Quantum Heat Pump
A heat pump designed in Australia. Heat pumps are solar water heaters that take the sun's heat energy from the air rather than from direct sunlight and can save up to 75% of the electricity used by conventional electricity. Consequently they are a perfect application for locations that don't have solar access and can even out perform solar systems if they have been poorly maintained.
They also produce large scale energy efficient heating and cooling applications using heat pump technology.
