Airflow-M Comfort Heat Pump
From Gas
to Heat Pump
in just a few days
It is often assumed that installing a heat pump requires major renovation or a new build. This is by no means necessary. The efficiency of modern heat pumps is so high that they can be installed in older buildings without difficulty. And it’s not only responsible for space heating in the Mehlstäubler family home – the heat pump also provides hot water for the entire household. The technology for this is compactly integrated into the indoor unit.
When the Heat Pump Replaces the Gas Boiler
Why is a heat pump the perfect alternative to a gas boiler? Because it requires no more space than a gas appliance and can be up and running within a very short time. The Mehlstäubler family’s home, with a living area of 150 m², was built in the 1980s, has not been thermally renovated, and is heated partly with radiators and partly with underfloor heating. Previously, a gas boiler provided both heating and hot water – now a heat pump has taken over.
The main reason for choosing a heat pump was the lack of space for a pellet store, which would have been required for a biomass boiler. In addition, the family already had a PV system installed, which now helps to cover part of the electricity demand. A particular highlight: a blackout frost protection module ensures that the new heat pump remains frost-proof even in the event of a power cut.
