What Exactly Is A Hybrid Water Heater?

A Hybrid Water Heater, also known as a Heat Pump Water Heater, combines everything we love about a standard water heater with the benefit of an energy-efficient heat pump. A hybrid water heater works like a refrigerator but in reverse. While a refrigerator removes heat from an enclosed box and releases it to the surrounding air, a hybrid water heater capturers the heat from the surrounding air and then transfers it to the water in an enclosed tank. It then blows out the cooler air. Since it moves heat from one place to another rather than generating heat directly, it is a more efficient way to heat water.

What Is A Heat Pump?

A Heat Pump is an energy-efficient alternative to other types of home heating systems, such as a natural gas furnace or electric baseboards. Heat Pumps are powered by electricity and transfer heat using refrigerants. Heat pump water heaters use heat from outside air drawn into the appliance’s evaporator coil. The evaporator coil contains refrigerants, allowing it to absorb heat from the air. Finally, a heat exchanger heats water within the tank to the desired temperature before it passes from the heater tank into your home’s showers, faucets, and large appliances.
