I
t has always been obvIous to us that a heat pump
water heater ought to make hot water with the
heat pump, and not with a back-up element. This
simple solution seems to have escaped others. Yet
it has made our heat pump water heater the largest
seller in Europe for over 35 years.
Until recently, the best “high efficiency” water
heaters could only approach 100% efficiency. Heat
pump water heater technology redefines water
heater efficiency, producing efficiencies more than 3
times that. For every watt an Accelera’s compressor
and fan uses, the equivalent of 3-5 watts of hot
water are generated.

In warm climates, an Accelera
®
is placed either in the
garage, where it uses the heat from the outside air to
make hot water, or inside the house, where it helps with
the air conditioning load. In cooler climates, the unit is
typically placed in the basement where it also acts as a
dehumidifier. You get hot water at a discount plus a drier
basement as well.
