Title: geospring water heater
Post by: Ash on July 12, 2014, 08:06:05 AM

I am considering replacing my oil hot water heater with a GE Geospring Hybrid hot water heater. I currently have my heat exchanger (20-plate) plumbed in before my water heater.  Can I do the same thing on the Geospring without causing issues to the heatpump?

Those heat pump water heaters only work to their specification claims when their ambient room temps are 84 degrees and warmer constantly. They make the same amount as a standard 50 gal electric no more. And will be in hybrid mode if air temp is below that or high demand use like 10 minute shower or back to back showers
