Save Energy. Save Money.
Heat pump water heaters are one of the most efficient ways to heat your home’s water. Instead of generating heat directly like traditional gas or electric models, they draw warmth from the surrounding air and transfer it to the tank. This process uses far less energy and helps reduce your monthly utility bills.
Top benefits:
- Energy Efficiency: Uses up to 60% less energy than standard electric models and even more compared to gas water heaters.
- Lower Utility Costs: Many homeowners save between 15% and 24% per year on energy bills.
- Smart Controls: Easily manage temperature settings, scheduling, and vacation modes through built-in control panels or mobile apps.
- Health and Safety: No combustion means zero risk of gas leaks or carbon monoxide.
- Eco-Friendly: Reduces greenhouse gas emissions, especially when paired with renewable energy sources like solar.
If you’re looking to cut energy costs and make your home more sustainable, a heat pump water heater is a smart, future-ready upgrade.
Operating Modes for Every Household
These types of water heaters offer multiple operating modes to balance efficiency and hot water availability:
- Heat Pump Mode: Maximizes energy savings by using only the heat pump.
- Hybrid Mode: Uses the heat pump as the primary heating source but activates a backup electric heating element during high-demand periods.
- High Demand Mode: Heats water faster by engaging the backup element more quickly.
- Electric Mode: Uses only electric resistance heating and offers the least efficiency.
- Vacation Mode: Reduces energy use while you’re away from home.
When to Consider Installing a Heat Pump Water Heater
The best time to install it is when your existing unit is nearing the end of its useful life, typically between 10 and 12 years. It’s also a smart addition if you are installing solar panels, upgrading your electrical panel, or transitioning away from gas appliances. Some new models even work on standard 120-volt circuits, making them easy to install in existing homes without major electrical work.
