FAQ
Heat pump water heaters use electricity to move heat from one place to another instead of generating heat directly. Therefore, they can be two to three times more energy efficient than conventional electric resistance water heating geysers.
Heat pump water heaters are engineered to use renewable energy heat sources from the ambient air to heat water. They work like a refrigerator or air conditioner but in reverse order. They are highly energy efficient as most of the energy for heating comes from the external environment and only a fraction comes from. The amount of electrical energy needed to heat water is greatly reduced thus saving energy is possible.
Heat Pumps are more efficient than traditional water heating geysers as the heat pump system uses the available heat in the air to heat the water, while traditional bathroom water heating geysers generate heat by using electricity. The efficiency of the heat pump system is one of its most significant advantages. This allows you to save up to 70% on electricity.
No. Heat Pumps do not use a lot of electricity. They are highly efficient and are powered by electricity which is much cleaner than fossil fuels.
The outdoor part of the system does have a fan which draws the air across the internal components and this will make a whirring noise in operation. The amount of noise is comparatively lesser than an outdoor unit of a Split Air Conditioners.
Heat pump water heaters can be installed in a variety of locations, from an unheated garage to a heated utility room, from terraces to balconies, on the rooftops with proper shading arrangements, etc. Things to consider include space, sound, air temperature and the unit’s size/height.

Yes. Once we get input from our customer regarding birds and animal threat, we build a metal cage for your system and will be kept under lock & key.
Unlike standard electric water heaters, heat pump water heaters use air filter that needs to be cleaned periodically to ensure efficient operation.
Heat pumps can last a lifetime if you maintain them well. When you are buying a heat pump, there are a few things you should consider to ensure that you are getting the right pump for your home or business. For example, you should check the rating of the heat pump. You should also find out whether it has a warranty. Most manufacturers offer a warranty of 10-15 years.
