The AmbiPower® MDc-180 Heat Pump is recommended for upgrading small to medium electric water heaters. It offers an energy-efficient alternative to standard gas and electric water heaters. It ensures a dependable, effective and eco-friendly approach to minimise your water heating energy usage without the necessity of direct sunlight to operate.

The AmbiPower is a powerful and efficient heat pump with a high Coefficient of Performance, powerful boost element and hot water recovery, making it an ideal choice.

Save almost 70% on your water heating energy consumption compared to an electric water heater.*

  • Advanced wrap-around microchannel technology provides a larger contact area for more efficient water heating.
  • Works day and night
  • Enamel coating reduces the risk of corrosion
  • Side fan design that provides maximum airflow
  • Suitable for cold and frost climates with an operating range from -7°C to +43°C
  • Suitable for harsh water conditions
  • 2.4 kW back-up element to provide hot water in very cold conditions
  • LED touchscreen controller provides optimum visibility of product performance information
  • Durable outer shell in painted metal sheet design to withstand harsh weather conditions
  • Suitable for households up to 4 people
  • 7-year cylinder warranty
  • Coefficient of Performance (COP) ratio of useful heat produced is 4.9 @ 19°C⌃, which makes this model a highly efficient water heater to help reduce energy consumption by up to 70%*

⌃ The COP of 4.5 is the average value in the AS/NZS5125 performance test at 19°C ambient temperature over the entire heat-up process. Note that the actual COP of the product at any given time will be impacted by a number of factors, including the ambient and cold-water inlet temperatures at the place of installation and time of day/season of operation.

* Energy savings of up to 70% are based on New Zealand Government approved TRNSYS simulation modelling using a medium load and apply when replacing an electric water heater of a similar size with a Rheem A551180C5 Heat Pump water heater.
