Field monitoring of a variable-speed integrated heat-pump/water-heating appliance.

Author(s) : FANNEY A. H.

Summary

A variable-speed integrated heat-pump/water-heating appliance was monitored for two years while meeting the space-conditioning and water-heating needs of an occupied residence. Experimental results are presented that show the total energy consumed by the residence was significantly reduced compared to previous years in which electric baseboard heat, a wood stove, and window air conditioners were used. During the two space-heating seasons, the variable-speed integrated heat-pump/water-heating appliance used 60% less energy than would have consumed by an electric furnace with the same air distribution system and a storage-type electric water heater.
