Heating, Cooling, Underfloor Heating, and Hot Water Heating All In One System!

Traditionally, about half of energy consumed in a home is associated with hot water and heating. But did you know that there is an energy-efficient way to reduce costs and save electricity in your home?

If you plan on getting an all-in-one central heating system, you should consider a Hot Water Heat Pump.

The hot water heat pump was designed to meet all the heating and cooling needs in your home including hot water. In New Zealand, heat pump technology has made a fundamental impact on home heating because of its efficiency in heating hot water in homes.
​

How Does Hot Water Heat Pump Work?

Hot water heat pumps use electricity to move heat around instead of directly generating heat. Just like heat pumps, this process provides energy-efficient hot water and heating for underfloor and radiators.

With hot water heat pumps, the option of an installed hot water cylinder is what provides your home with hot water. This works with the outdoor unit to create central heating solutions to your home, hot water included. Hot water heat pump systems work without oil, flammable gas, or hazardous substances and can be two to three times more energy-efficient than traditional water heaters.

Central Heating and Hot Water Heating Combined

The hot water heat pump system provides your home with both central heating and hot water heating. It also provides underfloor heating for ideal comfort in your home.

What is Underfloor Heating?

Underfloor heating is a great way to reduce costs in your home. It has to do with evenly distributing heat in your home through a system beneath the flooring of your home. Underfloor heating is more favorable if your home has a modern open plan with higher studs and exposed ceilings. Overall, it provides comfort to your home.

What Is Radiator Heating?

This is one of the most common heat distribution systems that is an ideal solution for responsive heating that can be combined to suit each room in your home. It’s a great way to control and manage heating in your home.

When Is The Best Time To Install A Hot Water Heat Pump?

When you are building a new home or renovating your home, hot water heat pumps are ideal heating and cooling solutions to install in your home. Installing a hot water heat pump during the process is the best time because it allows them to be connected to most types of water cylinders in good condition.

For new homes, the underfloor piping can be installed during the construction phase and for existing homes (renovation) the piping can be connected to radiators installed around the house.

Daikin Altherma
This energy-efficient home heating system provides hydronic heating and cooling solutions to your home throughout the year. Unlike the conventional how water heaters, this system doesn’t keep the hot water in its tank but instead, instantly heats the water as it passes through.

Daikin’s Altherma units are compatible with selected heat-providing options in your home. All you have to do is connect one of these selected systems to the Altherma unit:

• Underfloor heating: this is best for new installations, it evenly distributes heat around your home and provides comfort. This efficiency is a result of radiated and unobtrusive heat.
• Radiators: are traditional heating solutions that are cost-effective and easy to install.
• Fan Coils: these systems are usually cased or concealed. Fan coils heat and cool your home and allow for individual room control. They are also easy to install.
