120-volt heat pump water heaters (HPWH) are a new technology that can help rapidly decarbonize residential hot water use. Hot water is the second- or third-biggest energy load in most homes. Thus, electrifying as many water heaters as possible is critical for meeting U.S. decarbonization goals. 120-volt HPWHs are particularly beneficial in retrofit scenarios where the homeowner has a gas-fired water heater and wishes to convert it to a heat pump. Whereas 240-volt HPWHs require expensive electrical work like panel upgrades or new wiring, a 120-volt HPWH can plug into a standard outlet.
In this webinar, you'll learn the basics about 120-volt heat pump water heaters and if they might be a good solution for your home or project. GreenHome Institute will dive into sizing, energy use, and operating costs.
There will be a review Inflation Reduction Act rebates and tax credits available as well.
