Why Switch
Why a Heat Pump Water Heater Beats Gas
Much more efficient
Moves heat from the surrounding air instead of burning gas, so it uses far less energy to heat the same water.
Zero Indoor Combustion
No flame and no gas venting from your water heater, for cleaner air at home.
Lower operating costs
Efficient heating plus SVCE clean electricity can lower your water heating costs over time.
Smart scheduling
Many models can heat water during lower-cost hours.
