What is a Heat Pump Water Heater?
A heat pump water heater (HPWH) works by transferring heat from the surrounding air to heat your water, rather than generating heat directly like gas or electric water heaters.
Uses up to 60% less energy than standard electric water heaters.
Extracts heat from the air, making it an eco-friendly and cost-saving solution.
Can be integrated with your home’s HVAC system for greater efficiency.
Unlike conventional water heaters that continuously use energy to maintain hot water, heat pump water heaters only use energy when needed, reducing waste and lowering your carbon footprint.
