Reclaim Energy, an Australian-owned engineering company with over 14 years of expertise, specialises in energy-efficient hot water systems designed for Australian conditions. Their CO2 Heat Pump Hot Water System is engineered to cut hot water energy costs by up to 80%, providing a sustainable, low-impact solution for households and businesses.
In Australia, where electricity costs are notably high, switching to a more efficient hot water system can make a significant financial difference. Reclaim’s CO2 Heat Pump captures energy from ambient air using ozone-friendly CO2 refrigerant, which is then converted to high-temperature gas and transferred to heat water stored for later use—all without requiring a backup booster.
This system boasts a Coefficient of Performance (COP) of 5, meaning 1 kW of electricity produces about 5 kW of thermal output, which is vastly more efficient than conventional systems. As energy prices continue to rise, the Reclaim Energy CO2 Heat Pump Hot Water System stands out as a financially sustainable choice, with a clear edge in both performance and savings.
Heat pump energy and cost saving factors
- Increased energy efficiency: The Rheem AmbiPower Heat Pump is designed to be highly efficient, using ambient air to heat water. This means it requires less energy to operate compared to traditional gas heaters, translating into lower electricity bills.
- Reduced environmental impact: By moving away from fossil fuels to heat the hot water, the heat pump reduces the users carbon footprint making them a more sustainable option that contributes to a greener planet.
- Cost savings: The initial investment in a heat pump is offset by the long-term savings on energy bills. Additionally, with the removal of the gas water heater, the customer can now disconnect from the gas supply, eliminating the quarterly connection charges that were a constant drain on our finances.

What is Coefficient of Performance (COP)?
The Coefficient of Performance (COP) is a measure of the efficiency of heating and cooling systems. It is defined as the ratio of useful heating or cooling provided to the work or energy input required to deliver that heating or cooling.

Tips for choosing the right hot water system
Purchasing a new hot water system is an investment in your future and, as the hardest working appliance in your home, it’s important you purchase the right product for your needs now and into the future.
When we advise a customer on the best hot water system for their needs, we not only consider their hot water demands now but their projected usage in the future. For example, as small children grow into teenagers, they invariably use more hot water. Additionally, it’s important to not only consider the ‘humans’ in the home but the hot water usage requirements of other appliances such as washing machines and dishwashers which can use as much hot water as one person.
Below is a list of factors to consider when purchasing a new hot water system.
- How many bathrooms or members of your household will be using hot water at the same time?
- How many adults and children live in the home? Teenagers tend to use more hot water than small children.
- Are other appliances such as dishwashers and washing machines connected to the hot water system? Will they rely on the hot water system at the same time as household occupants?
- Will a bath or spa be used regularly?
- Where will the hot water system be installed and how much space is available?
- What are the available energy supplies (i.e. gas, electricity, solar)?
Note: Climate conditions and water pressure can also affect the hot water system that can be installed in your area. If you need advice, contact our friendly team.
