Heat pump water heaters are engineered to use renewable energy heat sources from the ambient air to heat water. They work like a refrigerator but in reverse. They are highly energy efficient as most of the energy for heating comes from the external environment and only a fraction comes from electricity. Thus for 1KW electricity consumed the heat transferred will be 3KW. The amount of electrical energy needed to heat water is greatly reduced thus saving energy.
A heat pump water heater can operate between -7ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðc to 43ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðc with highest efficiency.
The maximum temperature it can provide is 60°c.
It can be conveniently installed in a clean, dry room including basements, attics and utility rooms. It should be placed at a practical location to prevent long un-insulated hot water lines to be installed that waste energy and water. The room should be at least 700 cubic feet and be well ventilated. Commercial heat pump models can be installed on rooftops open to atmosphere.
First, the amount of water required has to be calculated and accordingly a suitable size has to be selected. For further professional assistance please contact our sales consultant.
No, most modern heat pumps are very quiet. The source of noise in a typical heat pump is the air passing over the grill, as it is blown through the unit. This sound is usually only marginally higher than ambient room noise.
While solar water heating systems do produce free hot water, they can only operate when there is sufficient sunshine. Therefore they have to rely on an electrical backup on cloudy/rainy days & in winter which adds to the electricity cost. The heat pump water heaters on the other hand can work in any weather, day or night without the use of a backup system right down to -7ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂðc. The volume & temperature of hot water from a solar system will vary with weather; in a heat pump water heater this is constant & irrespective of weather conditions.
Major energy savings upto 75% compared to electric water heaters.
Households or commercial enterprises with large hot water usage can get huge savings from a heat pump water heater.
Convenience of always available hot water.
Environment friendly, green technology.
No electric heating elements; safer & more reliable system.

There are no subsidies, however, any commercial or industrial enterprise can avail of accelerated 80% Depreciation on their investment in Heat Pump Water heaters which are classified as ÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂEnergy saving DevicesÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂâÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂÃÂàunder Income Tax Act. Additional depreciation benefits will reduce the payback time for these enterprises.
