Pros
  • Plugs into a standard 120 V outlet, so it can replace a gas tank without a new 240 V circuit
  • Built-in Wi-Fi: set schedules and vacation mode from the EcoNet app
  • 10-year tank and parts warranty plus 1 year of labor
Cons
  • No backup element: hot water depends entirely on the heat pump, so heavy use can run it out
  • Stops heating when the room drops below 37 °F

Alternatives in this size

Navien NWP500 80 Gal

Navien’s stainless-tank hybrid, sold through plumbers, with a 10-year warranty that includes a year of labor. Its heat pump stops below 41 °F room air, so it suits a basement more than a cold garage.

Rheem ProTerra 15 A 80 Gal

The ProTerra for a home that only has a 15 A, 240 V circuit, such as one left by a small electric tank: it avoids rewiring but gives up some efficiency and first-hour delivery.
