Great Water Heater, needs info on default settings
Great hybrid Water Heater. Quiet, efficient.
Manual should (but does not) provide procedure on changing default from hybrid to full electric setting. e.g. changing default from Hybrid to Electric mode) User can only change to electric mode for max of 48 hours then unit returns to hybrid (silly in cases of installation in cold winter locations or hybrid malfunction before repair can be done). There is a procedure to do this using the control panel but you have to search the internet and do trial and error on users experiences to ultimately find the correct one.
AO Smith should be more open and provide the info. Such as Boat A/C manufacturers do such as Dometic.

Replacement Unit - Under Warranty
I purchased the 80 gallon - heat pump water heater and had it professionally installed 5/18/2021. The unit has operated very well since until approximately 1 month ago - 2 years in service. It generally provided hot water while reducing power usage for the heater by about 70%. (I monitor many of my home power circuits and track the usage and check for abnormalities.) While checking the heater's usage I noticed that the resistive heating elements were drawing power and assisting the heat pump. The heater is selected for 'Efficiency' and the resistive elements should not normally be engaged. The system was progressively utilizing more time with resistive elements. (I am a retired professional engineer with experience in heat and mass transfer). It appeared that the heat pump circuit was losing its refrigerant charge. AO Smith honored the existing warranty and a new unit was obtained and installed by a Plumbing Contractor. It has been in operation for two days at this time and the power usage and profile is consistent with a well-operating hybrid water heater. I am hoping that the last unit was an exception. In general the unit is very quiet, no vibrations and providing hot water as needed.

water remained hot after loss of power
continue to have plenty of hot water. even after losing power for over 24 hours, we could still take showers. our electric bill showed very little change once this was installed and previously we had a gas hot water heater

Works well but only in the summer
66 gallons and we can only take one shower in the winter. It gets down to about freezing here in the winter and the mode needs to be constantly switched to electric only mode to have any success getting water. Unfortunate. Switched it to electric only for the winter months.
