They absorb heat from the environment (various sources like air, water &amp; earth) and then pass it on to the water in the tank using a refrigeration process. Since they only need electricity for heat exchange, they enable energy saving.</p><h2 id="twotwo">How does a Heat Pump Water Heater work?</h2>

<p>In an electric heat pump water heater, the exhaust fan intakes air circulating in the atmosphere and shifts its energy to a liquid refrigerant agent present in the evaporator. When the liquid refrigerant comes in contact with hot air, it gets converted into its gaseous state. Now, the temperature of the gas refrigerant is increased by compressing it in an electric compressor. From here, the gas refrigerant is made to pass through a condenser containing water. The hot gas refrigerant transfers its heat to the water and regains its liquid state. After this, the liquid refrigerant goes to an expansion valve where its temperature cools down. Thus, it gets ready to flow into the evaporator and reinitiate the cycle.</p><h2 id="threethree">Racold Heat Pump Water Heaters: An overview</h2><p>At Racold, we provide two kinds of heat pump hot water heaters.
