SunPath Electricals is a New Zealand-owned company based at 2/86 Brougham Street in Te Aro, Wellington, offering solar power, residential electrical work and heat pump & HVAC systems through one coordinated team. Rather than juggling separate installers and contractors, homeowners deal with a single, accountable point of contact, with the hands-on work delivered by a network of licensed, EWRB-registered electricians and certified installers covering the Wellington region, the Kapiti Coast and the Wairarapa.
The solar side covers rooftop systems, battery storage, EV charger integration and commercial solar, with every system designed around the roof, the household's usage and the budget. Panels are premium, high-efficiency modules — sleek all-black 400–460 W panels for homes and high-output 550–700 W modules for commercial and rural roofs — backed by manufacturer warranties commonly running 25 to 30 years. Electrical work ranges from new power points, light fittings and smoke alarms to switchboard upgrades, full rewires and fault repairs, all carried out to New Zealand's wiring regulations and certified on completion.
On the comfort side, SunPath supplies, fits, services and repairs all major heat pump and HVAC systems: single high-wall units, multi-room setups, ducted central heating and cooling, home ventilation and hot water heat pumps. Every job follows the same simple path — a free consultation, a transparent fixed quote with no pressure, a tidy install by registered professionals, and ongoing aftercare backed by a 10-year workmanship guarantee from the date of the Certificate of Compliance.
Quotes are free and no-obligation, and enquiries are answered within one business day. Hours are Monday to Friday, 8am–6pm, with Saturdays available by appointment. Call +64 27 580 0646, email [email protected], or send a message through the website.
SunPath Electricals is a New Zealand-owned company working from 2/86 Brougham Street in Te Aro, Wellington, with a straightforward pitch: one trusted team for solar power, residential electrical work and heat pump & HVAC systems. Rather than asking homeowners to find, brief and manage three separate contractors, SunPath coordinates licensed, EWRB-registered specialists across all three trades and stays the single point of contact from the first quote to long-term support.
The company's work falls into three connected areas. On the solar side, it designs and installs rooftop solar systems, battery storage, EV charger integration and commercial solar, tailoring each system to the roof, the household's usage and the budget. On the electrical side, its EWRB-registered electrician partners handle everything from a single new power point to a full rewire — switchboard upgrades, lighting and power points, smoke alarms, faults and repairs. On the comfort side, it supplies, fits, services and repairs all major heat pump and HVAC systems, from single high-wall units to ducted central heating and home ventilation.
Because the same team coordinates all three trades, combined projects are a specialty: a household can have solar panels installed, an ageing switchboard upgraded and a heat pump fitted, all under one quote and one accountable contact.
Solar is where SunPath does much of its talking. The company installs premium, high-efficiency panels backed by strong manufacturer warranties — commonly 25 to 30 years — with sleek all-black and half-cut modules of 400–460 W for homes, and high-output and bifacial modules of 550–700 W for commercial and rural roofs. Battery storage lets households use their own midday power at night instead of buying it back, and keeps key circuits running during a power cut, while smart EV chargers draw on home-grown solar for near-free kilometres.
For businesses, the argument is timing: commercial customers use most of their power in daylight, exactly when panels generate, so solar cuts one of the biggest overheads. Homeowners who want a rough idea before committing can use the solar savings calculator on the SunPath website, which estimates annual savings, recommended system size, payback period and CO₂ avoided from a few simple inputs — with an exact figure following a free, tailored quote.
All electrical work is carried out by the EWRB-registered electricians SunPath partners with, and is certified on completion as New Zealand's wiring regulations require. The everyday list covers new power points and switches, extra outlets where they're needed, ceiling lights, downlights, outdoor lighting and fans, and smoke alarms fitted in the right places. Bigger jobs — switchboard upgrades and full rewires for renovations and new builds — sit alongside quick fault-finding and repairs.
Heat pumps are the third leg. A modern heat pump warms a room in minutes and runs for a fraction of the cost of a plug-in heater; multi-room systems let the lounge, bedrooms and office each hold their own temperature from one outdoor unit; and ducted central systems hide the hardware entirely behind discreet ceiling vents. Home ventilation systems tackle damp, mould and foggy windows by swapping stale, moist air for fresh, drier air, while hot water heat pumps can use up to three times less energy than a standard electric cylinder. A quick yearly service protects warranties, keeps running costs down and catches little issues early.
The process is deliberately simple. It starts with a free consultation — tell SunPath what you need and they assess the home and recommend a solution. Next comes a transparent, fixed quote with no hidden surprises or pressure. Licensed, registered professionals then complete the work safely, tidily and on schedule, and warranties, servicing and aftercare follow for the long haul. Installation workmanship is guaranteed for ten years from the date of the Certificate of Compliance, and payment is typically staged across deposit, progress and completion.
Customer feedback on the site reflects the model: Wellington customers describe combining solar and a new switchboard as "one team, one quote, no fuss", and praise electricians who arrived on time, worked tidily and explained everything clearly.
