I. Core Principle of Heat Pumps: Transporting Heat Instead of Generating It
Heat pumps follow the reverse Carnot cycle and work collaboratively through four core components: evaporator, compressor, condenser and expansion valve, completing the closed-loop cycle of heat absorption – compression and temperature rise – heat release – pressure reduction and cooling.
- Evaporator: Absorbs low-grade heat energy from air, water or soil to vaporize the refrigerant.
- Compressor: Consumes a small amount of electricity to compress low-temperature refrigerant into high-temperature and high-pressure gas.
- Condenser: High-temperature refrigerant releases heat to heat domestic water or indoor heating medium.
- Expansion valve: Reduces the pressure and temperature of refrigerant, returning it to the evaporator to absorb heat again.
This heat transport mode gives heat pumps a COP of 3–5, meaning 1 unit of electricity can transport 3–5 units of environmental heat energy, far superior to the energy conversion efficiency of electric water heaters and gas boilers.
II. All-in-One Household Heat Pump Water Heater: An Ideal Solution for Home Use
1. Large Capacity & Constant Temperature for the Whole Family
The 200L all-in-one water tank design supports simultaneous hot water use in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry areas and other points with stable temperature and no sudden cold or hot water. It is suitable for large families, villas and self-built houses, eliminating the frequent heating shortage of small-capacity water heaters.
2. High Temperature & High Efficiency, Stable Operation in Low Temperatures
The new generation model can deliver 70°C high-temperature water, paired with micro-channel heat exchange technology for higher efficiency and more compact size. Adopting environmentally friendly refrigerant and side air outlet structure with electric auxiliary heating compensation, it operates stably in low-temperature environments, solving the problems of performance attenuation and frost in traditional heat pumps in winter, ensuring reliable all-weather operation.
3. Safe & Eco-Friendly with No Hidden Dangers
Complete water-electricity separation eliminates the risk of electric leakage.
No open flame or exhaust emissions prevents carbon monoxide poisoning.
Low GWP environmentally friendly refrigerant meets low-carbon requirements for safer use.
