Heating & cooling at a glance
- Water heating: constant hot water without constant costs.
- Radiators: zoned heating with optimal control.
- Underfloor heating: regular temperatures across the whole slab of your home.
- Ambient heating: radiant heat from your ceiling, the ultimate luxury.
- Wood & gas fires: cost-effective for small-medium areas.
- Air conditioning: an air-based system like a high wall unit or forced air from vents in the ceiling or walls.
- Ambient cooling: water-based system, where a heat pump cools the warmer water from underfloor or ceiling pipework over time, extracting the heat from the room and returning cooler or chilled water back to the floor or ceiling.

Optum Plumbing Wanaka are certainly one of the most professional and skilled subcontractors we have ever worked with, not only as individuals but a company who prides itself on working as a team.

Level Construction & Project Management
Just wanted to convey our thanks to you and your team for your contribution to our project. It has been, overall, as straight forward as it could possibly have been-although the complexities of an off grid system have at times seemed daunting! Kurt and all the others have always been obliging and helpful-including with the ongoing fine tuning of the system.
Kate & John Wood
We made the right choice using Optum for our plumbing. Our rural block and non-standard heating system were well designed and the team went above and beyond to fine-tune and have it working as we wanted. We learned that plumbing is not an area to cut costs and it really makes a difference having a team who are skilled and familiar with complex systems and new technologies. We would certainly use Optum again.

Kevin Henderson (Optum Ltd) did all the plumbing work for our house in Bannockburn, built in 2007. Kevin and his staff brought a high level of expertise to what was a complicated job, which included solar and gas installation, under floor heating, storm water reticulation, and plumbing of kitchen, laundry and bathrooms.
They were a pleasure to have on the job and Kevin ensured that all work was done in a timely manner. The back up and maintenance provided by Optum since the house build has been excellent. Kevin stands by his work. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin and his firm. He offers clients integrity, expertise and a professional approach.

Optum carried out the plumbing, gas and drainage services for our latest project in Wanaka. The work was of the highest standard with great communication throughout the project. Their work is the tidiest we have ever seen. We would have no hesitation to recommend Optum to all future clients.

We had a complex build in Wanaka for our home.
Optum service was excellent and of the highest quality critical to the success of the build.
After completion when further extensions were planned also they were interested efficient and approachable in their service with a total professional standard.
Both Isabelle and I would highly recommend them to any person contemplating a build, extension or repair.

I’d just like to say thanks for the prompt service and the two tradesman/persons did a great job and were a pleasure to work with! As I’m not a builder from the area I have given my clients your details for any work they may need done in the future.

McHugh Building
We have an Optum designed heating system installed in our new home which was completed in November 2021. We wished to include a Solar PV heating system in our new house and Optum Plumbing was recommended to us as a local specialist.
We consulted Optum early in our design phase. At all stages of the project, Optum owner, Kevin Henderson was generous with the time he spent with us to ensure we had a good understanding of our system. Following installation, we have also enjoyed excellent back up service from Optum. Kevin and his team are knowledgeable and approachable and we are happy to recommend their services.

You guys are "crazy good."Let's start with your receptionist. The phone was answered quickly and cheerfully. That is so pleasant these days.We rang about a small but important job on Monday 4 March. It was fixed by the end of the day, by Julien Lopez.He was very proficient, and took the initiative to check other fittings that may have caused future problems. Julien's personal demeanor towards us was excellent.We also had Sam fix our solar panel in early February. Same thing. Sam's work was very thorough. He saw things that the initial installer had not fitted. He has a relaxed personality and took away our anxiety.You are "crazy good" because Wanaka has experienced a building "boom" during the ten years that we have lived here.This has made it difficult to find people to do repairs, yet you seem to manage that. You told us when it would happen and stuck to that arrangement. The pricing was reasonable too. We have been left with such a good feeling of confidence in your company.Thank you so much for how you operate, and the standards that underpin you and your company.Gavin Craig & Una Connolly
