Ideal Heating Commercial has launched its next generation ECOMOD heat pumps, with natural refrigerant. The first to be released this year is the ECOMOD 290HT, with ECOMOD CO2 to follow.
The ECOMOD 290HT is a monobloc air source heat pump designed to achieve high temperatures up to 75°C, whilst benefitting from an ultra-low global warming potential (GWP) of just three as a result of the use of R290 natural refrigerant.
Available in three chassis sizes and five outputs from 15kW through to 50kW, ECOMOD 290HT has been designed for use in larger commercial buildings and can be used in cascade to achieve higher outputs. This latest generation of heat pumps can also be installed alongside other Ideal Heating commercial solutions, such as the EVOMAX 2 and the IMAX XTRA 2 commercial condensing boilers, to build a low carbon hybrid heating system.
With its ability to achieve high temperatures up to 75°C, ECOMOD 290HT is suited for Domestic Hot Water (DHW) applications and district heating systems. The company says that by using the unit there is potentially no need to upgrade radiators making it is a practical, cost-effective solution for retrofit installations.
ECOMOD 290HT comes with a co-efficient of performance (CoP) rating of up to 4.94. The heat pumps also include an inverter-controlled compressor to accurately match the heat demand based on the specific requirements, further enhancing the efficiency of a building.
Chris Caton, Product Director – Commercial, at Ideal Heating, commented: “We have led the way in commercial heating by ensuring our heating products are at the forefront of technology, quality and design by delivering both high efficiency and low running costs. This latest, innovative addition to our ECOMOD heat pump range, featuring natural refrigerants with ultra-low GWP, will ensure our customers have the best and most advanced solutions for heating and hot water, while helping businesses in the UK on their journey to Net Zero.”
All ECOMOD 290HT heat pumps come with a five-year warranty when commissioned by Ideal Heating.
