How Heat Pump Hot Water Systems Work
Heat pump hot water systems use warmth from the surrounding air to heat water efficiently. Instead of generating heat directly, the system transfers heat using a refrigerant cycle, which requires far less electricity. Warm air is drawn in, the heat is captured and compressed, and that energy is transferred into water stored in a tank. This process works effectively in both warm and cool climates, making heat pumps suitable for most regions of Australia.
