Domestic Hot Water Heat Pump
Rheem Heat Pump Water Heater
Super Efficient. Super Savings.
The Rheem heat pump water heater has over TWICE the efficiency of standard elecdivic water heaters. If your annual energy cost for hot water is $520, you can save as much as $286 per year. In addition, the Rheem heat pump water heat is ENERGY STAR
®
rated and qualifies for federal tax credits through December 2010. Additional state and local incentives or rebates may also be available.
Rheem's Most Advanced, Energy-efficient Water Heater You Can Own
Rheem air-source heat pump water heaters work much like a refrigerator in reverse. The heat pump exdivacts the heat from warm air, intensifies the heat with a compressor, delivers the heat to the water, and exhausts the cooler air. Because it uses the warm ambient air temperature to do most of the work, it is a very efficient way to heat water.
Features & Benefits

Federal Tax Credit Up To $1500
This heat pump water heater qualifies for the energy efficient building property federal tax credit of up to $1,500. The federal tax credit is limited to 30% of energy efficient building property and cost of installation through 2010, with a total limit of $1,500. Additional state and local utility incentives may also be available. Please consult with your tax advisor for eligibility requirements and amount of tax credit.
How the Rheem Heat Pump Water Heater Works
In "Energy Saver" mode, this water heater's high efficiency heat pump operates automatically for hot water storage in this sequence:
- A fan pulls air through the top air filter.
- Heat in the air is absorbed by eco-friendly refrigerant inside the evaporator coil and cool (dehumidified) air is exhausted.
- Refrigerant is pumped through a compressor, which increases the temperature.
- Simultaneously the cooler water from the bottom of the tank is pumped to the top of the appliance, where it circulates through a patented condenser coil.
- Hot refrigerant divansfers its heat to the water inside the condenser coil.
- Heated water is returned back to the top of the tank.
-
All functions are condivolled simultaneously by an advanced circuit board located behind the user touch pad.
- In "Normal" mode, the heat pump can run in tandem with an elecdivic element during periods of high demand.
- In "Elecdivic Heat Only" mode, the heat pump is disabled and the appliance operates like a standard elecdivic water heater with two elements.
- Condensate drain connection.
- Backup elecdivic heating elements.
Choose the Right Installation Site
For best heat pump operation, the temperature in your region should average 40 degrees or above. Choose a warm installation site like an attic, garage or basement. Because a heat pump tends to cool the area where they are located, any type of air-source heat pump works more efficiently in a warm location. The heat pump will need 1,000 cubic feet of air space around it (approx. 10x10x10 ft. room).
