Certificate counts are computed from the model's registered performance data using the current regulated equations. A lodged claim depends on the specific installation, household size, and the scheme rules in force at creation. Energy savings % is against the AS/NZS 4234:2021 reference electric storage water heater for that zone, medium household, calculated from the model's registered performance data.
The Eco Alliance 260L is a split-system heat pump water heater: an outdoor R410a heat pump unit paired with a 260 L enamel-lined steel storage tank. The heat pump circulates heated water to the tank via a water pump rather than running refrigerant through the tank directly, and delivers 3.5 kW of heating with 0.85 kW average input power (COP 4.23 at 55C outlet, 14C inlet water, 19C dry bulb / 15C wet bulb ambient). The unit runs across an ambient range of -7C to 40C and ships with a factory default outlet setting of 55C, adjustable 35 to 60C.
The manual names this physical tank ECO-260LS directly, alongside the ECO-260LE variant that shares the same heat pump and tank dimensions, and it matches the register model exactly.
Warranty covers the heat pump unit for 5 years parts and labour, and the tank for 5 years full replacement plus a further 1 year pro-rata (6 years total) in residential use; commercial/industrial installs reduce both to 1 year with no labour cover.
