When looking for options to upgrade our heating system I approached 3 different companies to put forward options and pricing, and from the moment I met Keven Henderson he stood out as somebody who knew heating systems and what would be the best option for us.
An itemised quote was received in a timely manner and Optum Plumbing and Energy Solutions were accepted as the contractor for the supply and installation of a new heat-pump hot water heating system to work with our existing underfloor heating system control panels and in-floor pipework.
The work was carried out and completed on schedule and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome, the final result in energy cost savings switching form a gas boiler to the new Heat-Pump system has more than halved our winter combined Electricity and Gas usage costs.

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.

I did a big build out in Dalefield. I paid top dollar to get the best of everything. However, I used different suppliers and I ended up with a system that wasn’t integrated, was difficult to use, and just didn’t achieve what was promised.
I got Kevin and Optum involved and they took action to integrate everything and actually make it work.
If I’d had them involved from the start I’d have saved tens of thousands of dollars and I’d have gotten what I wanted.
Don’t make the mistake I did!

Our architect had recommended electrical underfloor heating and whilst the initial capital cost was much less, Kevin convinced us to pay a higher initial cost and pay substantially less as running costs through the year. It took a little while to settle down, but to be fair that was due to incompetence from our electrician and when we got an electrician as competent as our plumber all was fixed and we are good now.

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
When we started planning our build we chose to work with Kevin and the team at Optum because they offered us the most innovative and responsible solutions.
The combination of solar, a smart Stiebel Eltron air source heat pump and a huge insulated hot water tank to efficiently store energy and power our under floor heating has been a revelation. Our lifestyle suits the use of solar and the efficiency of the hot water storage system combined with the solar has created savings that will see the extra cost of the system pay for itself in under 10 years.
We couldn’t be happier with the advice, installation and service we’ve received from Optum with this system.

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.
