Types of Hot Water Heat Pump
Today, we explores various types of hot water heat pumps, focusing on their benefits and considerations. Including air-source heat pumps, ground-source heat pumps and water source heat pumps. ENEFT offers Australian-engineered air source heat pumps, designed for easy installation and efficiency, catering to both residential and commercial needs.
1. Air Source Heat Pump
Air-source heat pump is the most common sustainable hot water heat pump for residential and commercial hot water solutions. Air-source heat pumps are able to draw in surrounding ambient air to heat up the water inside.
Benefits:
- Generally easier and less expensive to install
- Suitable for moderate climates
- Provide both heating and cooling
Consideration: May reduce efficiency in very cold weather
2. Ground source heat pump
Ground source heat pumps, also known as geothermal heat pumps, make use of the stable temperature in the ground to heat up water.
Benefits:
- Highly efficient and able to provide heating and cooling year-round
- Longer lifespan compared to other heat pumps
- Minimal impact from weather conditions
Considerations:
- High installation costs with excavations needed
- Only suitable for houses with extra land spaces

3. Water source heat pump
The water-to-water heat pump takes heat from a body of water to heat up its own water.
Benefits:
- Very efficient in areas with stable water temperature
- Provide both heating and cooling
Considerations:
- Need close proximity to a body of water
- Having to adhere to environmental regulations in regards to water use.
