What is a Heat Pump Water Heater?

A heat pump water heater is a piece of plumbing equipment that works like a refrigerator in reverse. Instead of using a compressor to pull heat from inside the refrigerator and transfer it to the surrounding room, a water heater heat pump uses the compressor to take heat from the surrounding air and transfer it inside a storage tank, where your water is heated and stored. It is a type of electric tank water heater that uses the air in the surrounding space to move the heat instead of burning a fuel to create heat. These water heaters are up to 400% more efficient, maximizing the heat produced from the electricity going in.

Will a Heat Pump Water Heater Work In My Home?

These are great water heater units, but installation can not just be anywhere in the home. There are factors other than cost when looking if a heat pump water heater is the right choice for your Santa Rosa home:

  • First of all, this is an electrical piece of equipment. It is important to check that the electrical panel will have room for the water heater. If there is no room, a panel upgrade may be needed.
  • Next, it is important to look at the size of the home and how many people there are. A heat pump water heater has a slower recovery time than gas or propane units; this is due to moving heat instead of burning a fuel to create it. Typically, homeowners will move up in water heater tank size when selecting a heat pump water heater.
  • It is also important to make sure there is enough surrounding space around the unit. These units are moving air, the more air around the unit the better. If space is limited, there are ducting and venting options to allow the water heater to be placed in tighter spots.
  • Making sure the unit will remain in high-efficiency temperatures above freezing. Once the air intake of the water heater is too cold the efficiency will drop. Santa Rosa does not have too many cold days like that, but it makes installation of these units very difficult in outdoor sheds. Most units will have an electric heating element that will kick in if the heat pump mode is inefficient.

Which Type Of Water Heater Is Best For
My Mill Valley, CA Home?

Thinking of installing a new hot water heater for your San Rafael or Mill Valley, California, home? Heating water can make up as much as 20% of the energy used in a Mill Valley home. Homes require energy-efficient water heaters to provide hot water and keep power expenditures reasonable in light of growing utility prices.

Gas Tank Water Heaters Natural Gas and Liquid Propane (8 -11 years lifespan)-

Dependable Mill Valley water heaters with proven technology. These are the most prevalent types of water heaters in American homes. Their operating efficiency is limited to 50% to 60%. Despite the fact that these devices squander 40–50 cents for every dollar spent, tank water heaters nonetheless function during earthquakes and power outages. It is anticipated that the price of natural gas will triple, while the cost of liquid propane is already exorbitant.

Electric Tank Water Heaters (10-15 years lifespan)-

These efficiently transfer heat by heating water through the use of electrical resistance components. But with our Bay Area electricity rates, it is costly to run a hot water heater like this.

High Efficiency Electric Heat Pump Water Heaters (13-15 years lifespan)-

This is the best and most recent Mill Valley water heating technology. These units have an efficiency of up to 400%. This means that 3–4 kW of water heating may be produced from 1 kW of electricity. The future lies in electrification, and there are numerous tax breaks and energy rebates available. These will also typically last longer than conventional water heaters.

Gas and Electric Tankless Water Heaters (up to 20 years with annual service)-

The most compact tankless water heaters that are available are also referred to as on-demand water heaters. Up to 96% of gas models are efficient. An electrical tankless water heater will save space, but because they need high-amperage electrical circuits, they are sadly not very popular. Most homeowners do not have easy access to these circuits.

Indirect Tank Water Heater (long lasting due to an indirect heat source)-

A hydronic boiler is typically used to heat this kind of Mill Valley water heater. The water in the storage tank is heated by the internal water coil of this type of water heater, which circulates extremely hot water. Twenty years ago, this kind of water heating was most common. Since heat pumps and tankless water heaters are more widely available, they are less common.

Solar Thermal Water Heaters (long lasting with higher repair costs)-

Sun-generated hot water, for free. A solar storage tank inside the building is heated by one or more thermal solar panels that are often mounted on the roof of these systems. The systems might be drain-backed, glycol-filled, or water-filled. The technology is excellent. Because they require more yearly service and repairs than other methods of heating water, these systems are currently not particularly popular.

What should I do if my main drain is clogged?

A clogged main drain is a very serious problem that should be considered a plumbing emergency that requires immediate attention. It is necessary for a plumbing professional to identify if it is a clogged drain or if your main sewer line is blocked.

The warning signs of a clogged drain include:

  • Water from different rooms drains too slowly
  • Water backs up in the shower, bathtub, or sink
  • There are puddles of water on the floor near the tub, bathtub, shower, or in the laundry room
  • You hear bubbling or gurgling sounds coming from one or more of your drains
  • Foul smells emanate from your drains

Can toilet paper clog a sewer line?

Toilet paper dissolves after a few minutes in water. However, a large amount of toilet paper can clog the sewer line and cause a blockage, especially if there are existing issues. The best way to determine if toilet paper is the cause of the blockage is to call a plumbing professional. Our professionals will be able to fix it in just a few minutes.

What is the purpose of hydro jetting service?

Hydro jetting is the process of clearing clogs and debris buildup on the walls of pipes throughout the plumbing system by using high-pressure water jets through the pipes. The water flushes away buildup inside your pipes, such as grease, minerals, and tree roots. Hydro jetting also breaks up clogs and other blockages.

The advantages of hydro jetting are:

  • It is chemical-free and is environmentally friendly
  • It avoids septic tank issues
  • It is easy to perform
  • It provides long-lasting results
  • It helps avoid pipe damage by preventing future major problems

Frequently Asked Questions

What are major sources of air pollutants?

There are two main sources of pollutants: particles and gases. The dust is visible in the air when the sunlight hits it and is in the range of 100 microns. Large particles settle as dust. Below 10 microns, particles float in the air longer. Below 2.5 microns, particles infiltrate the body through the lungs and can get into your bloodstream. Gases are tiny by micron standards. Gases are in the range of 0.0001 microns and are not effectively eliminated by filtration.

  • Particulate matter – dust particles, pollen.
  • Biological contaminants – bacteria, viruses, animal dander, mites, rodent or insect droppings, mold.
  • Building materials – older homes contain asbestos and lead. Newer homes contain chemicals and materials that outgas (VOC’s).
  • Fuel-burning appliances – can produce carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide, NO2.
  • Cleaning products and chemicals – also contaminate the air we breathe.

How effective are air filters?

In the Santa Rosa HVAC industry, we often joke that the standard one-inch fiberglass hardware store filter can stop golf balls. The effectiveness of air filters varies greatly. Paper or media filters are good for trapping particles. However, they do not purify or sterilize the air. Filters have a Merv rating as to how fine a particle they can filter out of the air.

  • 1 inch Fiberglass filter Merv 2/3 – effective to 10 microns – dust, pollen
  • 1 inch paper pleated Merv 8/10 – effective to 3 to 10 microns – dust, pollen
  • 4 inch paper pleated Merv 11/13 – effective to dust, pollens, dust mites, bacteria, lead, per dander 1 to 3 microns
  • HEPA pleated filter (8 inch to 12 inch thick) Merv 17/20 – 99.97% efficient removal of particulates – requires a special HVAC system as the filter is too resistive for a normal system fan 0.3 microns

For filtration to be effective, we need large, thick filters.

What are other air filtration solutions?

Electronic Air Cleaners
Air passes through charged plates or media. The charged plates ionize the air. There is often a prefilter that needs to be replaced regularly. Different manufacturers charge the wires differently, either with a negative or positive charge. After the charged ionizing wires, there are collector plates with the opposite electrical charge as the ionizing wires. Furthermore, the particles are given an opposite charge at the collector plates, which causes the particles to be automatically attracted to the oppositely charged collector plates. Lastly, some manufacturers claim that their electronic air cleaners filter particles down to one micron. The Respicaire Microclean 95 claims to be 95% efficient and effective down to 0.3 microns in a 1 inch thick filter (this is a very popular electronic air filter).

Air Purification
Air purification is the process of sanitizing the air by neutralizing airborne toxins (gases and off-gassing, bacteria, viral or fungal matter, toxic pathogens, etc.). Air purification uses a different method than an air filter to purify the air of toxins. Beyond filtration and the removal of particles, a residence needs some type of air purifier added to the air system to neutralize toxins, bacteria, viruses, etc.
This includes Air Scrubbers (trade name), ultraviolet sterilizers, air purifiers, and ozone generators. Air purifiers are typically portable and used in one room. Air Scrubbers install in your Santa Rosa HVAC system, continually scrubbing air as it circulates. Ozone is less popular today, as it can have harmful effects on the body.

Atomic Theory
An atom is neutral if it has equal numbers of protons and electrons.
If we use a purifier/sanitizer, we unbalance the atom through ionization. When an atom has extra electrons, the atom is a negative ion. An atom will always seek to be neutral. So, when an atom is ionized, it will seek out another ion to bond with to become a stable and happy ion. It will seek contaminants to bond with to balance itself.
