Residential Hybrid Electric
10-Year Limited Tank/ 10-Year Limited Parts Warranty*
Hybrid Electric heat pump water heaters from American
are the most versatile, energy-ecient 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 Do They Work?
Absorb 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 operating modes maximize eciency and meet increasing hot water demands
QUALIFIES FOR 2010 FEDERAL TAX CREDIT OF UP TO $1,500
FEATURES
Heat Pumps
• High capacity storage tank enables the heat pump to operate more frequenttly than the
heating elements. This provides higher energy eciency and lower operating costs saving
money for the homeowner.
• High capacity storage tank provides more hot water for peak demand periods
Energy-Eciency
• Up to a 2.4 Energy Factor (EF) rating conserves energy and meets ENERGY STAR® qualications
Choice of Operating Modes
•
requirements to environmental conditions. Hybrid mode automatically adjusts between
compressor and element, depending upon heat requirements. Vacation mode reduces
operating costs and provides freeze protection during extended absence.
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 LCD Touch Pad control with plain English text and intuitive status icons provides easy interaction
• Large LCD temperature display (see back) shows temperature in °F or °C
3 line 13 character backlit LCD display communicates current set point, status and operational information
•
•
Advanced diagnostics convey error messages in plain English. The last four error messages are saved in
the control system memory.
•
Child resistant safety lock deters unwanted access to temperature settings
Powered Anode
• A non-sacricial powered anode protects the tank from corrosion and eliminates the service requirements
of conventional anode rods.

Model Shown
• Ideal for basements or garage installations; the compressor transfers heat to the water while dehumidifying
and cooling the ambient air.
••
Washable air lter is easily removed for routine cleaning
Dry Fire Protection
Control system checks to ensure the tank is full of water during start up to prevent dry ring the heating elements
