Healthy Homes Heating And Ventilation

Healthy Homes Heating & Ventilation Standard:
Get Compliant Before 1 July in Waikato

At Superheat Electrical & Air-Conditioning, we’re not just about keeping homes warm — we also ensure they breathe properly. The Healthy Homes Standards are a big deal for landlords across New Zealand, including the Waikato. If your property isn’t compliant with heating and ventilation requirements yet, now’s the time to act.

What Is the Healthy Homes Heating Standard?

The heating standard requires every rental’s main living room to have a fixed heating source that can heat the room to 18°C, even on the coldest days. That means:

A heat pump
A wood burner
A flued gas heater Or another approved fixed heater

Unflued gas heaters, open fires, and portable electric heaters don’t cut it.

What Is the Healthy Homes Ventilation Standard?

Proper airflow is essential for preventing mould and moisture — two major health risks. Under the Healthy Homes Standards, rental properties must have:

Working extractor fans in bathrooms and kitchens
Openable windows in living areas, kitchens, and bedrooms

At Superheat, we supply and install:

Kitchen Rangehoods that remove steam and cooking fumes
Bathroom Extractor Fans that reduce condensation and prevent mould build-up

We’ll make sure they’re the right size, properly ducted, and compliant with the Healthy Homes requirements.

Let us take care of your heating and ventilation needs in one go — no need to juggle multiple contractors.

Here’s what we offer:

On-site assessment of heating and ventilation needs
Heat pump installation
Rangehood and extractor fan installations
Ongoing maintenance to keep your property compliant year-round

Don’t Wait Until July 1!

Landlords have until 1 July 2025 to get their properties fully compliant. But if a new tenancy starts before then, you have only 90 days to get up to standard.

Excellent service and very professional team. They were friendly, arrived on time, and did a great job with the air-conditioning installation.

Paul and the team were amazing. They installed two Mitsubishi heat pumps for me and it was a challenging job being a plaster wall and difficult access for electrical wiring but they did it professionally and in a clever way that looked very beautiful. Their work is so tidy and I found them to be very knowledgeable. Christine was also so helpful in organizing a quote and the communication was excellent. I highly recommend Superheat electrical and air conditioning.

I had a great experience from start to finish with Paul and the team.

During the initial quote they were thorough and knowledgeable and could explain to me the recommended size and capacity heat pump for my space.

I loved that the quote provided me with three different models and it was easy to customise the quote online. Kristine was super responsive to my questions and even provided me with further models to compare.

The day of install was quick and smooth and I really appreciated the up to date communication. The house was left tidy and I’m so happy with the result. Cannot recommend enough! Thanks again!
