A commitment to quality service for over forty years

Family owned and operated, Martella is a name that has been synonymous in the region with quality home heating solutions.

Martella Refrigeration & Air Conditioning was founded in 1983 by Allan and Sally Martella. The company still remains in the family with Craig and Steph Martella continuing the renowned Martella name for quality work and dedicated local service that first began four decades ago. Craig says he enjoys the challenge of designing, problem solving and finding solutions for their customers, while Steph enjoys her role coordinating the administration side of the business along with balancing family life.

“As a well-founded local company, we have succeeded in the good times and endured through the downturns by conducting our business with honesty and integrity.

“This is evidenced by our long-standing relationships with businesses and private homeowners, many of who we have been serving for decades and who remain with us not out of just out of loyalty but because we do good work, and, on the rare occasions when things go wrong, we make good.

“We have also built long-standing partnerships with trusted brands such our founding 30-year dealership with Daikin NZ.”

The Martella team are part of the community and supporters of local organisations including Outward Bound, Rainbow Ski field, Queen Charlotte Yacht Club, Gateway students and apprenticeship programmes.

Offering complete solutions for climate control for both residential homes and commercial premises, the team also provide servicing and maintenance services to their local customers.

“We are part of fantastic programmes to make heat pumps more accessible to our community. These programmes include ‘Warmer Kiwi Homes’ where customers may be eligible for a government grant from EECA.

“We are also a part of the Marlborough District Council Home Clean Heating Scheme where customers may be eligible to pay for their new heat pump through their rates and spread the costs over multiple years.”

Steph says it is important for people to talk to an expert about their options to find the right solution for their home and budget.

“This ensures that the heating solution is appropriate for the individual space, and that it is not only effective and economical to run, but is installed by a trained installer, with the back-up support of a team of qualified technicians and engineers.” martella.co.nz
