Heat pumps are not boilers… They have specific requirements for flow, water temperatures, and other design considerations. When designing a hydronic “balance-of-system” that will be paired with an air-to-water or water-to-water heat pump it’s essential to respect those details to optimize the heat pump’s performance. This webinar will show 10 specific details, explain why they are necessary, and point to what could happen if they are not followed.
Learning objectives:
– How heat emitter selection affect heat pump performance.
– Why location matters when placing the outdoor unit of an air-to-water heat pump.
– The critical issues associated with chilled water cooling.
– How to accommodate “micro-loads” without starving the heat pump for flow.
