Heat Pump Water Heater Technology
Unlike conventional electric water heaters that rely exclusively on resistance heating, the LG APHWC801L uses advanced heat pump technology to capture heat from the surrounding air and transfer it into the water stored inside the tank. This highly efficient process uses substantially less electricity while maintaining reliable hot water for everyday household needs.
During periods of increased demand, the upper and lower electric heating elements automatically supplement the heat pump to provide faster recovery, ensuring dependable hot water for multiple simultaneous showers, appliances, and household activities.

How Hybrid Heat Pump Water Heaters Save Energy
Hybrid heat pump water heaters operate by transferring heat instead of generating it entirely through electric resistance elements. This process significantly reduces electricity usage while still providing reliable hot water for larger households.
The APHWC801L features a 3.90 Uniform Energy Factor (UEF) and delivers a First Hour Rating of up to 94 gallons, providing an excellent balance of energy efficiency and high-capacity performance for demanding residential applications.
Demand Response Ready
What Is Demand Response?
Demand Response allows the water heater to adjust when it uses electricity based on utility signals, energy prices, or grid conditions. Instead of using as much energy during periods of high electricity demand, the water heater can shift some energy use to other times while continuing to provide hot water when needed. This can help utilities manage peak electricity demand and may help participating customers take advantage of available energy programs or incentives.
Why It Matters for California Customers
California utilities use demand-response and load-shifting programs to help manage periods of high electricity demand and better utilize available renewable energy. The LG APHWC501D and APHWC801D are designed with Demand Response functionality to support compatible utility programs and energy-management strategies.
Potential California Rebates & Incentives
Qualified California customers may be eligible for rebates or other incentives when purchasing and installing a qualifying heat pump water heater. Available incentives vary by utility service territory, location, program funding, installation requirements, and customer eligibility.
Important Rebate Information:
Demand Response Ready does not guarantee a rebate. Rebate availability, amounts, eligibility requirements, and program deadlines are determined by the applicable utility or incentive program and may change without notice. Customers should verify current rebate requirements with their local utility or applicable program before purchasing or installing the water heater.
Warranty
The LG APHWC801L includes a manufacturer's limited warranty covering the storage tank and functional components, including a 10-year limited warranty on the water tank and compressor and a 1-year limited parts warranty. Always verify local plumbing codes, electrical requirements, condensate drainage, installation clearances, and maintenance recommendations before installation to ensure proper operation and warranty compliance.
