In this video I explain why a heat pump water heater isn't right for every home. For all of its benefits it has many more problems than most people would expect. The heat pump portion of the water heater requires 220 volt electrical service. The water heater is the equivalent of a 15 gallon natural gas was heater as far as ability to make gallons of hot water.
