4.1 Operating Principle
Pleasant indoor temperatures just above 20 °C are needed to ensure living comfort. This
temperature does not differ much over most of the year, no matter what the outside temperature is.
In contrast to heating with burners, which generate temperatures of several hundred degrees as
part of the combustion process, a heat pump generates only the temperature that is needed at the
moment. The Aquarea air-to-water heat pump uses the thermal energy contained in the ambient
air to heat the building and to provide hot water. In other words, the system uses freely available
ambient heat. Power is only needed to supply the compressor, the electronics and the pumps, and
in extremely low outside temperatures, to operate the integrated electric backup heater.
