Product Description

The Voltex® Hybrid Electric Heat Pump reduces water heating cost by up to 73% through an innovative design that pulls environmental heat while dehumidifying and cooling the ambient air at the same time.

The HPTU-66CTA is smart grid ready for CTA-2045-A utility communication. It uses heat pump technology to deliver tremendous savings by generating heat through the heat pump technology instead of the heating elements. In addition to the heat pump technology, this model also has two heating elements that help the water heater recover quickly during periods of high demand. This Heat Pump is Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) qualified.

Improved efficiency designed to ensure available hot water at the lowest possible cost. Up to a 3.45 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) rating which conserves energy and meets ENERGY STAR® qualifications.

Utility Smart Grid Ready

This heater is equipped with a CTA-2045-A communication port to participate in a utility demand response program. This meets Washington State WAC 194-24-180 requirements.

Performance in Cool Climates

The Voltex Hybrid Electric water heater utilizes heat pump technology to provide a more efficient way to heat water with electricity.
• Heat from the surrounding air is pulled into the heat pump through a fan at the top
• The heat is absorbed by the refrigerant in the heat pump's evaporator coil
• The temperature of the refrigerant is increased as it is pumped by a compressor
• Hot refrigerant is passed through the condenser coil around the tank and transfers the heat to the water

Rebate and incentive programs provide cash-back to consumers for the purchase of appliances that meet certain energy efficiency standards. Often, these standards are tied to the ENERGY STAR® certification program.

Cash for Appliances is designed to encourage the purchase of energy efficient appliances. Consumers who purchase ENERGY STAR® certified or CEE qualified appliances can receive cash rebates. Most states are offering rebates in the $50 to $250 range.
