Why use a Hotwater Heat Pump?
On average, hot water and home heating needs combined account for over 67%* of the overall energy bill in New Zealand homes.
Domestic heating is therefore an obvious area to target in reducing energy bills. This is especially pertinent during the winter months, where a combination of taking longer, hotter showers and the increased need for a warm and dry home, typically drives up power bills. An Hotwater Heat Pump System can help reduce your heating and hot water bill when compared to gas and direct electric systems.

Super Efficient Hot Water Heating
The estimated return on investment of an Hotwater heat pump, when compared to a gas or direct electric heating system, could be as low as 4 years! There are ways of reducing this payback period further, such as taking advantage of lower cost nightly electricity tariffs available or integrating with solar energy!
Combined with Underfloor Heating
No need to use expensive electric underfloor heating, use your same hot water system for underfloor radiant heating that provides the ultimate in comfort that you cannot see, particularly suited for tiled areas.
Environmentally friendly
Did you know traditional electric hot water heaters produce up to three times the amount of greenhouse gas compared to a low emission alternative such as a hot water heat pump? Instant gas hot water systems are even greater greenhouse gas contributors producing a staggering seven times more emissions compared to hot water heat pump technology
How does a Hotwater Heat Pump work?
Hotwater Heat Pump Solution is made up of three key components that intuitively work together to provide super energy efficient heating – the outdoor unit, the heat exchange and the controller that runs the system.
The Three Components of a Hotwater Heat Pump System
The Outdoor Unit
Just like a heat pump for space heating, the outdoor unit uses electricity to absorb freely available warmth from the surrounding air and then transfers it to your home so it can provide energy efficient hotwater heating and underfloor heating.
Heat Exchange
An Integrate Cylinder or hydrobox provides your home with continuous hot water.
Smart Energy Controls
Hotwater Heat Pump Systems come standard with built-in Smart Energy Control. This easy-to-use interface provides home owners with smart energy monitoring to maximise energy efficient operation. Furthermore, advanced weather compensation ensures the system delivers comfortable heating no matter the season. The controller is intuitive to use, with individualised room temperature control available at your fingertips for the ultimate in total home comfort.
