Air Source Heat Pump
Air-source heat pumps use a refrigerant cycle to provide heating and, on reversible systems, cooling.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) is a device which uses a vapor compression cycle to transfer heat between outdoor air and indoor air or water. There are two type of air source heat pumps including air-to-air heat pumps and air-to-water heat pumps. As the name implies, these systems heat or cool indoor air or move energy into water. An air-source heat pump can provide efficient heating and cooling for your home, especially if you live in a warm climate. When properly installed, an air-source heat pump can deliver one-and-a-half to three times more heat energy to a home than the electrical energy it consumes. This is possible because a heat pump moves heat rather than converting it from a fuel, like in combustion heating systems.
Outdoor heat exchangers and compressors work with air or water distribution interfaces. Defrost and auxiliary arrangements vary with system design.
Low outdoor temperatures and moisture change operating conditions. Rated efficiency should be compared at relevant temperatures and the same system boundary.
What turns activity into demand
Air-source heat pumps transfer heat between outdoor air and a building system, with weather affecting capacity and efficiency.
The commercial boundary
Separate heat pumps from distribution equipment and complete building retrofits.
