GeoSpring is expected to reduce water heater operating costs up to 62% and save $320 per year, and it uses a heat pump to draw warm air from the surrounding environment as the primary means to heat the water, whereas a standard electric water heater relies solely on electric heating elements.

Weatherization Assistance programs enable low-income families to permanently reduce their energy bills by making their homes more energy efficient, and the federal funds are allocated to states to improve energy performance using the most advanced technology and testing protocols in the housing industry.

Weatherization Assistance programs also prefer the GeoSpring’s ease of installation, and it uses the existing water and electrical connections and occupies the same footprint of a standard 50-gallon tank water heater.
