16Kw-Heat Pump

Legom’s 16Kw Heat Pump

16kW heat pump is one of the must-have tools in our home. It deals with a very crucial thing in our lives, comfort. It is the device that creates comfort by adjusting the temperature surrounding it. How can it set the temperature to make a comfort zone in a house? Take a look at the next explanation.

How It Works?

How a 16kW heat pump works? As its name suggests, a heat pump transfers heat from one place to another. It doesn’t generate new heat like other devices. The “16kW” refers to its output, measured in kilowatts. However, it’s important to note that the maximum output is rarely reached. Under normal conditions, with proper sizing between the building and the device, the heat pump will operate at an optimal level. In extreme weather conditions or if the building’s size has been increased without adjusting the kilowatt rating, it may work harder to reach its maximum output.

Temperature-regulating equipment, like heat pumps, comes in various types to meet different needs. Every single building or individual (the owner) has its requirements. If it’s not the technical thing like the size or electricity, it could be the individual demand. Here are some available types.

Three-Phase Heat Pump

The device with a phase power supply is usually a large one. The smaller ones recently used the single phase. The single phase empowers the device with a maximum of 35kW. Although it is common now (the small uses a single phase, the larger uses three-phase), the future expectation is that devices of all sizes can use the three-phase power supply.

High-Temperature Heat Pump

The common temperature pumps could reach 55°C maximum. Meanwhile, devices with high temperatures can achieve more than that. It could be 65°C. It doesn’t count to be overheated, the tool does operate at high temperature.

16kW Heat Pump: Ideal for Medium-Sized Homes

It is an effective device for a building with 4 rooms. But if the building has good insulation, it could be effective for 5 bedrooms.

Benefits of a 16kW Heat Pump

A 16kW heat pump offers several advantages over other heating systems:

  • Quieter Operation: Compared to other heating systems, heat pumps operate more quietly, creating a peaceful and comfortable home environment.
  • Dual Functionality: This single device can both cool and heat your home, reducing the need for multiple appliances, lowering your electricity bills, and minimizing maintenance costs.
  • Low Emissions: Heat pumps are known for producing fewer emissions, contributing to cleaner air. Given the increasing pollution levels worldwide, every individual can make a positive impact by choosing eco-friendly products.
  • Cost Efficiency: Studies show that heat pumps have a lower annual operating cost compared to other heating systems. They also require less frequent maintenance, although regular servicing is still necessary.
  • Environmentally Friendly: Heat pumps don’t rely on fossil fuels. Instead, they use electricity and refrigerants, making them more environmentally friendly.

When Should a 16kW Heat Pump Be Repaired?

Like any electronic device, heat pumps may experience issues over time. Here are some signs that your heat pump may need repair:

  • Higher Electricity Bills: If your electricity bill spikes during normal weather conditions, it could indicate that the heat pump is overworking due to a malfunction.
  • Inconsistent Temperatures: If different rooms in your home have noticeably different temperatures, it could be a sign of a faulty compressor or thermostat.
  • Unusual Noise: Heat pumps typically operate quietly. If you notice loud or strange noises, it’s time to call an expert.

Explore Legom’s 16kW Heat Pump

Legom’s heat pumps are designed to enhance energy efficiency and performance. Key features include the use of R32 refrigerant, which has a lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) than conventional refrigerants, and a high-efficiency full DC inverter compressor from Panasonic, allowing seamless capacity adjustments from 20% to 120%. The system also operates stably at 35°C, thanks to the R32 refrigerant.
