Abstract: The disclosed technology includes an evaporator having a plurality of sidewalls arranged to define an internal cavity and a top plate covering the internal cavity. At least one of the sidewalls can include a plurality of refrigerant channels such that at least one of the sidewalls can function as a heat exchanger. Each of the refrigerant channels can be attached to a refrigerant inlet and a refrigerant outlet at an angle, such that each refrigerant channel is angled. The angled refrigerant channels can facilitate directing ambient air across the refrigerant channels and fins and to the internal cavity. The angled refrigerant channels can further provide a flow path for accumulated moisture and/or condensate on the exterior surfaces of the refrigerant channels and/or fins to shed, thereby minimizing the potential for freezing.

Abstract: Air recirculation systems for heat pumps are disclosed. The air recirculation systems include a heat pump subsystem and a recirculation subsystem. The recirculation subsystem can include one or more arms that direct cool, dehumidified air flowing from the heat pump subsystems back to air inlets. The recirculation subsystems can transition from open to closed configurations either manually or via motors. The air recirculation systems can include a controller that outputs a control signal to the motors to open or close the recirculation subsystems. The control signals can be based on temperature data, current data, and the like.

Abstract: A water heater and a cover assembly for the water heater is provided. The water heater includes a mixing valve disposed in fluid communication with each of a hot water conduit and a cold water pipe, to regulate temperature of hot water received from the hot water conduit. The cold water pipe branches from a cold water conduit and extends along a longitudinal axis of the tank to connect with the mixing valve. The cover assembly is mounted on a tank of the water heater. The cover assembly includes a first cover to conceal the cold water pipe, and a second cover to conceal the mixing valve and the hot water conduit extending between the tank and the mixing valve. The second cover is removably coupled to the first cover via one or more coupling elements.

Abstract: A water heating system having a tank and one or more heat sources for heating water is provided. The water heating system includes a water outlet for allowing egress of water from the tank and a dip tube for allowing ingress of water into the tank. The dip tube includes a first end for coupling with a water source and a second end disposed proximate a base of the tank for discharging water into the tank through an array of holes. Each of the holes is defined in a side wall of the dip tube and laterally discharges water with respect to a longitudinal axis of the second end of the dip tube.
