The Retrofit-ready Heat Pump Water Heater:
120 Volts to the Future

Featuring GE, AO Smith & Rheem


May 13, 2021 from 10am - 11:30 AM PST
Register now!
For homes with electrical panels with 100 amp or less capacity, installing a heat pump water heater can require a panel upgrade—a potentially expensive and time consuming exercise.

Join BDC and NBI on May 13th as we discuss the latest promising developments in Heat Pump Water Heater (HPWH) technologies that may avoid this expensive and time consuming exercise!
 
Tom Zimmer (GE), Arthur Smith (A.O. Smith), and Kevin Clark (Rheem) will unveil a new generation of ‘Plug In,’ HPWH devices, which are compatible with current residential electrical systems. Requiring just 120 volts and low amperage, this exciting new class of HPWH eliminates the need for most electrical panel upgrades. Their ease of use will help accelerate the use of clean energy appliances that are essential to decarbonizing our homes.

You won't want to miss this discussion of a brand new product offering and the plans for how to deploy these innovative technologies. We look forward to seeing you!
