Heat Pumps
Electric heaters are powered by 3000 watt heating elements, while heat pumps run at 210 watts.
Three times as efficient as Gen 1 electric heaters
To produce the same amount of hot water as an electric heater, heat pumps only use 33% of energy. Heat pumps are three times more efficient than regular electric heaters.
Heat pumps are perfect for tropical climates like Singapore. They absorb free air heat from their surroundings, running well at temperatures of 15ºC to 40º.
How do heat pumps work?
Heat Pumps are the ultimate energy efficient water heaters in tropical climates like Singapore. They absorb hot ambient air and use it to heat water.
They consistently save around 80% of energy and are more efficient than solar heaters.
How are heat pumps more efficient than solar?
“Today, the solar panel energy collection efficiency is still pretty low. For most conventional solar panels, the efficiency is between 15 to 20 per cent. The question is, can we increase the efficiency beyond 25 per cent?”
