At a Glance
About This Course
Learn how to make your hot showers feel even better by saving money and slashing your carbon emissions with a heat pump water heater. Water heating is the second biggest energy user in our homes after space heating; they account for around 18% of home energy use. Heat pump water heaters run on electricity and use the magic of heat pumps to dramatically reduce energy consumption and cut home carbon emissions. Heat pump water heating is by far the most efficient way to heat water - 3 to 5 times more efficient than any other technology, including tankless gas heaters. Due to its low energy use, a heat pump water heater will avoid 1 ton of CO2 emissions every year compared to gas water heaters, and save $400-$500 in energy bills compared to electric resistance models. This is enough electricity savings to power an electric vehicle! Best of all, the savings come from the super efficient water heater itself and do not require us to use less hot water to save money and reduce emissions. Switch out your water heater and voila, suddenly you’re a climate champion every time you take a steamy shower.
