The Nyle Corporation's latest and
more efficient water heater.
You may recognize the grey
conventional electric water heater in
the photo.  What you may be
wondering about is the tan colored
appliance to the right of and
connected to the tank, It is a
Nyletherm-1 heat pump water
heater. The combination of these
two appliances will heat 2.38 times
the amount of hot water as an
electric water heater for a given
amount of electricity.  As a
byproduct of this union the
Nyletherm dehumidifies and
produces 6,000 BTUH of
air-conditioning while it is operating
.
tandem installation of Nyletherm Heat Pump Water Heater and a conventional water heater saves on electricity consumption
schematic photograph illustrates the operation of a Nyletherm-1 Heat Pump Water Heater.
see the savings generated by the combination of a gravity film waste water heat exchanger (GFX)  and two Nyletherm-1 heat pump water heaters.
As you can see from the schematic
photo to the right the
NYLETHERM-1 collects heat from
the air that is drawn through it and
transfers it into the water heater
tank.  While you could put this
combination anywhere that remains
above 40 degrees Fahrenheit and
successfully collect heat, you should
consider the following.

The more humid the air the higher
the unit efficiency.

The warmer the air the higher the
efficiency.

The NYLETHERM-1 makes as much
noise as a dehumidifier.

It is unwise to pay to heat a space,
and then collect that heat to heat
your water.

On the other hand, if you heat with an
inexpensive fuel like wood or pellets
and there is lots of excess heat in
the vicinity of the stove, then it
makes  sense to utilize that waste
heat.

There are many unfinished
basements  that are toasty warm all
winter long because of the
uninsulated piping or  ducts.  This
warmth is lost and will not find its
way up to your living space so it  
makes sense to collect that waste
heat, putting it to use to heat your hot
water.

Creative Dwellings, Inc.has just acquired the Nyle
Corporation's latest much improved Heat pump water heater
We are presently looking for a 12 month test site  to put the
new model through our own testing.  In terms of installation it
is much easier to install.  It's fit and finish looks great.  The
efficiency chart looks great as well. We have set our test unit
up and it is much quieter than the Nyletherm-1 As soon as we
get data back we will share it  with you to help you with your
next water heater decision. I am sure you will go with the
