Increasing the value of household
appliances by adding a heat pump system
The competition in the household appliances industry is strong. Manufacturers
are continuously trying to develop, produce and sell product functions and
features with good profit. To continually develop new features that the customer
chain is willing to pay for is a key factor for a manufacturer to survive.
To introduce a new feature the manufacturer must be sure that the customer
chain is willing to pay for it from one to five years in the future. In this study
has a heat pump system been added as a new feature to the tumble dryer and the
dishwasher. The willingness from the customer chain to pay extra for this feature
is because of the decreases electricity usage by 64% for the tumble dryer and 37%
for the dishwasher. However, the added heat pump system is increasing the price
for the machine.
The first heat pump tumble dryer was introduced on the market in 2000 and is
currently one of the state-of-the-art variants. This success was mainly because of
the money saved from the lower electricity usage. The first heat pump dishwasher
was introduced on the market in 2014, but only time will tell if the heat pump
variant will dominate in the future.
