The heat pump water heater is the fourth generation of new water heaters after gas water heaters, electric water heaters and solar water heaters. It uses a small amount of electric energy to carry heat and heat bath water, and the efficiency reaches 300%, which is three times that of electric water heaters. At the same time, the high-temperature refrigerant is used to heat the cold water, and the water and electricity are completely separated, which is safe and reliable. Therefore, the heat pump water heater has the significant advantages of energy saving, environmental protection and safety, and is a new generation of water heater products. However, the current price is still relatively expensive, which has affected the extensive use and promotion of the product. With the improvement of people's living standards, higher requirements are placed on safety and comfort, and heat pump water heaters will surely usher in the spring of development.
