Looking to install a Bradford White Hybrid Energy Star Qualified Water Heater?

Here’s what you need to know! Unlike standard electric water heaters that rely solely on electric resistance to heat water, a hybrid water heater utilizes a highly efficient heat pump to draw warmth from the surrounding air, reducing energy consumption by up to 60%. This efficiency translates to an average savings of $300 per year in energy costs. Additionally, you may qualify for a 30% tax credit and a rebate from your energy provider, making it even more affordable. Over just two years, the energy savings can offset the additional upfront cost, and in about nine years, you’ll nearly recover your full investment. Installation requirements include 700 cubic feet of space for air circulation or a 240-square-inch louvered door, adequate clearance, and a plan for condensate removal. Regular maintenance is simple: clean the air filter monthly (or as needed), flush the tank every three months, and check essential components like the expansion tank and temperature settings. The heat pump’s operation generates cool air, but an optional duct kit can direct this air outside if needed. With four operational modes, including the ultra-efficient heat pump-only mode, a hybrid water heater offers superior energy savings and performance tailored to your household’s needs.
