WHY A HEAT PUMP

Same hot water. As little as a third of the electricity.

An electric tank turns one unit of electricity into one unit of heat. A heat pump moves heat from the air into the water, so each unit of electricity delivers up to about 3.5 units of heat.

Electric storage tankElement heats the water
Emerald heat pumpCOP up to about 3.5

Electricity for the same amount of hot water, worked out from a COP of 3.5. Real use depends on your climate, water use and settings.

HOW IT WORKS

Like a fridge, in reverse.

1

Fan draws in air

Even cool air holds heat the system can use.

2

Refrigerant soaks it up

A refrigerant picks up that heat as it passes the coil.

3

Compressor heats it

Squeezing the refrigerant raises its temperature.

4

Heat goes into your tank

The heat passes into the water, ready when you need it.

Emerald, built for our climate

Australian-designed. The 270 L model suits most households, with 315 L for bigger homes. Certified to AS/NZS 4234.

Heat it on your solar

Set the timer to run in the middle of the day, when your panels are producing.

Quiet, half-day install

About as loud as an air conditioner's outdoor unit, placed away from bedroom walls. Old tank taken away.

QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK

Straight answers.

How much power does it save?

With a COP of up to about 3.5, it can use as little as a third of the electricity of an electric storage tank for the same hot water. Your result depends on your climate, water use and settings.

Is it noisy?

About as loud as an air conditioner's outdoor unit. We place it away from bedroom walls.

Does it work in winter?

Yes. Performance drops a little on cold nights, and the tank still keeps up.

What rebates apply?

Federal STCs come off your quote. In Victoria, eligible owner-occupiers can get a Solar Homes hot water rebate of up to $1,000 (up to $1,400 for eligible locally made products). We tell you what your home qualifies for.

How long does the install take?

Usually half a day, including taking away the old tank.
