Mitsubishi Electric Ecodan
Many have heard of ground source heat pumps and the high efficiency levels they can offer but few have realised that air source heat pumps can also offer significantly higher levels of efficiency when compared to traditional methods of heating our homes and offices.
Air source heat pumps are much easier to install than ground source so they are more suitable for a wide variety of properties from flats , detached houses and offices.
The Ecodan harvests renewable, low grade energy from the outdoor air and upgrades this into useful heat to supply a home with hot water and heating. For every 1kW of electricity used by the Ecodan, you will get at least 3kW of heating energy.
It can work efficiently all year round even if the outdoor temperature should drop to -25ºC .
The Ecodan range of air source heat pump systems have been developed by Mitsubishi Electric specifically for the UK and Irish climate and bring advanced, inverter-driven technology refined in the commercial heating sector to your home.
Ecodan air source heat pumps provide hot water to either traditional radiators or under floor heating systems.
Traditionally heat pumps have been seen as only suitable for under floor heating, however with the advanced control system of Ecodan and its ability to provide optimum variable flow temperature control, radiators can now be easily provided with the hot water they need and prove to be a very efficient option.
Reduced Energy Consumption
Energy savings of over 30% are achieved by using a heat pump with a variable flow temperature as opposed to a fixed flow temperature. When installing a heat pump with a fixed flow temperature of 55ºC, annual running costs for a three bedroom house are comparable to a traditional gas boiler. If variable flow temperature with radiators are used, the running cost savings are over 20% and even greater for under floor heating systems.
