Heat Pumps

Air source heat pumps work under the basic principles of thermodynamics, in which they convert the air of our surroundings into thermal (Heat) energy that can be harnessed in order to supply a home with both efficient heating and hot water.

Air source heat pumps such as the Viessmann Vitocal Range is a compact, wall mounted indoor unit, complete with hydraulics and control unit and is quiet and can be installed near the living space. The lines running to the outdoor unit can be filled with water. This requires no certificate of competence (refrigerant certificate) for the installer. The high degree of pre-assembled components and coordinated accessories means the Vitocal 200-A can be installed very quickly. Advanced, smart technological features of these select ASHP’s measure the demands of the home.

When more heat or hot water is required, the output of the heat pump increases. When less output is required, the heat pump operates at a lower speed, meaning that you can always have the correct energy requirements at your disposal when needed. The heat pump can even be controlled from anywhere using the Vitotronic 200 control unit via the Vitoconnect web interface (accessory) and the free ViCare app. In addition, they can be combined with Vitovent central mechanical ventilation units.
