Heat pumps become less efficient (lower coefficient of performance) as the source temperature decreases.

The efficiency of an standard electric hot water is .88 or 88%, not .088 (8.8%). That is a HUGE error you really should correct.

Of course, during the winter the energy is borrowed from the house heating system so at that time it is NOT more efficient at all.

Accuracy is a nice thing.
