It delivers 81 gallons of hot water in the test's first hour. Its tank holds 53 gallons, so reheating adds 28 gallons during the first hour. In the first hour, 143 of the 481 heat pump models give more hot water. The median heat pump model gives 72 gallons in the first hour of the test.

It has 3 model numbers that are ENERGY STAR certified. For each unit of energy it uses, 4.20 units end up in the hot water (its UEF). It moves heat from the air rather than making it, so its UEF passes 1. The daily hot water use in the test, called its draw pattern, was high. Of 237 heat pump models with the same draw pattern, 9 have a higher UEF. For its type and draw pattern, the median UEF is 3.88. When it reheats water in the test, the water gains 440% of the energy it uses.

It is the basic model for APHWC502D, APHWC502L, and APHWC502M.
