Residential heat pumps are energy efficient systems used for heating and cooling in homes. These systems, which are more environmentally friendly and energy efficient than traditional heating systems, take energy from the external environment (from air, water or underground soil) and use it to heat or cool the interior. This process is based on heat transfer principles and works by taking advantage of temperature differences.
Residential heat pumps are becoming increasingly popular in order to reduce environmental impact and reduce energy costs. They can also be used to cool the house in the summer. Although heat pumps are more commonly used in warm weather climates, as technology improves and higher levels of efficiency are achieved, they are being used in a wider range of climates.
Residential Heat Pumps are classified as follows according to their place of use and purpose.
1-Monoblock Heat Pumps
They consist of only the outdoor unit. The water going to the heating system is produced in the outdoor unit. They are preferred in regions where the outdoor temperature is not very low, due to their ease of installation and cost advantage.
2-Split Type Heat Pumps
They consist of one outdoor unit and one hydraulic indoor unit. Hot water is produced in the indoor unit. They are used in areas where the outside temperature is very low.
