HEATING SYSTEMS

A CENTURY OLD FOUR-BEDROOM PROPERTY ON THE DUBLIN COAST IS BENEFITTING FROM THE LATEST SUSTAINABLE HEATING TECHNOLOGY - A PANASONIC AQUAREA L SERIES AIR-TO-WATER HEAT PUMP WITH WISER SMART CONTROLS… Delivering unmatched efficiency and reliability in heating

Installer Garrett Kennedy of Base Engineering was tasked with replacing the heating system in a 100-year-old, four- bedroom property on the Dublin coast. The old oil-fired system was replaced with a 9kW Panasonic Aquarea L Series system comprising an outdoor unit using R290, in anthracite grey, and an all-in-one indoor unit. Garrett said, “The Panasonic Aquarea L Series is more energy efficient than gas or oil boilers and can be easily connected to existing radiators to provide a comfortable temperature. “The product was particularly suitable for this project, replacing the old heating in this 100-year-old property. The new heating is also easily controlled through the additional room-by-room Wiser app controls, giving our customer easy-to-use control for the ultimate comfort.” Graham McCann, homeowner and Director of Diamond Air, said, “There is a lot of talk about retrofitting at the moment, to decarbonise heating, and we knew that our home was a prime setting to benefit from the Aquarea air-source heat pump. “We started the project in late November 2023 as the weather was getting colder, and we noticed straightaway a difference in the heating temperature in the house and how easy it was to achieve a very comfortable environment in every room.”

Homeowner Graham McCann gave a new lease of life to his century-old, four-bedroom property with the installation of the Panasonic Aquarea L Series.

FEATURES Panasonic Aquarea L Series units are available in capacities of 5, 7 and 9kW, boasting an A+++ energy class. The range provides outstanding efficiency with a SCOP of up to 5.06, as well as benefitting from a reduced sound level, up to 8dB(A) lower than previous models. The unit has a hydraulic connection

between the indoor and outdoor unit, providing water outlet temperatures of up to 75°C and down to -10°C. The indoor unit not only supplies efficient heating throughout the home but also houses the 185l stainless steel stank with U-Vacua™ insulation to further reduce energy losses. Both the installer and homeowner can access the controls of the heating system through the Panasonic smart cloud app, plus the installer can remotely check the performance of the unit via the Panasonic Service Cloud app. In addition, the property further benefits from the Wiser app, which connects to each thermostat in every room. Panasonic provides its Pro Partners with full support for all design, installation and commissioning and, as a Pro Partner, Base Engineering is also able to offer a seven-year warranty on the heat pump to Graham and his family.
