SAHP Solar-assisted Heat Pumps are renewable, cost effective water heating systems. Harnessing renewable energy to heat water efficiently.
The requirement to reduce energy bills and carbon emissions are driving the demand for alternative forms of water heating. SAHP’s range of Solar assisted Heat Pump Water Heaters meet this demand.
The SAHP product range can be best described as ‘a fridge in reverse’. Most people understand that the panel on the back of their fridge is an important factor in keeping its contents cold. Reversing this principle by using an
aluminium evaporator (panel) to absorb
heat rather than reject heat, allows us to
utilise the ambient air temperature (day and
night, all year) to change the refrigerant
liquid circulating through the panel from a
liquid state to a gaseous state. The returning refrigerant, now heated and
in a gaseous state is then compressed and
heated further.
The compressed refrigerant is then passed
through a heat exchanger where the heat is
transferred to the water, heating it up to 55OC.
The award winning SAHP combines
our innovative Solar Assisted Heat
Pump technology with a highly
insulated vented / unvented
indirect duplex stainless steel hot
water cylinder.
