Hybrid Water Heaters

Hybrid water heaters

Should you buy a tankless water heater or a hybrid heat pump water heater? Well, that choice depends on the type of energy source you have available: gas or electric. Although a gas tankless water heater can make more sense, gas is generally not available (or too expensive) in the Orlando area.

Water heating operating costs

Plus, you should avoid electric tankless water heaters, because every electric tankless water heater we’ve tested fails in a couple of ways: Operating costs (It requires enough amperage to run 3-4 air conditioners) and flow rates (gallons of hot water provided per minute or “GPM”). So, If you want to use electricity for your water heater, a hybrid heat pump is your choice.

Customer Review

It keeps water hot just like a standard tank but at a fraction of the cost; it will literally pay for itself in three years. It should be an easy decision for anyone looking to replace/upgrade their existing standard tank.

Customer Review

I had a water heater installed in a two-car garage in central Florida where we’ve had a very hot summer. I’ve been using heat pump mode only for maximum efficiency. I’ve had lots of hot water, and my garage is noticeably cooler. I strongly recommend one in tropical areas like Florida where it is hot.

Customer Review

The unit provides plenty of hot water and is cooling my garage (a big bonus in Florida). My six-month average electric bill was $186 before installing it, and my first electric bill since installing was $133. I am pleasantly surprised at just how much energy it is saving.
