This superior refrigerant technology significantly reduces the amount of electrical energy needed to heat water compared to traditional electric storage hot water systems.

The Sanden Eco® Plus Hot Water Heat Pump System is exceptionally efficient, consuming just 0.9kW of electricity to produce 4.5 kW of heat, which translates to a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 5. This efficiency means it uses only 20% of the energy of a conventional electric storage system. As a result, the Sanden Eco® Hot Water Heat Pump System can help you achieve up to 80% savings on your hot water energy costs related to conventional electric storage systems, making it a smart choice for both your wallet and the environment.

Whisper Quiet Operation

Noise levels are a crucial consideration when selecting a hot water heat pump system. Sanden has conducted extensive research to develop a system that operates at a 'whisper quiet' noise level of 37dB. This ensures that the Sanden hot water heat pump system operates unobtrusively, preserving the tranquility of your home environment and maintaining good relations with neighbours.
