Essentially, the heat pump uses refrigerant to transfer heat to and from the living space in the summer, it acts as conditioner, and in the winter, it reverses the refrigerant flow and becomes unit.
How it works The common type of heat pump in U.S is the ducted air-source heat pump and as its name implies, it uses the surrounding air to heat and cool building.
How it works climate heat pump works in similar fashion to traditional, ducted, air-source heat pump however, it's designed to provide higher heat capacities at outdoor temperatures, said Tim Brizendine, director of management at Lennox International Inc., ation that follows..
The only difference is that rather there is furnace, said Mark Woodruff, manager of ducted equipment at Trane Technologies, ation that follows..
The evolution of the product globally and in U.S has led to development of many other types of indoor units including, ceiling cassettes, floor consoles, slim ducted, horizontal ducted, and even U.S.-type air handler, said Terry Frisenda, construction sales manager at LG Electronics U.S.A.
How it works Variable refrigerant flow technology provides energy-efficient, zone-by-zone comfort control for occupants, using refrigerant to capture and repurpose existing heat from the environment, said Tom Dowling, president of business at Mitsubishi Electric Trane HVAC US LLC, ation that follows..
How it works water-source heat pump, also called geothermal heat pump, has simple setup that functions just like air-source heat pumps to harness the temperature between two sources, and instead of air, it uses water, said Ian McIver, manager at Bosch Thermotechnology, ation that follows..
How it works Ground-source heat pump systems are similar to WSHPs, except instead of water, GSHPs rely on the temperature of the beneath the frostline to transfer heat.
The outdoor portion of the heat pump can feature technology and variable-speed fan and quiet operation, while the hydrobox contains tank, wiring hub, interface, and high-efficiency, dual-ECM pump piping module.
There are no compressors or engines, and gas is the primary fuel used to begin the thermal process, said Bert Warner, national sales and manager at Robur Corp., ation that follows..
