A hybrid water heater is a type of water heater that uses a combination of an electric heat pump and a traditional electric heating element to heat water. Heat pumps work by extracting heat from the surrounding air and transferring it to the water in the tank. This process is much more efficient than using a traditional electric heating element, which simply generates heat. As a result, hybrid water heaters can save you money on your energy bills.
In addition to being more efficient, hybrid water heaters are also more environmentally friendly than traditional electric water heaters. Heat pumps do not produce any emissions, so they do not contribute to climate change. Hybrid water heaters also use less energy than traditional electric water heaters, which means they have a smaller carbon footprint.
