If solar hot water is not a suitable option for your home; if you have limited power for hot water; or your existing electric tank still has years of service left - then perhaps a heat pump is the answer.

A heat pump water heater works like a refrigerator in reverse. It extracts heat from the surrounding environment and pumps this into the storage tank.

The heat pump can be connected to most existing electric hot water storage tanks, effectively reducing your hot water energy usage by up to 70%.

Heat pumps are ideal for people without direct access to solar exposure or who prefer not to have a solar tank/panels on their roof, and will reduce your energy bills.

The heat pump can produce reliable hot water all year 'round, under all weather conditions and can convert a high energy standard hot water system into a low energy system.
