Compact
Models
(Domestic)
The
1.1kW Compact Domestic Hot Water heater has its evaporator &
fan mounted together, with the rest of the heat pump, on top of
the water tank. Being fully self contained it is extremely easy
to install. The installation work can be completed by
the same trades people (plumber & electrician) as would be
required for a conventional electric water heater. The compact
arrangement means no on site refrigeration work is required.
Split
Model
(Commercial)
The
more powerful 1.7kW Split Domestic Hot Water heater has its evaporator
& fan mounted separately to the tank unit. The heat pump however
is still located on top of the tank. The larger heat pump is more
suited to commercial applications, but can be beneficial in very
large house holds.
The
split arrangement allows for the evaporator to be positioned remotely
to the tank unit. This can be a major benefit in commercial applications
where well ventilated areas for the hot water system are often
at a premium. The tank unit can be positioned within the
building and the evaporator mounted externally - up to 10 metres
from the tank unit.
On
site refrigeration work is required for this model therefore,
for installation, a refrigeration technician will be required
as well as the normal plumber & electrician. |
