How It Works
The Ecosmart 285L draws heat from ambient air and transfers it into the water tank using refrigeration technology—just like a reverse-cycle air conditioner. With a COP of up to 4.5, the system is over four times more efficient than standard electric water heaters.
It includes smart temperature management, self-diagnostics, and built-in timers—plus off-peak compatibility for even greater cost savings when used alongside solar power systems.
