Heating

Everybody knows that air conditioning systems provide cool air to keep us comfortable when it's hot. Less people realise that the same air conditioners can also give us heat when it's cold.

In fact, aircon systems are very efficient heaters, 3-5 times more efficient than fossil fuel boilers, making them an environmentally friendly alternative while reducing those ever increasing heating bills.

How does it work?

By use of an air source heat pump, the cooling cycle of the air conditioning unit is reversed. The outdoor unit absorbs heat from the outside air (heat exists in all air down to -273 °C) which is transferred through the system and is released indoors, therefore providing heating. Typically for each kilowatt of electricity used, 3-5 kilowatts of heat is generated.
