BRITISH HEAT PUMP PRODUCT OF THE YEAR FOR AN INNOVATIVE HFC BASED AIR SOURCE AIR PUMP

A new generation of R-410A based air source heat pumps got the British Heat Pump Product of the Year 2016 award.

The new model incorporates a new plate heat exchanger in a domestic cylinder – instead of an internal coil – helps improve efficiency, speed up tank heat-up times, removes volume displacement from the coil and helps reduce running costs.

Hot water efficiency is expected to improve by 15% in heating up (10ºC to 55ºC) and by 20% in recharging (40ºC to 55ºC).   A 4kW unit is designed specifically for the new-build sector, where the hot water requirement is the dominant load.
