SUSTAINABLE HEAT PUMP PAIRS WITH UNDERFLOOR HEATING TO DELIVER SUPERIOR EFFICIENCY… WarmflowZenogreat fit for Georgian-era home

The ZenoRange

The Zeno range of heat pumps are available in three outputs from 6kW to 17kW, and all are designed to work off standard single-phase domestic electricity. Key features include: • Low noise, high efficiency Mitsubishi/ Panasonic Rotary Compressors • User-friendly touchscreen interface • Fully integrated, variable speed, high efficiency pump • Electronic controlled expansion valves • High Flow heat exchangers with large surface area • Flow temperatures of up to 55 ºC means the unit can heat radiators, and your domestic hot water tank similar to a common household fridge, taking the warmth from the air outside - even when it’s freezing - and increasing the temperature to provide heating and hot water for your home.

A ward-winning manufacturer Warmflow has helped to significantly boost the energy efficiency of a historic rural house, with the retrofitting of a more eco-friendly and cheaper heating system. The Warmflow Zeno air source heat pump was selected as the ideal solution to replace an existing oil boiler at the Co Armagh property – which dates back to Georgian times. The new pump provides heat for a space of around 2,000 sq ft. Installer Brian Graham, of Plumbrite, recommended this heat pump as it is one of the most efficient appliances in its class. Brian said: “The customer wanted the heat pump installed without a cylinder, so it only generates heat and not hot water. I selected the AS02 model of the Zeno heat pump to meet the homeowner’s needs. “The existing oil boiler, which was around 10 years old, was located close to an outside wall. This made it reasonably handy to fit the new heat pump on the exterior wall, and we used the existing flue hole to fit the pipes, so we didn’t need to carry out too much additional work.”

Michael McGirr, Technical Sales Manager at Warmflow, said air source heat pumps are becoming an increasingly popular choice for homeowners. “They can be easily integrated into heating systems, offer excellent energy savings and can help reduce the end user’s carbon footprint,” he added. “In this case, the homeowner wanted a more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly heating solution for her home, and she has expressed her delight at the results. She also commented that the controller was extremely easy to use, with very little training needed. “Underfloor heating had already been installed in the property, and heat pumps and underfloor heating systems pair together very well. This is because the underfloor heating requires lower flow temperatures of 35 degrees, meaning the heat pump in turn uses less electricity.” Warmflow’s range of uniquely designed air source heat pumps harness natural heat energy from the air by blowing it through a highly finned evaporator coil.
