History of the Water
Heater: Invented by Edwin Ruud
Edwin Ruud is known
as the inventor of the Automatic Water Heater.
Because of his ability to invent and perfect,
his vision, and twenty five years of hard work;
he was able to bring a dependable and convenient
source of hot water to the homes of the world.
The first water heater was manufactured in
1889.
Mr. Ruud, a Norwegian
immigrant, was a mechanical engineer graduate
that landed in New York in 1880 and started
working for Mr. George Westinghouse in the
development of the Westinghouse Gas Engine. It
was around those years that he invented the
first automatic water heater and automatic water
distiller.
Later Mr. Ruud
partnered with James Hay, a progressive plumber
in the Pittsburg area and they proceeded to manufacture
the first water heaters. Two years later,
in 1897, Ruud Manufacturing Company was
incorporated and in 1905 Mr. Ruud left
Westinghouse to completely devote all his time
to his new company.
Today, RUUD operates
two manufacturing facilities in Arkansas and
Georgia - both employing highly trained workers
and state-of-the-art equipment. Over the years,
the product lines have expanded, changed, and
improved significantly as new design techniques
and better manufacturing technologies have
become available.
Now you can afford to heat your pool
economically...
While it’s true that a heat pump is slower to bring your pool to temperature
versus gas or propane heater, we don't see it as a race to heat the
pool! Gas and propane heaters can be expensive to operate Keep in mind that
with a gas heater, you also need to run expensive gas lines, or install an
unsightly propane storage tank. Installation of a heat pump is no harder than glueing a few PVC
pipes together. Ruud heat pumps are designed to provide years of safe, reliable service,
and will save you money over time compared to other heating methods.
Reliability...
Ruud pool heater heat pumps are the only heat pumps manufactured by a major air
conditioning company. In the unlikely event that you have a service problem,
one toll-free call will have your heater up and running again. It’s that simple.
Ruud heat pumps are truly hassle-free with a large company to rely on if you
ever need service.

powder-coated. It’s the same rugged construction used by all the major
air conditioner manufacturers.

is used in almost all heat pumps with R410A refrigerant
around the world! Millions of air conditioners and heat pumps can't be
wrong…the performance of a Copeland Scroll

digital. The Digital controls are easy to use and offer full diagnostics. The
easy-to-read, easy-to-use tried and true analog dials allow you to set your

separate Pool and Spa thermostats...standard! This feature allows you to "set it
and forget it" when it comes to customizing your settings on both bodies of

About Heat and Cool
Models
* Reversing Valves
Ruud Heat and Cool units extend your swim season
even longer! Ruud Heat and Cool units have a unique
reversing
valve which enables the heat pump to not only
take the chill out of your water,
it can also put it back in, cooling your pool
water during the hot summer
months. You can go from heat mode to
cool mode with just a flip of a switch. The Heat and Cool feature also works as a power
defrost in the Winter months to really extend
the pool season!

Kevin,
We installed the heat pump on Monday and it is working great. Today the
water is 82°. This is the biggest item we have ever purchased on the
internet and it couldn't have been easier.
Hi Marcus.
My pool is now heated! The hardest part, besides digging the trench, was
finding an electrician that didn't want thousands of dollars to wire the heater.
85 degrees and happy, despite the 60 degree temperatures in WA right now.
