Integrated heat pumps provide cost-effective energy efficiency

With the South African heat pumps market experiencing a high-growth phase, driven by the cost of energy, energy efficiency requirements for buildings, and overall cost and performance efficiency of the technology used, water heating solutions company HydraTherm has responded to the trend of wider use of integrated heat pumps, with the company’s brand becoming the first in South Africa to introduce a South African National Standard (SANS) 151-compliant 150 ℓ integrated heat pump model. “Previously, the smallest approved models were between 175 ℓ and 200 ℓ, and the inclusion of the 150 ℓ model has seen a dramatic increase in the demand for integrated heat pumps in South Africa,” says HydraTherm MD Llewellyn Ward.
