•
The A or AR heat pumps can heat water up to 140°F.
Systems should be designed to operate the heat
pumps as much as possible as they are the most
efficient component of the heating system.
•
The AR heat pumps can cool water down to 37°F.
Peak electrical demands can be offset with gas fired
equipment.
•
The boilers operate when water temperatures greater
than 140°F are required (up to 240°F), or when the
energy required to heat the building go beyond the
available capacity of the heat pumps.
•
The electric chillers can be used to satisfy the base
cooling loads.
•
Smaller chillers can be purchased when the heat pumps
are available to contribute to capacity requirements.
•
Increase the efficiency of condensing boiler systems by up to 50%.
•
Satisfy small cooling loads without separate equipment dedicated to cooling.
•
Hydronic cooling reduces air duct and fan sizes in a building.
HEATING MODE
COOLING MODE
The air source heat pumps either heat or cool water, and always interact with the outside air, integrating
renewable energy.
