An air/Water Heat Pump makes it much cheaper to heat your home and hot water. You can reduce your heating costs by up to 70% although the exact figure depends on several factors such as where you live, the size of your house and whether or not you use the system for cooling too.
The Initial investment is relatively low since an air/water heat pump, unlike a ground source heat pump, does not require any ground drilling.
The efficiency of HYUNDAI’s Heat pumps positively impacts the speed with which you recover your investment. with energy prices continually rising, you’re unlikely to regret your decision. In fact, you’ll start enjoying savings from the first month.
Another very good reason for choosing a HYUNDAI air/water heat pump is that it has a very low environmental impact. In fact, installing a HYUNDAI air/water heat pump can cut you home’s Co2 emissions in half. This is mainly because there is no combustion process involved. The heat pump merely upgrades naturally occurring energy from the air outside to heat your home and hot water.
The leads to much lower Co2 emissions than any traiditional fossil fuel-based heating system and explains why HYUNDAI air/water heat pump are classified as a renewable energy source.
Wherever you live, you can install an air/water heat pump and enjoy efficient, safe, problem-free heating and domestic hot water at a fraction of the alternative cost and a fraction of the environmental impact.
to put it simply, they’re three times more efficient! With Conventional oil and gas boilers, 1kWh of input energy provides less than 1kWh of output energy. using a HYUNDAI air/water heat pump every 1kWh of input electrical energy is converted into an average of 3kWh of heating energy. There is no escaping the obvious conclusion - heat pump is the absolute best way to get low cost heating and hot water.
If heat pumps were installed in the on million or so new houses built annually in Europe, we would cut Co2 emission by over 3,600,000 tonnes per year. That’s the equivalent of taking about a million cars off the road!
Heat pump technology is actually based on a very simple, well-known principle. it works in a similar way to any domestic refrigerator, using a vapour compression cycle.
The main components in the heat pump are the compressor, the expansion valve and two heat exchangers (an evaporator and a condenser).
A fan draws the outdoor air into the heat pump where it meets the evaporator. When the outdoor air hits the evaporator the refrigerant will turn into gas.
Then, using a compressor, the gas reaches a high enough temperature to be transferred in the condenser to the house’s heating system. At the same time the refrigerant reverts to liquid from, ready to turn into gas once more and to collect new heat.
The electrical energy to drive this process compared to the heating energy that is given to the house has a seasonal factor of about 3. This means that if you use 15,000 kWh for heating and domestic hot water after installation you only need about 5000 kWh. The exact saving depends on the climate and whether you have a low, medium or high temperature heating system. Let us make a calculation based on your house and needs.
