The paper presents selected technical and economic aspects related to the use of air heat pumps for the preparation of domestic hot water DHW. The research shows that heating the water in the 130 dm3 storage tank with the A21/W30-50 profile lasted an average of 130 minutes, and the heat pump consumed about 2.2 kWh of energy per one heating cycle. Heating water in a 130 dm3 storage tank from 25°C to 40°C lasted an average of 60 minutes, while heating water for another 5°C took 30 minutes. The operation of the heat pump in the higher temperature of the water in the storage tank is less effective, making the heating of water in the tank above 50°C is ineffective.
