The CWL Advantage

CWL Group creates customers for life by being the single point of accountability.

This means that you can remove the end of project finger pointing and “blame game” by having one trusted partner be responsible for the entire project.

Over the last two decades, CWL Group have built long term relationships with Australia’s leading consultants, developers, architects, and builders, establishing ourselves as the industry leader in geothermal exchange heating and cooling for luxury and multi-residential, commercial, government, aged-care and district heating/cooling applications across the country.

CWL Group is Australia’s premier geothermal exchange design and construct (D&C) contractor, providing a full turn-key service including in-house engineering, complete 3D system design, water and ground heat-exchanger installations, plant room fabrications, underfloor/hydronic heating and cooling distribution systems, and more. We provide our clients with one point of contact and a consistent high-level of workmanship across all components of the project.

We have more geothermal exchange engineering experience than any other D&C contractor in the country, with a team of engineers from North America, Europe, and Australia. More than just IGSHPA certified, our director of engineering is a licensed Professional Engineer who has been designing and installing geothermal exchange systems since 2004.

The team at CWL Group continually aim to deliver a superior quality product, and always to do so on time. To do so, we will provide an exceptional level of service, trustworthy professional advice and attention to the finest details before, during, and even after installation with a class-leading service offering. We aim to surpass all of our client’s expectations across all stages.

CWL Group is 100% Australian owned and fully self-funded.

Future Proofed Solutions

CWL Group takes pride in its work, and in knowing that whatever work is done today will stand the test of time for decades – sometimes centuries – to come. This knowledge stems from a focus on the design and construction of systems that are of the highest-quality, robust, and dependable. However for work to properly endure, it must also avoid antiquated methodologies, technologies, materials, and energy sources.

Nearly all CWL Group systems utilise heat pumps to generate heat or – when cooling – to remove heat. A heat pump avoids on-site combustion, reducing local pollution and health concerns. It may also offer safety benefits; it can replace LPG cylinders in bushfire-prone areas and eliminate risks associated with carbon monoxide poisoning.

Heat pumps can also play a key role in dramatically reducing emissions. In a January 14, 2020 article by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) titled, “How Will Natural Gas Fare in the Energy Transition”, it was stated:

“In a low-carbon world, gas must be phased out from the places where it is currently being used in space heating, water heating, or cooking.”

In the Netherlands a 2016 policy was put in place that restricts new homes from being connected to the gas-grid, and further stipulates that 170,000 houses a year must be disconnected. In the U.K., gas heating will be banned for new homes by 2025. The Victorian government has banned natural gas connections in all new homes that require a planning permit in the state from 1 January, 2024.

Heat pumps also play a key role in dramatically reducing operating costs. The running cost of the ultra-efficient heat pumps that CWL Group utilise is much lower than electric resistance heating, LPG, and even mains gas. In combination with consistently improving on-site electricity generation and energy storage options, heat pumps provide insurance against increasing energy prices by affording the client energy security.

CWL Group thinks beyond your present needs to what you may require down the road, ensuring the system you are acquiring now will have the agility and ability to adapt to the future.

We engaged CWL for the geothermal exchange and HVAC works on our unique project in Bellevue Hill and were selected based on pricing and their previous experience. It turned out to be the best choice in subcontractors we made for the whole project. Their professionalism, work ethic, expertise and willing to help wherever needed made a highly complex services installation that much easier, and more efficient than expected. I’d like to personally thank James and the site team who put the extra effort in at all times to get our project over the line with remarkable results. Highly recommended Subcontractors and mechanical consultants.

A culture of striving for excellence combined with motivated and dedicated staff is what defines CWL Group. Their workmanship is second to none and it is obvious that all of the staff care about what they do. Commitments are met and exceeded and there are no problems that can’t be resolved.

I want to thank CWL Group for the outstanding work in installing our hydronic heating system. I have worked with many plumbers over the years and I have never seen such a high standard of workmanship. They came in on time and on budget. I cannot recommend the team from CWL Group highly enough.
