* In most of the EU countries (not in Ireland at this time) you the consumer  have the choice of buying  electricity as "green electricity" for the same price or even cheaper as "normal power"
 "Green electricity" produced by renewable energy ie. wind, water and solar power. Plenty of wind power in Ireland and more to come.

The heat-pump system consists of:

Environmentally friendly  free FCKW-cooling fluid
Special design compressor, power consumption  580W (L15/45)
Pre wired with cable and plug 1,5m
Big dimensioned gasification unit 
High rated condenser
Pressosat 
Combination filter 
Dryer & dehumidifier
Thermostatic expansion  valve
Good reasons for the combination
Instant use for solar energy
Compact Solution
Approx. 15 cent for a bath
Long life
German technology
Absolute maintenance friendly.
Can be installed nearly anywhere
Easy to install, low installation cost
Modest increase in cost compare to standard solar tanks
Completely recyclable
 

How does it work?

The combination system Heat-pump and Solar-storage tank use the existing heat in the room where the unit is installed ie. boiler room, garage or basement to heat the domestic hot water or over the ventilation system of the house whereby the used warm air is being passed through the heat-pump. 75% of the energy for heating the water is free and 25% comes from the electricity supplied to run the heat-pump.

Volume 300 litres
Solar-heat exchanger 1,3 m² bottom
Supplementary heat- heat exchanger 0,8m² top
Pre fitted anode against corrosion
High density of 50 mm FCKW-free PUR insulation
Insulating cover 10 mm
Pre fitted electric heating element as back up 1500 W

Application:

You do not need a solar system or boiler with this tank to get your domestic hot water, the heat-pump can do it all.
There are 7 models to choose from and depending on model, you can use a boiler (Oil, Gas or Solid fuel) to heat the water. The same goes without saying that if you have a solar system can be used with the tank or at a later stage could add  a solar water heating system to it. No problem.

This 2 in 1 combination  is used where warm water is needed starting with the models WP 5018 E  for the small households with 2 people, holiday homes, small workshops. 

The models WP 5030 are used for homes with up to 10 hot water outlets and cover the need for domestic hot water for up to 7people, they are also used for commercial applications ie. hairdressers, b&b, guesthouses, supermarkets, butchers and hotels with up to 10 rooms.
