Performance & Savings
The Sanden Eco® Plus Hot Water Heat Pump System delivers:
- Industry leading energy efficiency – uses only 20% of the energy required by an electric storage hot water system.
- Innovative technology – up to 50% faster heat recovery than currently available hot water heat pumps.
- Industry leading quality & performance, with the highest level of STC values of currently available hot water heat pumps.
- Class leading warranties, backed by Sanden’s 35 years of operation in Australia.
As the Sanden Eco® Plus Hot Water Heat Pump System uses R744 (CO2) refrigerant technology, the amount of electrical energy required to heat the water is significantly less than that required by a conventional electric hot water system.
In fact, the Sanden Eco® Plus Hot Water Heat Pump System consumes 1kW of electricity to generate 4.5 kW of heat (COP = 5.0*), which equates to 20% of the energy used by a conventional electric system. Consequently, with the Sanden Eco Plus Hot Water Heat Pump System, you can save up to 80% of your conventional electric hot water energy costs!
