|
Inteprlast, in the context of utilizing alternative forms of energy, offers an integrated range of air-to-water heat pumps, equipped with all devices necessary for their connection to the underfloor system and capable of easily covering the needs of any house.
With an operating range at external air temperatures between -15ºC and up to +53ºC, the heat pump is perfectly reliable both for heating and cooling, even in the most extreme weather conditions.
The heat pump is an advanced device that uses the energy offered by the environment and utilizes it for heating and cooling any house.
Air-to-water heat pumps pump the energy from the external air and heat the water that runs through the circuits of the underfloor heating. Respectively, in the summer they produce cold water, which we use to cool the house.
ADVANTAGES OF PUMPS
Heat pumps have many advantages, among which the high performance coefficient (COP up to 4), namely 1KW of consumed energy produces 4KW of useful energy. This means more economical operation compared to all conventional heating systems.
The operation of the pumps is friendly to the environment, as they use R-410A cooling liquid and have zero emissions.
Furthermore, the operation of the pumps is not affected by external weather conditions throughout the year.
Other significant advantages of the heat pumps are their small size and their noise-free operation.
A heat pump fully replaces classic oil, natural gas and electric boilers. The same unit produces cooling as well, thus eliminating the need of installing air-conditioning units in the space. Each unit has the additional capacity of producing warm water for use in the plumbing system.
OPERATION OF PUMP
The pump’s fan pumps air from the environment and conveys it to the evaporator that captures its heat.
This heat is conveyed to the pump’s cooling medium which is transformed from liquid to gas.
The cooling medium, which is circulating inside a closed circuit, is pressurized in order to increase its pressure and its temperature.
After this it is conveyed to the condenser where it discharges all the heating it has stored in the water of the underfloor heating circuit.
The cooling medium is conveyed to the discharge valve and it is discharged, so it can be returned to the evaporator and the same procedure is repeated.
The cooling operation follows the reverse procedure.
