2 General facts about the heat pump
2.1 What is a heat pump
A heat pump is a device which uses renewable energy sources (air, earth and water) and enables
us economical and ecologically friendly heating and cooling of the building as well as heating DHW.
Whether it is intended for internal or external installation depends on the device itself. Heat pump
operation:
HEAT SOURCE HEAT PUMP HEATING SYSTEM
The device takes heat from the environment or source (groundwater, earth, air) and transfers it to
the water in the heating system. This is achieved with the process of evaporating the coolant in the
evaporator which is a heat exchanger especially designed for this task. This coolant is compressed
in the compressor in the next circuit to a higher pressure which makes the temperature of the
coolant rise to a temperature higher than the temperature of the heated water. This coolant then
condenses in the water-cooled condenser where the heat taken from ground water/earth/air and
electrical energy needed for the operation of the compressor are transmitted to the heating water.
The heating water can be heated up to 65 degrees Celsius and more through this process
(depending on the operating conditions of the device); this makes the devices suitable for
renovating older heating systems.
