The diagram above shows: The higher the temperature at the primary side of the heat pump (= heating source side, brine flow temperature), the higher the output figure. The higher the output figure, the more green energy and less electric energy is used. In other words: The higher the temperature on the primary side of the heat pump, the lower the heating costs. Additionally increased brine flow temperatures are possible by solar support. Due to a sophisticated hydraulic system the temperature level at the primary side of the heat pump can be increased, and output figures between 7 and 9 are not uncommon. These figures can even be reached on sunny winter days. Where conventional heat pump systems must be operated at temperatures around the freezing point and consume lots of electrical energy, the EcoSol heat pump runs at temperatures in a range of 10-30°C (50-86°F) straight from the roof and ensures economical operation. Surplus solar energy is guided into the ground and supports the thermal regeneration of the ground thus providing an attractive temperature level for the heat pump with overcast skies. |
