Description:

Air Generate Attachable Water Heater

Authorized Dealer

Imagine a water heater that heats its water–not by gas, nor by electricity–but simply by the air surrounding it. Your power or gas bills would be significantly lower, and you would be doing the environment a service by conserving a considerable amount of energy.

The AirTap does just this. Once connected to your existing water heater, the AirTap™ unit acts as a conventional heat pump, using a compressor (powered by a low-wattage electric current) to extract heat from the surrounding air, and then sending this heat through long copper tubes into an adaptor where it is dispersed in your water tank. This, in turn, heats the water to the same degree as would a gas burner or electric heating component, distributing the hot water throughout your home safely and efficiently.

Other features also make this model a solid choice.

  • Easy to Use: The AIRTAP Water Heater plugs into a regular electric outlet and is easy to install.


  • Convenient: The AIRTAP Water Heater can be retro-fitted onto any existing gas or electric water heater.


  • Heater Output: The AIRTAP Water Heater supplies 7000 BTUs of heating power.

Product Reviews

AIRTAP 4 5 1 1
I've had one running for a little over a year now It works well, and the electricity savings are real. In my area, (Phoenix) we have "peak pricing" for electricity - the cost approaches 25 cents/kw during "peak" hours in the summertime. Using my "kill-a-watt" meter I've estimated my cost for running this unit at under $8 a month ( and that's assuming the unit only runs at "peak" pricing.) The true cost is probably closer to $5/month in the summer. It runs more often in the wintertime, but the electricity costs alot less then as well. Overall, installation was easy, and the payback is pretty quick - definitely under 5 years in my case. As far as the claims about dehumidifying the area around the unit or cooling it, I wouldn't expect much - sure it happens, but it doesn't run that often, and doesn't seem to cool the garage noticeably.
