EMERALD ALL-IN-ONE PRO HEAT PUMP HOT WATER

Emerald All-In-One Pro 270L E-Heater Heat Pump Hot Water System

The Emerald All-In-One Pro 270L E-Heater is an integrated heat pump hot water system designed for family households wanting efficient hot water heating together with additional electric-element backup. The residential model is EE-HWS-A1-270E.

It combines a 270-litre storage tank, R290 refrigerant, DC inverter compressor technology, built-in Wi-Fi and a 1.6kW electric heating element in one upright all-in-one unit.

Emerald's current household-size guide positions the 270L All-In-One Pro for approximately 4–5 people, although actual suitability depends on shower length, water use, baths, climate, operating schedule and household habits.

Installed Today offers the Emerald 270L E-Heater as a supply-only unit across supported Australian locations, with supply-and-install options across eligible Brisbane and Gold Coast service areas.

Emerald 270L E-Heater at a glance: a 270L R290 all-in-one heat pump with DC inverter technology, a 1.6kW backup element, built-in Wi-Fi and Emerald App control. Emerald lists a Standard-mode COP of 4.8, 58 L/hr Standard recharge rate, 108 L/hr Booster recharge rate and 4–5 person household-size guide.
WHAT IT IS

What Is the Emerald All-In-One Pro 270L E-Heater?

The Emerald All-In-One Pro uses heat pump technology to transfer heat from the surrounding air into the stored hot water.

Rather than relying primarily on a conventional electric resistance element, the compressor, evaporator, fan and refrigerant circuit perform most of the heating work during normal heat-pump operation.

The 270E version adds a 1.6kW electric element. This gives the system additional recovery and backup capability when required while allowing the heat pump to remain the main heating technology during normal operation.

WHO IT SUITS

Who Is the Emerald 270L E-Heater Best For?

4–5 Person Households

Emerald's current size guide positions the 270L All-In-One Pro for households of approximately four to five people.

Family Hot Water Demand

The 270L model provides more stored capacity than Emerald's 220L system without moving to the larger 320L tank.

Electric Storage Upgrades

It can suit homes replacing conventional electric storage where the proposed location has suitable plumbing, electrical supply, drainage, airflow and service access.

Household sizing is a manufacturer guide only. Long showers, high-flow shower heads, baths and closely grouped hot water use can materially change the required storage capacity.

*Emerald performance figures are laboratory results based on stated test conditions of 20°C/15°C ambient and heating water from 15°C to 55°C. Actual household performance varies.

E-HEATER VERSION

What Does the Built-In Electric Element Do?

The EE-HWS-A1-270E includes a 1.6kW electric element. The comparable EE-HWS-A1-270 does not.

The element gives the 270E additional heating support during Booster operation and provides element-only backup capability when required by the system.

Standard Mode

Standard mode uses the heat pump. Emerald lists 2.8kW heating capacity, 0.58kW rated input and a COP of 4.8 under its stated test conditions.

Booster Mode

On the E model, the heat pump and electric element can operate together when the target is 60°C or below to increase recovery speed.

Element Backup

Emerald's controller instructions provide element-only operation on E models as backup heating if the heat pump cannot operate normally.

OPERATING MODES

Standard, Silent, Booster & E-Heater Modes

Standard Mode

The normal residential operating mode. Emerald locks the Standard-mode target temperature at 60°C.

Silent Mode

Runs the heat pump at reduced output for quieter operation. Emerald lists 45 dB(A) at 1 metre under its laboratory test conditions.

Booster Mode

On the E-Heater model, Booster can combine heat-pump operation with the electric element for faster recovery. The controller allows an E-model Boost target up to 70°C.

E-Heater Operation

The electric element can provide element-only heating on the E version when required by the system.

Emerald describes Silent, Booster and E-Heater functions as one-shot modes that return to Standard operation after the applicable cycle or period.

Booster 5.2kW 2.4kW 4.5 108 L/hr Manufacturer mode data applies
E-Heater 1.6kW 1.6kW N/A 33 L/hr Element-only operation

These figures are manufacturer laboratory results, not guaranteed performance in every climate, installation or household.

EFFICIENCY

What Does a COP of 4.8 Mean?

Emerald lists a COP of 4.8 for the 270L system in Standard heat-pump mode under its stated laboratory test conditions.

COP compares the heating output produced with the electrical input used at that particular test point. It demonstrates the heat-transfer advantage of a heat pump compared with directly producing all of the heat through an electric resistance element.

The real COP will change with ambient temperature, incoming cold-water temperature, target temperature, operating mode, airflow, installation and use of the electric element.

R290 & DC INVERTER

R290 Refrigerant and DC Inverter Technology

The Emerald 270L Pro uses R290 natural refrigerant. Emerald lists R290 with a Global Warming Potential of 3.

The current manufacturer specification lists an R290 charge of 400 grams for the 270L model.

DC inverter technology allows compressor and fan output to vary rather than operating only at one fixed speed. Emerald uses this to support Standard, Silent and higher-output Booster operation.

SMART CONTROL

Built-In Wi-Fi & Emerald App Control

The Emerald All-In-One Pro includes built-in Wi-Fi and supports connection to Emerald App.

Current Emerald App functionality for the heat pump includes:

  • Remote on and off control
  • Real-time water temperature
  • Estimated tank capacity
  • Heat-pump electricity-consumption information
  • Boost control
  • Silent-mode control
  • Smart Actions
  • Scheduling and automation

App features can change as Emerald updates its connected platform.

SMART SCHEDULING

Can the Emerald 270L Be Scheduled Around Your Household?

Yes. Emerald provides timer functions through the controller and Smart Actions through Emerald App.

The onboard controller supports up to three daily on/off timer periods. This allows operation to be arranged around household routines or preferred electricity periods.

Scheduling can also be useful for households with rooftop solar that want normal heat-pump operation to occur more often during daylight generation periods.

SOLAR PV

Can the Emerald 270L Heat Pump Use Solar Power?

The system can be scheduled to operate during solar-production hours, allowing the heat pump to use household electricity while rooftop PV is generating where the property's energy balance allows.

Emerald also offers Solar Soaker, a separate Emerald App feature that can respond automatically to measured surplus solar.

Built-in Wi-Fi does not by itself detect surplus solar. Emerald states that Solar Soaker requires an Emerald All-In-One heat pump, Emerald App, Electricity Advisor, LiveLink and compatible household solar setup.
QUIET OPERATION

How Loud Is the Emerald 270L E-Heater?

Emerald lists the 270L All-In-One Pro at 49 dB(A) at 1 metre in Standard heat-pump mode under its specified sound-test conditions.

Silent mode reduces the manufacturer-listed sound level to 45 dB(A) at 1 metre.

Actual perceived noise depends on placement, nearby walls, fences, corners, hard surfaces and the distance between the heat pump and neighbouring living or sleeping areas.

*Emerald's specification table records 11.3A under its stated Booster-mode laboratory test. For actual electrical installation, Emerald separately states that element-equipped models can reach 15A and require a minimum 16A circuit breaker.

CURRENT DIMENSIONS

How Big Is the Emerald 270L E-Heater?

Emerald's current installation manual lists the 270L Pro at approximately 600mm wide x 600mm deep x 1884mm high.

The unit weighs approximately 132kg before filling with water, so access and the supporting base need to be considered before delivery.

Check current installation dimensions rather than older brochures. Earlier Emerald literature listed the 270L height at 1826mm. The current installation manual lists 1884mm and should be used when checking site clearance.
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

What Electrical Supply Does the 270L E-Heater Require?

The EE-HWS-A1-270E has different electrical requirements from Emerald's equivalent non-element model because it includes the 1.6kW backup heater.

Emerald's current installation manual states that element-equipped models can reach 15A maximum operating current and the power supply must have a minimum 16A circuit breaker.

The electrical supply requires effective earthing and a compliant disconnection method in the fixed wiring.

The 270E should not be treated as the simple plug-in non-element model. Emerald's pre-installed GPO plug guidance applies to its non-E versions. Electrical work for the 270E must meet the current installation manual and applicable wiring rules.
INSTALLATION LOCATION

Where Can the Emerald 270L E-Heater Be Installed?

Emerald states that the heat pump should ideally be installed outdoors. Indoor installations are possible only where the location meets the manufacturer's ventilation, R290 refrigerant and applicable Australian Standard requirements.

  • Level supporting surface
  • Maximum base angle of approximately 2°
  • Surface capable of supporting the filled unit
  • Recommended minimum 300mm vertical service space
  • Unrestricted fan intake and exhaust airflow
  • Suitable maintenance access
  • Suitable pipe and electrical access
  • Condensate drainage
  • Safe separation from ignition sources
  • Protection from corrosive environments

For the 270L unit, Emerald's current R290 installation requirements specify a standard indoor area of at least 47m².

Emerald also provides separate operational ventilation guidance for enclosed spaces. Where indoor air volume is below the manufacturer's recommended level, suitable cross ventilation or mechanical ventilation may be required.

CONDENSATE DRAINAGE

Does the Emerald 270L Heat Pump Need a Drain?

Yes. Condensation is produced when the heat pump extracts energy from the surrounding air.

Emerald provides a pre-installed condensate drain connection and requires this water to be routed to the nearest suitable stormwater drain.

The condensate line needs continuous downward fall and should remain free of kinks so water can drain by gravity.

The condensate drain must remain separate from the TPR valve discharge arrangement.

PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

Water Pressure, Tempering Valve & TPR Requirements

Emerald's current installation manual specifies a permitted filling-water pressure range of approximately 200–650 kPa.

If mains pressure exceeds 600 kPa, Emerald requires a 500 kPa pressure-limiting valve.

The system is supplied with an 850 kPa TPR valve. Its discharge must remain open to atmosphere and be installed in accordance with the manufacturer instructions and applicable plumbing requirements.

Because the unit stores water above 50°C, Emerald also requires a compliant tempering valve to control the hot-water delivery temperature.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

What Is Required to Install the Emerald 270L E-Heater?

  • Licensed plumber installation
  • Appropriately qualified electrical work
  • Minimum 16A circuit breaker for the E model
  • Suitable fixed electrical disconnection
  • Correct cold and hot water connections
  • Tempering valve
  • Non-return or isolation valve
  • Pressure limiting where required
  • 850 kPa TPR valve installation
  • Suitable supporting base
  • Airflow and service clearances
  • Condensate drainage
  • TPR discharge drainage
  • Suitable access for the 132kg dry unit
Professional installation is required. Emerald states that its heat pumps must be installed by a licensed plumber, with electrical connections handled by qualified and trained personnel.
TRANSPORT & ACCESS

What Should Be Checked Before Delivery?

The 270L Pro weighs approximately 132kg unpacked and 141kg packaged.

Emerald states that the system must be transported in an almost upright position and must not be tilted beyond 30 degrees.

The manufacturer also requires two-person handling of the packaged system.

Before ordering, check side access, gates, stairs, retaining walls, overhead restrictions and whether the proposed installation area can be safely reached with a large upright appliance.

The E-Heater model requires a suitable electrical supply with a minimum 16A circuit breaker, along with compliant plumbing, valves, tempering, airflow, condensate drainage, service access and a supporting base suitable for the filled system.

Choose supply only if you already have appropriately licensed installation trades arranged, or check available Brisbane and Gold Coast supply-and-install options where applicable.

Tempering valve information:
Where a hot water system is capable of delivering water above 50°C, a compliant tempering valve must be installed to control the temperature delivered to personal hygiene fixtures such as showers, baths, basins, and bathroom outlets. This helps reduce the risk of scalding and assists with meeting plumbing compliance requirements.

A tempering valve blends hot and cold water to deliver a safer controlled outlet temperature to required fixtures. The hot water unit itself may store water at a higher temperature, but the water delivered to personal hygiene outlets must be controlled where required by plumbing regulations.

If your property already has a suitable, compliant tempering valve installed, your licensed plumber can assess whether it is appropriate for use with the new hot water system. Existing valves may not always be suitable due to age, condition, compliance requirements, valve type, location, or system compatibility.

If a compliant tempering valve is not already installed, or if the existing valve is unsuitable, one must be supplied and installed by a licensed plumber as part of the hot water installation.

Tempering valves are not automatically included with every supply-only hot water unit unless specifically selected, listed as included, or purchased as part of a suitable valve kit. If a tempering valve is required, please purchase the appropriate valve kit with your order or arrange for your licensed installer to supply and install the correct tempering valve on site.

It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the installation is completed by appropriately licensed trades and that all required valves, fittings, electrical work, plumbing work, and compliance requirements are allowed for as part of the installation.

Fast Delivery and Install-Aligned Shipping

Installed Today makes delivery simple, whether you are ordering supply-only or choosing an optional install package.

For supply-only orders, you can select from available delivery options at checkout. For eligible orders with installation selected, shipping is included and coordinated to align with your selected installation period where possible.

Delivery Options

Same Day Delivery

Same day delivery may be available for selected hot water systems in Brisbane and Gold Coast metro areas when ordered before 7:00am.

Availability depends on stock, courier capacity, delivery location, product type and safe transport conditions.

Express Delivery

Express delivery is available on selected products and locations, with an estimated delivery timeframe of 1–4 business days.

Standard Delivery

Standard delivery is available on selected products, with an estimated delivery timeframe of 2–8 business days.

Free Shipping with Installation

When you select an eligible installation package, delivery is included as part of the supplied and installed order.

Your product delivery will be organised to align with your selected installation period where possible, helping avoid separate courier timing, storage issues or delays between delivery and installation.

Fast Metro Delivery

Most hot water orders in metro areas are delivered quickly, with many arriving within 1 business day depending on stock, location, order time and courier availability.

Weather and Transport Delays

Hot water systems are large, heavy products and cannot always be transported safely during rain or unsafe handling conditions.

Delivery timeframes may be affected if wet weather impacts loading, unloading, transport access or safe delivery conditions.

Express Delivery Refund

If your express delivery order takes longer than the estimated 1–4 business day express timeframe, your order will move to the standard 2–8 business day delivery timeframe and your express shipping charge will be refunded automatically.

Order Tracking

We will send your delivery details once your order has been dispatched or scheduled.

For supplied and installed orders, delivery timing may be coordinated around your selected installation period rather than sent as a separate courier-only delivery.
