Consumer Responsibilities

This manual has been prepared to acquaint you with the installation, operation and maintenance of your electric heat pump water heater and to provide important safety information in these areas.

We urge you to read all of the instructions thoroughly before attempting the installation or operation of this water heater. This manual should be kept for future reference.

the water while the electric elements only function during high demand periods. (See “Adjusting the User Interface Module/ Operational Mode” section). The more often the unit operates using the heat pump, rather than the elements, the more efﬁcient the unit will be.

The 80-gallon tank capacity of this water heater is intended to take optimal advantage of the heat pump’s capability to heat water for large families or those having higher than normal hot water requirements. This high capacity will enable the unit to operate in the maximum efﬁciency mode more often than other models having lower capacity.

The HPWH uses about half the electricity of a comparably sized conventional electric water heater when operating in the Efﬁciency Mode, and provides up to ½ ton cooling capacity and dehumidiﬁcation. It is designed for indoor, residential applications for installation in a basement, garage or utility room (See “Location Requirements” section).

Basic Operation Fundamentals

The Heat Pump Water Heater (HPWH) is an integrated heat pump water heater unit, having an 850 watt compressor and external coil heat exchanger with backup electric elements (See Figure 1). When in Efﬁciency Mode the heat pump draws heat from the ambient air in the room and transfers it to the water in the tank through the coil heat exchanger. While in Electric Mode the water heater functions like a standard electric water heater, relying on the electric elements to heat the water. A Hybrid Mode is available that relies primarily on the heat pump to heat
