Geyser is a high
efficiency heat pump water heater which connects to
an existing electric, gas, oil, or propane water
heater tank in a home or business. Geyser makes use
of a renewable energy source – the ambient air and
humidity in a garage, basement or utility room – to
heat the water.
Heating water is
typically the second largest cost of energy in a
home (after heating/cooling). An average family
spends in excess of $600 to heat water per year.
Traditional and
high efficiency water heating systems are only 60%
to 95% efficient. Geyser is 400% efficient. This
means for every 1 Kilowatt or BTU of energy required
to operate Geyser, an amazing 4.0 Kilowatts or BTU's
of energy are released directly to heat your water.
Geyser is so
advanced, that even the small amount of heat
generated by the unit is recycled and pumped back
into the hot water tank.
Because Geyser uses
surrounding renewable energy efficiently, total
energy costs are proportionally reduced meaning
fewer greenhouse gas emissions, a smaller overall
carbon footprint and a safer, healthier environment.
If water heaters
were replaced with Geyser, as a nation we would
avoid 19,600,000,000 pounds of carbon dioxide
emissions (and 140 other greenhouse noxious gases)
the equivalent of taking 1,600,000 cars off the
road. It is beyond green: as a nation, using less
energy is a stability factor and helps our national
security.
The amazing
bi-product of Geyser water heater is that
surrounding room is cooled and dehumidified –
reducing mold and mildew. The Geyser removes up to
50 pints of moisture per day in a 10' X 15' room.
The cost of operating an average sized dehumidifier
is around $365 per year and the purchase price can
be $200-$400. In rooms with a clothes dryer, the
Geyser recycles the heat produced by the clothes
dryer into the water tank.
Installing Geyser
close to an existing water heater is a simple step
that anyone can take to help the environment and
reduce demand on fossil fuels. The Geyser qualifies
for the Federal 30% Tax Credit for Renewable Energy
Equipment for an installed price up to $5,000.
Additional local government & utility incentives are
also be available. Installing Geyser to an existing
electric, gas, oil, or propane water heater tank is
an easy job for your professional installer.
Geyser's
reliability and short pay back makes it the logical
alternative to installing a solar water heating
system. As a matter of fact Geyser is the perfect
complement to reduce payback time for Solar systems.
When Geyser is combined with a Marathon low loss
water Tank, even greater efficiencies can be
obtained. Finally, Geyser can be be installed as a
Whole House Instant Water Heater because it has a
built-in circulation pump. Geyser is at least half
the operation and acquisition costs of Instant-tankless
systems and will reduce operation cost and increase
efficiencies of any Solar Water Heating Systems.
Geyser is green. Geyser has the smallest carbon
footprint of any water heating technologies that is
why we say Geyser is the most flexible and the most
energy efficient way to heat water on the market
today!
