Heat Pump Technology
Renewable Heat Source - Up to 400% Efficient
Heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from one place to another instead of generating heat directly. Therefore,
they can be three to four times more energy efficient than conventional electric resistance water heaters.
To transfer the heat, heat pumps work like a refrigerator in reverse. While a refrigerator takes heat from inside a box
and sends it into the surrounding room, a stand-alone air-source heat pump takes heat from the surrounding air and sends
it at a higher temperature into a tank to heat water.
Using heat pump technology compared with other ordinary hot water equipment (e.g. oil or gas boiler) reduces operating
costs by between 40-80%. Furthermore it does not create any pollution for the environment.
