the energy consumption to be impressively low, and have had no issues with hot water supply for a household of 3 and additional 2 visitors for a couple of days during Xmas. I had heard concerns about… Read more

noise, but I must say this model is remarkably quiet. Rob did an excellent job with the installation, left the place very clean and tidy.

Absolutely loving this so far. Our old instant gas hot water system finally died and we were in a rush to get a heat pump installed. We managed to get the X8 installed and so far so good. It's keeping the water warm and no cold showers yet for 2 adults and 2 kids. Show details

Last week I bought an Aquatech Dynamic/X8 heat pump hot water system from Same day Hot water service for $2,450. We are extremely happy with the product. The system works perfectly, easy to program when you want the heat pump to set timer for temprature control, on off and other control. It is Highly recommend. Purchased in 3/02/2026 Show details

I had Aquatech Dynamic X8 installed in December 2025. I did lots of research before finalising this unit and I am really happy with my choice. It has really good connectivity via Tuya app and you can control everything from your phone. You can set the timer to turn it on and off. I was using instant gas hot water before switching to this unit and… Read more

my gas bill has been reduced significantly. I think I will recover the cost within 2 years. It is ready good unit without premium price tag. I am happy to recommend it to anyone who is looking for heat pump hot water system.

I'm really happy with my Aquatech heat pump. It was installed in mid December 2025 by Powrhouse. It replaced an old style gas HWS which was on its last legs. The unit provides plenty of water for me and I've set it to heat daily at 12 noon to maximise my solar output. This way I'm getting practically free hot water. The unit is relatively… Read more

quiet although I can hear it running from an inside bedroom. This isn't an issue for me but could cause disturbance for light sleepers if you either have a baby or need to run overnight. I did a fair amount of research before deciding on this unit. So far it's exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend the unit together with my installer Powrhouse

We just had install of Aquatech X8 system through Hitech Hotwater. We did quite alot of research and decided on Aquatech. Regarding System. We got an X8, about 3 hours after install got hot water. Have had showers and all works. Water Pressure is the same and shower is as hot as before with electric system. Noise level - sounds like Air… Read more

Conditioner working, we installed in pool yard next to filter, so noise level is no problems. In summary, we are happy - got hot water system out of the laundry which created space, system makes hot water so happy camper. Also, installers said they are doing lots of Aquatech, so I think we made the right decision.

On Christmas Day our gas storage hwu died! I did some research and aquatech heat pumps made the cut in terms of specifications. We selected the Dynamic x8 model. One of my main concerns about heat pumps is the noise factor, but I'm please to report that the noise (when it is actively heating) is not a worry to us at all. We had our unit installed by Darebin Trade Services who were great to deal with. Show details

Very happy with this Heat Pump. The installers, thru Powrhouse, were great. Very tidy job and no mess. The water flow is great and the water hot and it is quiet and using the power from the solar panels! Good follow up in answering questions Wins all around! Show details

I got Aquatech Dynamic X8 installed on the 20th of January. The installation team from the Same Day Hot Water Service contracted by 'Go Get a Heat Pump' - the dealer, did the installation quite efficiently in the morning between 8.20 and 11.10 am. The heat pump is running well with no issues so far. The heat pump runs only once in a day and the… Read more

water gets heated to 60 C within 2 hours and 20 minutes between 9 am to 11.20 am, now being the summer season in Melbourne. I am told it will take a bit longer to do so in winter. Since I have both solar panels and 20 kWh TNK battery installed, my usage from the grid is absolutely nil. If I keep the windows closed, I can't hear any noise at all from the running of the heat pump compressor. Even when the windows are open, the noise during the day time is not a negligible. I am quite happy with the way things are going right now. We get 5 year warranty on the tank, parts and labour plus an additional 2 years of the same following a review, either good or bad. As of now it all All Good. If there are issues cropping up in the future and are not addressed by the company promptly, I can probably give a revised version. Three people can take a shower and there is still hot water available the next day morning. Thanks Aquatech for a great product which did not cost me too much after rebates., $1600 all up, $150 more than the actual cost because I got a dedicated circuit installed along with the heat pump.
