Heat Pump Water Heaters: A Smarter Way to Heat Your Home

How Do Heat Pump Water Heaters Work?

• Air is drawn in: The system extracts heat from the ambient air.

• Heat transfer: A refrigerant absorbs the heat, which is then compressed to raise its temperature.

• Heating water: This heat is transferred to a water storage tank.

• Smart efficiency: Many models include a backup electric element for peak demand.

These systems work best in climates where temperatures remain above 4–32 °C, but modern models are now built to perform across wider ranges.

Why Choose a Heat Pump Water Heater?

✅ Save on energy bills — up to 80% less energy use compared to traditional systems
✅ Eco-friendly — reduce greenhouse gas emissions
✅ Reliable hot water — even in varying weather conditions
✅ Government rebates available — further reducing upfront costs
