What is the working principle of a hot water heat pump?

The working principle of the hot water heat pump heating in winter: the hot water heat pump takes the groundwater from the water extraction well and sends it to the hot water heat pump unit. The unit absorbs the low-grade groundwater of heat energy, and then it is sent back to the ground and the earth to heat again after being charged well. Exchange to increase heat energy, and then reuse.

The liquid refrigerant in the hot water heat pump unit absorbs the low-level heat energy of the groundwater in the evaporator and evaporates into a low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The compressor (using a fully enclosed flexible scroll compressor with reliable operation and high heating efficiency) compresses it into a high temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, and then sends it out of the condenser. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant in the condenser transfer heat to the building's circulating water (geothermal or heating radiator) through heat exchange. After dissipating the heat to the building, it condenses into a liquid state and then returns to the hot water heat pump evaporator to repeat. The process of heat absorption and heat exchange.

What are the advantages of hot water heat pumps?

(1) Easy to maintain

The range of water temperature fluctuation is much smaller than that of air. The relatively constant water temperature makes the operation of the hot water heat pump unit more stable; it adopts full computer control and has a high degree of automation. Because the hot water heat pump system is simple, the unit has few parts, and the operation is stable, the maintenance cost is low and the service life is long.

(2) Renewable energy

The hot water heat pump uses the solar energy stored in the earth's water body as the heat source and uses the low-temperature water after the natural heat dissipation of the earth's water body as the cold source, so the hot water heat pump uses clean and renewable energy.

(3) Save water and land

The hot water heat pump uses surface water as a source of cold and heat and emits or absorbs heat to it, without consuming water resources and causing no pollution to it. At the same time, the hot water heat pump saves the boiler room and other facilities, saving construction space.

What are the disadvantages of hot water heat pumps?

To protect the groundwater source from pollution, some cities prohibit the extraction and utilization; hot water heat pumps that use water from rivers and lakes are also affected by many factors such as seasonal drops in water levels. Therefore, there are many restrictions on the use conditions of hot water heat pumps.

It is the responsibility of each manufacturer to produce hot water heat pumps that meet the standards, to ensure the healthy development of the hot water heat pumps market. 

MICOE CORPORATION conducts many tests on hot water heat pumps before they leave the factory, and the quality qualification rate is guaranteed. If you are in the hot water heat pumps business, you can consider our cost-effective products.
