Europe Air Source Heat Pump Industry News

  • In November 2024, Wondrwall, a UK based company, has recently unveiled a new residential heat pump system. This air source heat pump integrates with the company's AI-driven Home Energy Management System, aiming to improve heating efficiency and reduce costs. The company claims the system can significantly lower heating bills compared to standard heat pumps. The product uses propane as a refrigerant and comes in two models. It operates with a maximum power input of 3.5 kW and has a sound power level of 60 dB(A). The system's efficiency, measured by its coefficient of performance, varies based on water temperature settings, ranging from 3.06 to 4.77.
     
  • In April 2024, Daikin Europe released its first propane-based residential heat pump. The Altherma 4 HS-S+ series, scheduled for a fall 2024 launch, will offer four models ranging from 8 to 14kW capacity. This air-to-water system boasts impressive performance, operating in temperatures as low as -28°C and providing water temperatures up to 75°C. The heat pump uses about 1.3kg of propane, with R32 and R454C as alternative refrigerant options. Daikin's initiative aligns with its goal to minimize environmental impact by improving energy efficiency and using refrigerants with reduced global warming potential.
