If the Rossi device were a heat pump, part of it would be extremely cold, and covered with frost and ice. That is not the case. Actually, this is physically impossible; there is no fluid or other large thermal mass big enough to cool down as much as the water going through the device heats up. Also, if this were a heat pump, it would not be "slightly improved." It would be by far the best ever invented, and it would be worth billions of dollars for that reason alone. No cold fusion device has ever produced a cold area. None of them is a heat pump. - Jed
