Product Features

Why the EcoSmart Pro-Series?

Smart, efficient heat pump hot water, engineered for Australian homes.

Comfortably supplies households of up to seven people on a continuous tariff.

Natural R290 Refrigerant

A similar footprint to the electric water heaters it's designed to replace, for a straightforward upgrade.

Commercial-Spec Tank

Commercial-specification enamel and anode protect the tank for long, dependable service.

How the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series heat pump works — drawing heat from the air into the tank
How It Works

Heat From the Air, Not an Element

A fan draws in the surrounding air, and a refrigerant circuit using natural R290 transfers that heat into the 270-litre tank — much like a refrigerator running in reverse. Moving heat rather than generating it is what makes the EcoSmart Pro-Series so efficient.

On very cold days, or when you want an extra single-shot boost, a back-up electric element steps in automatically — so there's always plenty of hot water, whatever the weather.

Energy Efficient

Up to 73.1% Less Energy

FAQs

Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series 270L heat pump?

The Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series is a 270-litre heat pump hot water system. Rather than heating water with an element, it uses electricity to move heat from the surrounding air into the tank — using up to 73.1% less energy than a standard electric water heater, which suits South-East Queensland's warm climate perfectly.

How does the Dux EcoSmart heat pump work?

A fan draws in ambient air and a refrigerant circuit — using natural R290 — transfers that heat into the 270L storage tank, much like a refrigerator running in reverse. A back-up electric element provides heating in very cold conditions or for a single-shot boost, so you never run short.

How much energy does the EcoSmart Pro-Series save?

Up to 73.1% less energy than a standard electric water heater. Because it moves heat instead of generating it, the EcoSmart Pro-Series heats up to 77 litres per hour on the heat pump alone — a full tank in around 3.5 hours — which can significantly lower your hot water running costs.

What size household does the 270L EcoSmart suit?

The 270-litre tank is sized for households of up to seven people on a continuous tariff. If you're not sure what suits your home, call 1300 728 122 and we'll help you match the right heat pump and size.

Is the R290 refrigerant environmentally friendly?

Yes. The EcoSmart Pro-Series uses natural R290 refrigerant, which has a global-warming potential (GWP) of just 3 — far lower than many synthetic refrigerants — making it a cleaner choice for the environment.

Do you install and service the Dux EcoSmart across South-East Queensland?
Yes — our licensed technicians supply, install, service and provide hot water system repairs for the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Bribie Island and Gympie, with genuine spare parts. It's an external installation with a footprint similar to the electric heater it replaces.
What warranty does the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series come with?

The EcoSmart Pro-Series is backed by a 5-year warranty on the tank and refrigeration components (including labour), plus 1 year on other components (parts and labour). Warranty terms and conditions apply.

Can you repair my Dux EcoSmart heat pump?
Yes. Our licensed technicians repair the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series — from valves, thermostats and elements through to the heat pump and refrigeration components — and we carry genuine spare parts. If a repair isn't worthwhile, we'll give you honest advice on replacement.
How often should the Dux EcoSmart Pro-Series be serviced?

As a guide, a heat pump hot water system like the EcoSmart Pro-Series benefits from a service every few years. Checking the sacrificial anode, pressure-relief valves and the heat pump's operation keeps it running efficiently, extends its life and helps protect your warranty. We service the EcoSmart across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Bribie Island and Gympie.

Do you offer same-day hot water service?
In most cases, yes. We offer same-day supply, installation and hot water repairs across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, Bribie Island and Gympie — so if your hot water is out, call 1300 728 122 and we'll get you sorted fast.
