Here you go George and Steve. Posting works great, just have to switch to modern view.
Running short on connection places is easy to solve. The black one had only 3 wires going to it, but what I didn't know was what the capacitor did for the compressor so I had no clue what the different spades were for.
This is the heat pump water heater. As you would expect, it removes heat from the air to heat the water. The byproduct, expelled from a fan at the top, is cool dry air. It was ducted into our house air system. Condensate goes down the drain through that tube. As we don't need air conditioning in a house that never gets hot, we do use dehumidification. Virginia is humid. The heat pump provided 50% of our required dehumidification as a free byproduct of heating water 2-3 times more efficiently than a resistance tank heater.
We used this seasonally, it paid for itself in just under 2 seasons. The next 11 years were a free ride.
Heat pump water heaters have been around for 40 years, never got much market share due to lack of promotion. I've been responsible for a lot of sales, from people with needs like mine. Not just cheap hot water, but also dehumidification. That's where these units really shine.
If I can't find another manufacturer, I'll switch to active solar for water heating. I've already got the hardware, but our dehumidification need made solar second choice. Might increase our small electric bill $5/month.
