With the wide range of systems on the market choosing the one that will be the most suitable can be a little challenging, and it's important to take into account a few crucial aspects before choosing, such as your energy supply, how many people will be using the water and your budget. Heat Pump Hot Water Systems are undoubtedly a popular choice for many Australian homes and business owners.

Heat pump hot water systems are available in two types

Split- the tank and compressor are separate

Integrated - the tank and compressor are combined

When looking at each of these options consider your, space availability, energy efficiency goals, budget for installation, and maintenance costs. A good idea is to consult with a professional who can assess your needs and recommend the best system for your situation.

How does a heat pump hot water system work?

A heat pump hot water system operates in a continuous cycle, starting with evaporation, then compression, condensation followed by expansion of refrigerant. This continuous cycle allows the transfer of heat from the air to the water tank. The advantage of this process lies in the fact that, rather than directly generating heat, a heat pump hot water system utilises electricity to power the compressor and fans, resulting in significantly enhanced energy efficiency when compared to traditional electric or gas systems. Basically, heat pump hot water heaters function on the same principle as a refrigerator or air conditioner, but in reverse. Additionally, the energy efficiency and environmentally friendly attributes of a heat pump hot water system can be enhanced if you have a solar power system installed.

The operational steps of a heat pump hot water system explained:

1. Evaporator - The first step begins with the evaporator unit, generally situated outdoors or in a well-ventilated space. Refrigerant is contained in the evaporator and transitions from liquid to gas at relatively low temperatures
2. Heat absorption - The evaporator coils are in direct contact with the surrounding air, and the fan aids in pulling in the air. As the refrigerant in the evaporator coils is cooler than the air it absorbs heat from the air, causing it to evaporate and transform into low-pressure gas.
3. Compressor - The refrigerant has now transformed into a gaseous state, undergoing compression which elevates both temperature and pressure.
4. Condenser - /strong>The now hot high-pressure gas is directed through the condenser coil. As the gas traverses the coil it emits heat that is transferred to the water in the tank.
5. Expansion Valve - Once the water is heated, the high-pressure liquid refrigerant moves through the expansion valve, where its pressure and temperature are lowered, preparing to start the cycle again
6. Repeating the cycle - The low-pressure liquid refrigerant returns to the evaporator, absorbing more heat from the surrounding air, and the cycle will be repeated
