How does the Daikin Altherma HT high-temperature heat pump work?
The Daikin Altherma outdoor unit extracts heat from the surrounding air and transfers it to the inside of the building via refrigerant pipes. During the transfer, the refrigerant is raised to a higher temperature level. The cascade system of two compressors ensures high heating water temperatures of up to 80 °C without the need for an additional electric heater. This means that there is enough heat available for radiator heating and domestic hot water.
Compact unit for heating and domestic hot water
The Daikin Atherma HT heat pump can be equipped with a 200 or 260 l domestic hot water heater.The high-performance heater heats domestic water from 10 to 50 °C in just 60 minutes. Hygienic safety is also ensured. The controller periodically disinfects by automatically raising the temperature in the heater to the required level, thereby disinfecting it. The heat pump can be placed on top of the domestic hot water heater to form a compact heating and domestic hot water unit.
Want to reduce your heating costs?
In conventional residential buildings, of which there are still a very large number in Slovenia, a large part of the costs is for space heating and sanitary water. These buildings have heating systems using fossil fuels such as fuel oil or gas. Fossil fuels are non-renewable and their reserves are diminishing, which is constantly increasing their price. Heat pumps allow you to get as much as 60 % of the energy to heat your home from the outside air. So the energy source is free and renewable! A heat pump system requires only a small amount of electricity to operate. Energy consumption and operating costs are therefore significantly lower than with conventional heat sources.
Renovation of the existing heating system with radiators
With Daikin Altherma HT, you don't need to replace radiators or pipes. This way, the cost of replacing the heating system is reduced as much as possible. In addition, you don't have to worry about annoying construction work in the house, as all the work is done in the firebox.
Installation without major construction work
Daikin Altherma captures heat from the air, which means no excavation or other construction work is needed. It is very easy to install the outdoor unit on the outside of a building or apartment. The maximum length of the connection between the indoor and outdoor unit is 50 m. You do not have to worry about the chimney or ventilation of the room. The installation of the system is further simplified as all major components are already integrated in the unit.
