If you want to change your heating or air conditioning system or if you are planning to renovate your home energetically, you can consider aerothermics. Ever heard of it? If not, it may be time to find out. In what follows, SOFATH introduces us to this innovative technology that is growing and becoming more and more common in homes and buildings.
Energy from the air
Aerothermal heat pumps have been on the market for some time now. This technique has become a strong alternative to boilers that use traditional fuels such as gas.
Aerothermal heat pumps are high-efficiency air-to-air and air-to-water heat pumps. They are designed to achieve maximum performance in extreme weather conditions, both in winter and summer, by extracting energy from outside and transporting it to the home’s heating and hot water system.
Moreover, even though traditional heating systems heat materials to use the calorific value of combustion, they are never able to achieve a net efficiency of 100%. On the other hand, the aerothermal pump can achieve performances of up to 700%.
How does it work?
The aerothermal operation is very simple. It is based on a reversible heat pump. This system obtains the thermal energy from the outside air and passes it through a circuit filled with coolant. The exchanger then transfers the energy produced to the heating circuit and to the hot water in the house. And thanks to its reversibility, it is also possible to cool the premises in summer.
What are its advantages?
Taking into account what has been mentioned above, it can be said that aerothermal heating has great advantages, among which we mainly quote :
● Its capacity to cover all heating, air conditioning and hot water needs with the same device.
● The fact that it is a non-polluting form of renewable energy.
● The fact that it has a high rate of return, which results in substantial savings on electricity bills.
● The simplicity and speed of installation and installation
● The functional aspect of the CAP that requires no fuel storage and takes up little space.
● The adaptability of the aerothermal system to all types of buildings and houses.
It is therefore an interesting alternative and undoubtedly an option to seriously consider when choosing the type of heating or air conditioning system you want to install in your home. Although the initial cost in an aerothermal system is a little higher than that of a combustion boiler, it is possible to make this investment profitable in a short period of time. If you too wish to benefit from the advantages mentioned above, we invite you to contact SOFATH, a company specializing in green solutions.
