We all are aware about the importance of hot water during the chilled winter season. Quantum heat pumps are generally used to heat up water so that it can be used for varying purposes.

Let us first discuss about the working process involved in a quantum heat pump. Main technology being used in a heat pump is analogous to the one commonly used in refrigerator.

In refrigerators, heat is pumped out so as to keep its interior temperature low, contrary to this in heat pumps high temperature is pumped into the water present in reservoir in order to increase its temperature.

Electric power is used for this purpose which accumulates heat from the surrounding environment and feeds it into the pump thereby heating up the water. Refrigerant involved in this pump helps in maintaining hot inside temperature.

When operated in cold environment, these pumps require electric boost so as to maintain appropriate water temperature. These boosts are automatically turned on when water temperature drops down to a certain level.

Heat pumps can broadly be categorized as follows:

Integrated systems

As the word integrated in it suggests combination, hence under this system, both heat pump as well as hot water tank is integrated within a single system.

Split systems

Under this system, heat pump is kept in a separate place away from the hot water tank. Commonly, condenser coils are wrapped at exterior of these water tanks.

Yet another important thing that needs to be taken under consideration is the climatic condition where you live in. generally hot water system pumps are suitably placed in areas that have warm and humid climate.

They are not suitable for places that have cold and dry weather as you need to install a booster in these places which will ultimately lead to increase in your electricity bill in addition to a decreased reliability.

Installation plays a very important role in deciding efficiency of a water heater. If your heat pump has been installed by a professional, it will provide additional electricity saver benefits. On the other hand, if some error is made in installation then it would not provide efficient output as desired by you.

Many of you might now be wondering about where to search for a good installation company. Internet is full of companies providing installation services. Try to choose a company that is equipped with professionalized experts dealing in installation work. People may even chat with experts to find reliable service providers.
