Heat Pump Auckland: The Most Efficient Option for Commercial & Residential Buildings

A heat pump Auckland is a machine that moves heat from one location to another, usually against the direction of natural flow. This is done by compressing and expanding a special refrigerant fluid in an evaporator/condenser circuit within the machine.

 The simplest form of Panasonic inverter heat pump is the ground source heat pump (GSHP) and the air source heat pump (ASHP) and they both work on the same principle. Air and ground source types of heat pumps use a refrigerant as their working fluid, but due to the effects of greenhouse gases and ozone depletion, these types of heat pumps are currently one among the best choices for reducing carbon emissions by substituting electric power with the most efficient and cleaner energy.

A heat pump Auckland draws heat from its outside surroundings, usually from air or ground, into a building for heating purposes and dumps excess heat by releasing it to the surrounding environment like atmosphere (air source type) and earth (ground source type). The amount of power needed to run a heat pump is more than the amount of power needed to run an equivalent single-purpose device, like a compressor-based heater.

The initial costs of installing one may be large but they are worth it in the long run because they can save around fifty percent on yearly fuel bills for heating and cooling purposes. Panasonic Inverter Heat pumps are more efficient than furnaces or boilers in most climates, and they are also extremely reliable.

The main system consists of the below components:

(1) Refrigerant lines that carry the refrigerant throughout the system;

(2) A compressor that moves energy from one location to another;

(3) An evaporator that takes low-pressure liquid refrigerant from the high side to low side through a metering device called expansion valve;

(4) A condenser that takes low-pressure gas on the low side to high-pressure gas on the high side by means of compressor;

(5) An indoor fan or blower that moves air through your home.

 The outdoor unit contains the coils that absorb heat from outside air and transfer it to the refrigerant. Refrigerant is then sent through a compressor, which increases its pressure as it leaves the outdoor coil. The high-pressure fluid goes to an indoor coil, where it gives off heat as it evaporates into a gas. The now cool indoor air absorbs this hot gas and is blown across the indoor coil by a blower.

 The key to using an air source heat pump Auckland effectively is to make sure that you choose one that has an SEER rating of at least 14 or higher, which represents its cooling efficiency. This means it will cool your home for every unit of electricity consumed. To learn more about this topic visit our website.
