Designed for new construction market

Ariston USA, a part of Ariston Group, a global leader in heat pump water heating, announced the launch of the Hybrid Builder Heat Pump residential water heater from American Standard Water Heaters as part of its U.S. builder segment focus.

The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump water heater is available in 40-, 50-, 65- and 80-gallon capacities in 208V or 240V single phase. The unit features I-Memory, a self-learning habit algorithm which will ensure homeowners have hot water when they need it and save energy when they don’t. It also features integrated Wi-Fi and a Comfort Link App that connects to a local internet network to remotely monitor and control the water heater through a free mobile app.

The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump has five operation modes to suit different water heating demands. The Comfort mode is the default factory setting. Green, Fast, Electric and Vacation are other modes that provide premium flexibility. A boost function allows for a single heat up cycle, using the heat pump and elements to decrease recovery time.

The unit includes a user-friendly LCD display, is Ecoport certified, and includes a full flow brass drain valve for quick and easy drainage and a factory-installed temperature and pressure relief valve. Dual backup incoloy heating elements add reliability.

A heavy gauge steel tank provides years of trouble-free service, and a glass-lined tank with DuraGlas™ fired at 1600˚ F adds optimum protection from corrosion and includes a powered anode rod as a standard feature. The unit comes with a 10-year limited warranty on tank and component parts.

The Hybrid Builder Heat Pump Water Heater adds up to 75 percent energy savings vs. standard electrics, has high efficiency up to 3.81 UEF and 87-gallon FHR, and meets Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance (NEEA) Tier 3 Advance Water Heater Specification.  Additionally, as with all of the American Standard Heat Pumps, it operates at a super-quiet 49.1 decibels.
