Hot Water Heat Pumps Christchurch & Canterbury
Reduce your hot water heating cost with a hot water heat pump
What is a hot water heat pump?
A hot water heat pump is an energy efficient system that uses electricity to transfer heat from the air into your water cylinder, rather than generating heat directly like a traditional electric water heater. It works much like a reverse refrigerator extracting warmth from the surrounding air and using it to heat water for your home.
Key benefits:
Energy efficient: Uses up to 70% less electricity than standard electric water heaters.
Lower running costs: Reduced power bills over time.
Eco-friendly: Lower carbon footprint, especially when paired with solar.
Reliable: Works year-round, even in colder temperatures.
Consistent hot water
Hot water heat pumps are ideal for homes looking to cut energy costs and reduce environmental impact without compromising hot water availability.

Why you should choose an AquaCore Hot Water Heat Pump?
What makes the Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump stand out from other hot water heating solutions? Here is why this hot water heat pump is the best choice for your home:

You may not know this, but average domestic hot water heating is responsible for around 20% of your energy bill. With the rising cost of electricity and gas, finding an efficient and cost-effective solution for heating water is crucial. So, if you are looking for the best way to reduce your heating water bills, go for the Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump.
Like the heat pump technology has revolutionised how we heat and cool our homes, it is now taking over the hot water heating industry. The Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump uses the same principles as air conditioning units or refrigerators to transfer heat from one place to another to heat water.
Most traditional hot water heaters use electricity or gas to directly heat the water, which can be expensive and inefficient. On the other hand, heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from the surrounding air into a refrigerant gas. The gas is compressed, heated, and then transferred to your hot water cylinder via the Aquacore Hydrobox unit, making it a highly efficient and portable solution for heating water.
Reduce your bills by up to 80% compared to the old element systems, and enjoy a year-round hot water supply with the Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump. Not only does it save you money, but it also reduces your carbon footprint by using renewable energy sources.

The Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump can be installed during the construction of a new home or retrofitted into an existing home. The installation process for the hot water heat pumps in Christchurch & Canterbury is straightforward and typically takes less than a day.
If you are constructing a new home, we also recommend considering the Mitsubishi/BDT Ecodan Hot Water Heat Pump system as your primary source for hot water heating. This system can be installed as a 'stand-alone' unit for potable hot water or integrated with your full home heating, offering cost-effective installation and a more efficient, sustainable solution for your hot water needs.
However, the Black Diamond AquaCore hot water heat pump can be retrofitted into your current hot water system for existing homes. This simple process involves connecting the heat pump to your existing hot water cylinder. Our team at Modserve can assess your current setup and provide a customised solution that meets your hot water heating needs.
