Hot water, when you want it. Only better.

Water heating is the second largest energy use in your home. A Heat Pump Water Heater (HPWH) can provide all the hot water you need with a fraction of the energy. A HPWH can be three times more efficient than conventional water heaters and can help you save on the cost of heating your water.

Plus, with the incentives available now, a new heat pump water heater is more affordable than ever.

How does it work?

Heat pumps aren’t a new technology. In fact, you already have a heat pump in your home —your refrigerator. Heat pump water heaters work like refrigerators in reverse – they extract heat from the surrounding air and transfer it to water in the tank – even in colder climates. And since they move existing heat, instead of generating new heat, a HPWH is three times more efficient than a conventional water heater.
