Heat Pump Supply, Installation & Maintenance
Northstar Technical Services provides end-to-end heat pump solutions for homes and businesses across Wellington — from system selection and supply through to professional installation and long-term maintenance. We proudly supply and install Fujitsu heat pump systems, known for their reliability, energy efficiency, and performance in New Zealand conditions.
Our heat pump services include:
Expert advice on selecting the right Fujitsu system for your space
Professional supply and installation for residential and commercial properties
Dedicated circuit installation and electrical compliance
Switchboard capacity assessments and upgrades where required

Ongoing servicing and maintenance to ensure optimal performance and efficiency
We take into account insulation, room size, usage patterns, and existing electrical infrastructure to ensure each heat pump system is correctly sized, safely installed, and built to perform efficiently year-round. For older Wellington homes, we assess and upgrade electrical capacity where necessary, ensuring your heat pump operates safely without overloading existing systems.
Regular maintenance helps extend system lifespan, maintain energy efficiency, and reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns — keeping your home or workplace comfortable in every season.

EV Charger Installation
As electric vehicle ownership continues to grow across Wellington, Northstar Technical Services provides safe, compliant, and future-ready EV charger installations for both homes and businesses.
We recommend a site visit prior to installation, as every property’s electrical setup is different. A site assessment allows us to:
Check existing electrical capacity and load demand
Assess switchboard condition and available space
Identify whether electrical upgrades are required
Determine the safest and most efficient charger location
Plan for future EVs or increased charging demand
Our EV charger services include:
Residential and commercial EV charger installation

Future-proofing for additional vehicles or higher charging loads
All chargers are installed to New Zealand electrical standards, ensuring your system can safely support EV charging without overload risk, nuisance tripping, or reduced performance.
A proper site visit ensures your EV charger is installed once — and installed correctly — with safety, performance, and long-term use in mind.
Solar Panel Maintenance
Regular solar panel maintenance is essential to ensure your system continues to operate safely, efficiently, and at peak performance over its full lifespan.
Our solar panel maintenance services help to:
Maintain optimal energy production and system efficiency
Identify faulty panels, loose connections, or inverter issues early
Reduce the risk of electrical faults and system downtime
Extend the lifespan of solar panels, inverters, and associated components
Ensure ongoing compliance with New Zealand electrical safety standards
We provide professional solar maintenance for residential and commercial systems, including visual inspections, electrical testing, performance checks, and system health reporting. For commercial sites, maintenance can be combined with infrared thermography to identify overheating components or hidden faults before they lead to failure or fire risk.
Electrical Safety Inspections
Electrical safety inspections identify hidden risks, non-compliance, and potential electrical failures before they become safety hazards or costly repairs.
For homeowners, inspections are commonly requested when:
Purchasing or selling a property, especially older homes
Experiencing frequent power trips, flickering lights, or overheating outlets
Renovating or adding new appliances that increase electrical load
Installing heat pumps, EV chargers, or solar systems
Gaining peace of mind that wiring and switchboards are safe and compliant

Following each inspection, we provide clear, easy-to-understand reporting outlining:
Any safety concerns or non-compliance
Recommended remedial work (if required)
Guidance to ensure your property meets New Zealand electrical regulations and safety standards
An electrical safety inspection helps protect your home, your family, and your investment — and ensures your electrical system is safe, reliable, and fit for modern energy use.
