Heat pumps

Types of heat pumps

• An air-to-water heat pump is universal in its functionality and is used not only for heating, but also for preparing hot water and heating pool water. Such a heat pump extracts heat from the air, and then heats the heating medium (water) to the required temperature through an intermediate freon circuit. Given the mild climate in Odesa and the high cost of drilling, this type of heat pump is the best option for those who are thinking about installing such equipment in this region.м для тех, кто задумался о монтаже такого оборудования в этом регионе.
• An air-to-air heat pump for a house takes heat from the outside air and heats the air in the room directly, the temperature of which rises due to heat transfer through an intermediate freon circuit. Such a pump is often called an air conditioner, as it provides heating in the cold season and works like a conventional air conditioner in the hot season. They are most often used for seasonal heating of residential premises: private houses, apartments and offices, as well as in hotel construction.
• The ground-water heat pump uses the same principle to transfer the heat energy received from the soil to the heating medium (water). The soil is able to give off heat regardless of weather conditions, as it has a constant temperature. Groundwater pumps are most widely used in regions with moist soil, where the ambient temperature during the heating season is quite low. The disadvantage of such a system is the high price of this type of equipment and drilling work.
