The Haier HP250M1-U1 is an integral heat pump water heater: the R290 heat pump and a 250 L nominal (246 L total water capacity) enamel-lined steel tank are built into a single monobloc cabinet, 600 mm wide and 1951 mm tall, weighing 106 kg. It shares the same 2.0 kW average heating capacity and 0.43 kW rated compressor power input as the 200 L model, tested at 20/15 degrees C ambient (DB/WB) heating water from 15 to 55 degrees C for a declared COP of 4.48, and produces 43 dB(A) at 1 m. Refrigerant charge is 0.34 kg of R290.
The heat pump operates from -7 to 45 degrees C ambient. A 1.5 kW electric element provides backup and boost heating, with the outlet temperature adjustable from 35 to 75 degrees C (65 degrees C maximum on heat pump alone) and a factory default of 60 degrees C. The unit includes a built-in Wi-Fi module and SmartHQ app control.
Certified to AS/NZS 2712 and AS 3498 (confirmed on the HP330M1U1 sibling model in the same monoblock range; this specification guide covers all three tank sizes on one shared platform). This unit is sold in Australia and New Zealand under the Haier brand.
