Residential Hybrid Electric Heat Pump
10-Year Limited Tank/ 10-Year Limited Parts Warranty*
The Hybrid Electric heat pump water heater from American is the most versatile, energy efficient option for the consumer who is looking to go green, providing the same amount of hot water as a conventional electric water heater at half the cost. How Does it Work? • Absorbs ambient heat from the surrounding air to heat water using a compressor and environmentally friendly R134a refrigerant – Self-contained heat pump unit is integrated into the top of the tank – Multiple modes of operation allow flexibility for different hot water needs
Qualifies for 2010 Federal Tax Credit of up to $1,500
FEATURES Increased Storage Enhances Efficiency • The high capacity tank enables the heat pump to operate more frequently instead of the elements. This provides higher energy efficiency and lower operating costs, saving money for the home-owner • Additional storage facilitates heat pump performance even in cooler climates Energy Efficiency • 2.3 Energy Factor conserves energy and meets ENERGY STAR® requirements Choice of Operating Modes • Select from Efficiency, Hybrid, or conventional Electric modes to match heating requirements to environmental conditions. Hybrid mode automatically adjusts between compressor and element, depending upon heat requirements. Vacation mode protects system components from freeze damage Backup Electric Elements • Long-lasting incoloy heating elements, 240V/2000W lower and 240V/4500W upper, helps heat water when in conventional Electric or Hybrid modes Electronic User Interface • User friendly electronic control module designed for easy interaction • Large LCD temperature display (see back) shows temperature in °F or °C, operating conditions, and service messages in easy to read format • Backlit mode buttons, safety lock to deter unwanted access and three-line display communicates current status and error messages when applicable
HPE6280H045DV
Powered Anode • A powered anode is installed to protect the tank from corrosion and eliminate the service requirements of a conventional anode rod Dehumidification • Ideal for basements, the compressor transfers heat to your water while dehumidifying the ambient air • Washable heat pump filter is easily removed for routine cleaning *For complete warranty information consult the written warranty of American Water Heaters found at www.americanwaterheater.com, or call (800) 456-9805.
