2.1 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS
The hot water heat pump is one of the most economical systems to heat the water for family domestic uses or for
small business activities. Using free renewable energy from the air, the unit is highly efficient with low running costs.
Its efficiency can be up to 3~4 times more than conventional gas boilers or electrical heaters.
2.1.1 Flexibility and benefits of Shimanto installation
Waste heat recovery: the unit can be installed near the kitchen, in the
boiler-room or the garage, basically in every room which has a large number
of waste-heat so that it has the higher energy efficiency even with very low
outside temperatures during the winter.
Hot water and dehumidification: the unit can be placed in the laundry
room or clothing room. When it produces hot water it lowers the temperature
and dehumidifies the room as well.
Storage room cooling: the unit can be placed in the storage room as the low temperature helps to keep the food
fresh.
Hot water and fresh air ventilation: the unit can be placed in the garage, gym, basement etc. When it produces hot
water, it makes cold the room and then provides fresh air.
Ecological and economical heating: the unit is one of the most efficient and economical alternatives to both fossil
fuel boilers and heating systems. By making use of the renewable source in the air, it consumes much less energy.
Multiple functions: the special design of the air inlet and outlet makes the unit suitable for various ways of connections.
With different ways of installation, the unit can work as just a heat pump but also as a fresh air blower, a dehumidifier,
or an energy recovery device.
The function for which the unit has been designed is only that of heat pump for DHW production.
Any other side effect (ambient cooling, dehumidification, waste heat recovery) should be
considered as a perk, on which you can not have however precise control. The performance
data will therefore be provided only with respect to the function of water heating.
2.1.2 Compact design
The unit is designed in particular for supplying hot water for domestic use or for small commercial activities. The highly
compact structure and elegant design of the appliance are studied in order to make it easy and simple for internal
installation.
Vibration damper supports for floor installation are
available accessories .
