Heat Pump Water Heaters: Efficient, Eco-Friendly Hot Water
At College Fund Plumbing, we install and service heat pump water heaters from trusted brands, delivering reliable hot water and maximum energy savings.
Heat pump technology isn’t just efficient today — it will soon become the standard. The U.S. Department of Energy has finalized new rules requiring most electric water heaters over 35 gallons to meet heat pump efficiency standards starting May 6, 2029.
Surprised? We’re not.
Lowest cost per gallon of hot water — nothing else comes close when comparing installation and operating costs.
Inflation-proof efficiency — uses surrounding air to heat water, saving energy regardless of utility rates.
Heavily subsidized — enjoy rebates at purchase, plus federal tax credits (Form 5695) for even more savings.
Ideal for our area — in Oregon’s climate, installing these units in a garage is a smart, eco-friendly choice.
Working With Alternative or Customer-Supplied Technologies
At College Fund Plumbing, we know customers sometimes bring their own equipment or choose alternative water heating technologies. We’re happy to work with new systems — but only after a careful review to ensure it meets safety, code, and performance standards.
Before proceeding, we consult with the manufacturer’s engineering department and technical support to confirm correct installation methods, warranty requirements, and any local code adjustments. This guarantees your investment performs as expected and remains protected under warranty.
One example is the Sanco2 heat pump water heater, an advanced CO2-based system gaining popularity for its high efficiency and environmentally friendly refrigerant. Our team reviews manufacturer engineering specifications and installation guidelines for every Sanco2 system before beginning work, so you can feel confident it will be installed properly and perform to its full potential.
