“These guys are fantastic! I managed to book in super quickly for an emergency issue. The booking window was only 2hrs and they called half an hour before so it was super easy for someone working full time. They were friendly and fixed the issue really quickly. He tidied up and left it all cleaner than it was before they came. Pricing was super reasonable as well considering the quality work 🙂 Huge thanks to the team!”

Experience the Future of Water Heating with Electric Heat Pump Systems

Step into the future of home technology with the electric heat pump hot water system. An innovative game-changer, this system transforms how we heat water, boasting phenomenal energy efficiency and a slew of environmental advantages.

Say goodbye to typical electrical heating elements and welcome the era of heat extraction and transfer. In this system, heat energy is extracted from the surrounding air to heat water, achieving high efficiency and operating at above 100% efficiency.

Let Us Introduce the Heat Pump Hot Water System

The electric heat pump hot water system is your ticket to significant savings, slashing your power consumption and, in turn, your energy bills.

But the benefits go beyond your wallet – this system also reduces greenhouse emissions, making it a perfect fit for any eco-conscious homeowner. Plus, unlike solar hot water systems, it guarantees a steady hot water supply regardless of the season or time of day.

The best part?

As the trusted experts at Canberra Plumbing & Drains, we offer unparalleled installation, replacement, and servicing of these revolutionary heat pump hot water systems. Professional hot water installation in Canberra is crucial to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency, especially given the extreme climate conditions.

We’ll show you how this technology can serve as your home’s efficient, budget-friendly hot water solution.

Why Electric Heat Pump Water Heaters?

Choosing an electric hot water heat pump system means you’re able to enjoy a myriad of benefits that conventional water heaters simply can’t match:

  1. Shrink your energy bills: Save up to 60% on water heating costs compared to conventional electric hot water heaters. How? This system uses less electricity to heat the same amount of water.
  2. Reduce your carbon footprint: Lower greenhouse gas emissions by up to 70% compared to traditional electric water heaters. This is possible because the system leverages renewable energy from the surrounding air to heat the water rather than fossil fuels, especially when solar power is installed.
  3. Enjoy a longer lifespan: With proper maintenance, this system can last up to 15 years or more, outliving most conventional electric water heaters, which typically last only up to 10 years.
  4. Experience high performance: This system offers steady, reliable hot water throughout the year, even in cold weather. Thanks to a defrost cycle that prevents icing on the compressor unit, the system can operate in an ambient air temperature ranging from -15°C to 45°C.
  5. No solar panels needed: When using this renewable power, hot water heat pumps work independently of solar panels, inverters, or batteries. This eliminates installation and energy costs, roof space issues, shading problems, and maintenance costs associated with solar systems.
  6. Easy installation: An electric hot water system using a heat pump can be installed either outside or inside your home. It doesn’t need any special plumbing or electrical connections, as it uses standard fittings and wiring.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have questions about electric heat pump hot water systems? Here are some common queries:

Plumbing van in Canberra area
How long does an electric heat pump system heat water take?

Typically, heating a full water tank takes 4-6 hours. However, modern heat pumps come with intelligent controls that allow you to schedule heating times to align with your usage patterns, ensuring hot water is ready when needed.

How loud is a heat pump unit?

Heat pumps operate very quietly, similar to a refrigerator. You can expect around 40-60 decibels, comparable to background noise levels. With proper installation away from bedrooms and neighbours, there should be minimal disturbance.

How much space is needed for a heat pump system?

An integrated heat pump tank requires about 1-2 sqm of floor area. Split systems with separate storage tanks require less space – generally 0.5 sqm for the heat pump unit. We ensure the proper clearances for ventilation and maintenance access.

How frequently should a heat pump system be serviced?

We recommend a service every 1-2 years, depending on water usage and quality. Regular maintenance allows us to check and clean all components, replace any worn parts, and keep your system running at peak efficiency and safety. This preventative approach helps avoid problems down the line.
