If you’re planning to upgrade your home with an energy-efficient air conditioner or heat pump under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program, you’re likely asking:
“How long does the entire process take?”

At Greentastic Pty Ltd, we make it smooth and transparent for Melbourne and Victorian homeowners. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what to expect—from approval to final installation.


🔍 Step 1: Initial Enquiry & Eligibility Check (1–2 Days)

Once you contact Greentastic via phone or website, our team performs a quick eligibility assessment based on:

  • Your address and energy provider
  • Existing heating/cooling systems
  • Occupancy status (owner/tenant)

🕐 Timeframe: Usually within 24–48 hours.


📑 Step 2: Document Collection & VEU Form Signing (1–2 Days)

If you’re eligible, we’ll request:

  • Proof of residence/ownership or tenancy
  • A signed VEEC Assignment Form (required for all VEU installations)

Our team assists with digital documentation for faster turnaround.

🕐 Timeframe: 1–2 business days (faster with prompt cooperation).


🏢 Step 3: Scheduling the Installation (1–5 Days)

After receiving signed forms, we book your installation date based on:

  • Availability of stock (Split, Ducted, Reverse Cycle, or Hot Water Heat Pump systems)
  • Technician availability in your area
  • Access to your property

🕐 Timeframe: Usually within 3–5 working days.


🛠️ Step 4: Installation Day (Half Day to Full Day)

The actual air conditioning or heat pump installation is carried out by VEU-accredited electricians and plumbers. The system is tested, and your old unit (if any) is responsibly removed for recycling or disposal.

🕐 Timeframe:

  • Split system: 2–4 hours
  • Reverse cycle ducted system: 4–8 hours
  • Hot water heat pump: 2–3 hours

✅ Step 5: Post-Installation Compliance & VEEC Submission (1–3 Days)

Once installation is complete, Greentastic:

  • Conducts a quality check
  • Collects any final photos or documents
  • Submits your job to the VEU registry for certificate creation (VEECs)

🕐 Timeframe: 1–3 days (admin and processing)


🧾 Total Time from Approval to Finish: 5 to 10 Business Days

Depending on:

  • How quickly documentation is completed
  • Location & schedule
  • Type of system installed

💡 Greentastic Tip:

We recommend preparing documents in advance and being flexible with installation slots. This can cut the overall waiting time by 2–3 days!
