Your Heating and Cooling Specialist on the Coast
At VPSolutions we know that every dollar counts and we are so excited to team with Mitsubishi Electric to bring you the Black Diamond Aquacore Hot Water Heat Pump. Check out the COP chart below. (COP (Coefficient of Performance) on electricity measures how efficiently a system uses electricity to produce heat or cooling. Higher COP means better efficiency and lower energy costs.)
Black Diamond AquaCore
Hot Water Heat Pump
A revolution in hot water heating.
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
With electricity bills on the rise, we’re are all looking for smarter ways to reduce heating costs. Did you know that heating water can take up about 30*1 of your home's energy bill?
​
The Black Diamond AquaCore Hot Water Heat Pump is a system designed right here in New Zealand, that uses advanced heat pump technology to provide reliable and efficient domestic hot water heating – no matter the temperature outside.
​
Boasting a super-efficient performance rating (COP) of 3.6, an AquaCore system could reduce your hot water heating costs by up to 80%† compared to traditional electric heaters.
​
While gas and electric heaters can be quite costly to run, with COP ratings as low as 0.82*2, choosing an AquaCore can offer a much more budget-friendly and energy-smart alternative.
​​​​​​​​​​​​Key Features
-
Fast hot water recovery – The AquaCore ensures water is heated to 62°C and is fed directly into the top of the cylinder. This means that this water is ready to use straight away.
-
Designed to easily integrate with existing or new hot water cylinders so you can benefit from capital cost savings on retrofits.
-
Return on investment could be as low as 3 years*4 when compared to a gas or direct electric heating system.
