The council has many properties that are not on mains gas and are heated by direct electric. Direct electric heating is an expensive and inefficient way to heat homes. This prompted a trial number of ‘renewable’ technologies to find a suitable alternative to refurbish the heating systems in their existing housing stock, following which they selected the Daikin Altherma Split System heat pump supplied by Space Air.
Type of application: A 1940’s semi, 3 bed terraced home
Heating and Hot Water Options: Oil, LPG, direct electric or heat pump
System Installed: Daikin Altherma 7kW split heat pump + HB indoor + 200L storage cylinder + Daikin solar thermal system
Connecting to: Double convector radiators and towel rails
Reason for selecting Daikin Altherma / Space Air
The information supplied by Space Air on the Daikin Altherma systems, not only consisted of the manufacturers details, but also provided actual costs of running the Space Air Daikin Altherma system in a variety of different sized homes. Space Air also provides all necessary piping kits, ensuring that the Daikin Altherma system is fully optimised for the best energy efficient performance and that each system will be a replica of the next.
