2a:
One Of The World’s Most Energy Efficient Methods Of Water Heating Production
We thank you for your decision to purchase a Quantum Energy Technologies Heat Pump Water
Heater, which will reward you with many years of low energy hot water production.
QUANTUM ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES Pty Ltd designs and manufactures energy efficient heat
pump water heaters. The simple way to explain the advantage of this heater is that it saves energy
in any weather, even at night.
For example, one of the models uses 1kW of electrical energy, however, they are able to put up to
3.6kW of heat energy into the water with 20°C ambient air. The system can save up to 75% of
conventional water heater’s energy utilisation; greatly assisting in the worldwide greenhouse gas
reduction campaign.
As the name indicates, a Heat Pump is a machine that pumps heat from a low temperature source
to a high temperature reservoir. It has a cold side to absorb heat at low temperatures and a hot side
to deliver heat at high temperatures.
Quantum heat pump water heater has an air conditioning coil as the cold side of the refrigeration
circuit. This coil absorbs the heat from air that is forced through it by means of the fan. The
Compact design is installed like a conventional electric water heater i.e. the electrical and
plumbing connections are completed in the same manner.
There is also the Split design, which can be used to recover heat from a warm area like the roof
space or the kitchen. The remote fan coil (energy collector) absorbs the heat energy from the
warm air. Alternatively, the waste heat from the building can be used as the heat source.
QUANTUM heat pump water heaters can save energy in countries all around the world. They are
used in all weather conditions for domestic, commercial and industrial applications, and are
regarded as the most energy efficient and practical water heaters available.
This is your assurance that you have purchased one of the highest quality water heaters on the
market and the one that will provide continuous hot water for all your needs – safely,
economically, and for many years to come.
2b: Time Delay On Start
NOTE: The system has a 10-minute time delay on start or restart. When the power is first
connected or after a disconnection then re connection, the time delay on start will occur. The
compressor and fan will not operate until the completion of this time delay period.
2c: Features Of Your Quantum Water Heaters
1. Fully welded steel tank with class X vitreous enamel lining for superior corrosion
resistance and longer life.
2. Indirect heat transfer eliminates cross contamination and tank hot spots.
3. No electrical element. The safest and one of the most energy efficient Heat Pump systems
in the world, especially in cold weather, the efficiency is higher than any other solar/heat
pump systems on the market.
4. Able to save more money than any other solar/heat pump systems on the market.
