+
The electric heat-pump water heater class is exposed as a high-level `WaterHeaterEntity` that aggregates operation status (EPC 0x80), operation mode (EPC 0xB0) and target temperature (EPC 0xB3) into a single entity.

-**Operations**: `auto` (automatic water heating), `manual` (manual water heating), `manual_off` (manual heating stopped / away), `off`

-**Target temperature**: setpoint via EPC 0xB3 (range derived from the device's MRA definition, 1 °C step)
53

-**Current temperature**: measured water temperature (EPC 0xC1) — also exposed as a standalone sensor, mirroring the climate platform's room-temperature convention
