Heat pump water heaters will save customers money, starting from the first utility bill.
A typical family of four will save $550 per year, and approximately $5,610 over a heat pump water heater’s (HPWH) lifetime.
Savings for customers are higher than ever.
With current rebates, the cost of a HPWH is comparable to traditional electric water heaters. The Inflation Reduction Act provides a federal tax credit of up to $2,000; coupled with local utility incentives, HPWHs should be your top recommendation to your customers.
Heat pump water heaters can improve energy efficiency all over the Northwest.
HPWHs can be installed in many types of residential spaces, but the climate in your region of the Northwest determines where you should consider installing a HPWH.

Ideal conditions for optimal performance.
Spaces with Adequate Ventilation
HPWHs efficiently operate in spaces as small as 450 cubic feet. Proper venting and ducting ensure high performance in more compact areas.
Spaces with Ambient Air
HPWHs excel in semi-conditioned areas like basements and garages, even in cold climates where the surrounding air is 37°F or above.
Sizing for your customer's needs.
Compared to standard electric tanks, HPWHs rely less on inefficient heating elements to keep up with demand. Upgrade to a HPWH with a larger tank to take advantage of increased efficiency and cost savings.
