About the Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 Heat Pump

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 uses heat pump technology to draw heat from the surrounding air and transfer that heat into the stored water.

R290 Heat Pump Efficiency

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 uses R290 refrigerant and heat pump technology to help heat water more efficiently than a standard electric storage hot water system.

Instead of relying only on direct electric element heating, the heat pump draws heat from the surrounding air and transfers that energy into the stored water. This allows the system to deliver hot water using less electrical input under suitable operating conditions.

Actual running cost savings can vary depending on the system being replaced, household usage, energy tariff, climate, installation location, timer settings and whether the home uses solar PV.

Larger Tank Capacity for Family Use

The 260L tank volume makes the Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 a practical option for homes needing more stored hot water than many smaller heat pump systems provide.

This larger storage capacity is useful for family homes, higher-use households and replacement jobs where the old system was a larger electric storage water heater.

The Dynamic X8 is commonly considered for customers replacing selected 315L to 400L electric hot water systems provided the site conditions and household demand suit a heat pump installation.

Electric Element Support

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 includes electric element support to help the system reach higher water temperatures and assist during periods of higher hot water demand or less favourable heat pump operating conditions.

This makes it useful for households that want heat pump efficiency most of the time, with additional heating support available when required.

Solar PV Friendly Operation

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 can be a strong option for homes with solar PV where the system is set up to run during daylight hours.

Because heat pump systems can store hot water after heating, customers with solar may be able to schedule hot water production during periods when solar generation is available depending on the electrical setup, tariff, timer settings and installation conditions.

This makes the Dynamic X8 a practical option for customers wanting to use more of their own solar power for hot water where suitable.

Vitreous Enamel Tank

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 uses a vitreous enamel tank designed for hot water storage durability.

Vitreous enamel tanks are commonly used in electric and heat pump hot water systems because they provide a protective internal lining. Correct installation, water quality, anode protection, servicing and warranty conditions still apply.

Common Uses

The Hydrotherm Dynamic X8 can be suitable for:

• electric hot water system replacement

• heat pump hot water upgrades

• family homes

• rental properties

• investment homes

• higher-use households

• homes replacing selected 315L to 400L electric systems

• homes wanting more capacity than a compact heat pump

• homes with solar PV where daytime operation can be scheduled

• customers wanting lower energy use than standard electric storage
