  31. Questions:

    Do you have a heat pump water heater? I'm especially interested in either of these models (Geospring or Voltex X), of course, but they're relatively new and I assume not widely deployed yet. I'm curious to hear anyone's experience with a heat pump water heater, what went well or not. Has anyone seen these split heat pump water heaters (with outdoor compressors) in the wild?

    How would you choose between these two models, aside from price? /🧵

  36. Second, A. O. Smith's Voltex X:
    cleantechnica.com/2026/08/10/a
    hotwater.com/products/split-sy

    It's a split heat pump water heater, with the compressor outdoors. It uses #CO2 #refrigerant and therefore has a GWP of exactly 1.

    Pros:
    * Can use less indoor space, house is small
    * Does not cool house in winter
    * No need for resistance heat

    Cons:
    * Uses outdoor space, yard is also small
    * More expensive, outdoor unit needs 240v
    * Outdoor water lines could freeze
