Ruud Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water Heater Installation & Service
Want to lower your water heating costs while making your home more energy efficient?
Consider a hybrid heat pump water heater.
The Ruud® Ultra™ Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water Heater uses heat pump technology to pull heat energy from the surrounding air and transfer it to the water in the tank. This highly efficient approach can use significantly less energy than a standard electric tank water heater while still providing the hot water your household needs.
At Robben & Sons Heating, we help homeowners throughout Oregon & Southwest Washington find efficient, dependable solutions for their home comfort needs. The Ruud Ultra Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water Heater combines energy efficiency with smart controls, quiet operation, flexible installation options, and available built-in leak protection. Available in 40-, 50-, 65-, and 80-gallon capacities, there are options for a variety of household hot water needs.
Here are five reasons to consider a Ruud hybrid heat pump water heater for your home:
1. Reduce Water Heating Energy Use
Heat pump water heaters work differently from conventional electric water heaters. Instead of relying solely on electric resistance heating, the Ruud Ultra Hybrid pulls heat from the surrounding air. Refrigerant absorbs that heat before a compressor moves the heated refrigerant to condenser tubing, where the heat is transferred to the water inside the tank.
This process can significantly reduce energy consumption. According to Ruud, its Ultra Hybrid Electric Heat Pump Water Heater uses 75% less energy than a standard electric water heater of similar capacity and minimum efficiency.
2. Save on Water Heating Costs
Greater efficiency can translate into meaningful savings over the life of your water heater. Ruud estimates that its Ultra Hybrid models can provide up to $576 in annual energy cost savings compared with a standard electric water heater of similar capacity and minimum efficiency.
The system also offers energy-saving scheduling. You can program your water heater for greater hot water production during high-demand periods and lower production when hot water demand is reduced. Vacation or Away Mode can further reduce water heating costs when you're away from home.
3. Control Your Water Heater From Your Phone
Built-in Wi-Fi and EcoNet technology give you more control over how your water heater operates. With a Wi-Fi connection and the EcoNet App, homeowners can schedule operating modes and temperature set points, view and manage alerts, and track energy usage directly from a smartphone.
That makes it easier to manage your hot water and energy use without having to make adjustments directly at the water heater.
4. Enjoy Quiet, Flexible Operation
An efficient water heater shouldn't disrupt your home. The Ruud Ultra Hybrid operates at 45 dBA, based on third-party certified testing measured from 6.28 feet away.
It's also designed to accommodate a variety of installation situations. Zero side-clearance requirements, top and side water connections, and a duct-ready design provide added flexibility, including for homes with limited installation space.
5. Add Protection Against Water Leaks
Select Ruud Ultra Hybrid models with LeakGuard provide additional protection against potentially damaging water leaks. Built-in features include a 360-degree leak detection cable and an automatic water shut-off valve that can respond when a leak is detected.
Ruud Ultra Hybrid models also include a 10-year limited tank and parts warranty, providing additional peace of mind with your new water heater. See the applicable Ruud residential warranty for complete coverage and warranty details.
