Space heating
Supplies warm water to compatible emitters such as underfloor circuits, fan coils or appropriately selected radiators.
Air-to-water heat pumps
A heat-pump system shaped around the building, water circuit and climate.
An air-to-water heat pump transfers energy from outdoor air into a building's water system. Correct selection connects the unit with the real heating and cooling loads, required water temperatures, emitters, circulation and controls.
GOLD · SYSTEM GUIDE
One platform for heating, cooling and hot water.
Depending on the selected model and system design, a heat pump can supply space heating, chilled or cooled water, and domestic hot-water storage. The hydraulic circuit and controls determine how these applications operate together.
Where the system can contribute
Cooling
Selected reversible systems can supply cooled water to suitable terminal units and a correctly designed condensate strategy.
Domestic hot water
Works with a correctly sized hot-water cylinder, heat exchanger arrangement and control sequence.
Air-to-water heat pumps
GOLD heat-pump series
The current GOLD range includes two air-to-water platforms. Exact performance depends on the selected model and operating conditions.
R290 high-temperature series
Full-inverter models in 8, 12, 16 and 22 kW heating capacities, with outlet water up to 80 C.
R32 full-inverter series
Models in 8, 12.5, 16 and 22 kW heating capacities, with outlet water up to 60 C and cabinet configuration varying by capacity.
Air-to-water heat pumps
Inputs used to frame the right selection
Capacity alone is not enough. A useful project review starts from the building and the operating conditions.
Design heat load
The building's calculated demand at local winter design conditions.
Climate
Outdoor design temperatures and the seasonal conditions in the project location.
Required water temperature
The supply temperature needed by the selected emitters and domestic hot-water strategy.
Hydraulic design
Flow rates, pressure loss, buffer volume, separation and circulation requirements.
Emitters
Underfloor loops, fan coils, radiators or other water-side terminal equipment.
Controls
Zones, sensors, operating priorities and the coordination of heating, cooling and hot water.
