Air To air heat pumps are effectively air conditioning units. They not only save energy but also purify the property inside air. They are suitable for a wide range of property types and are a very efficient way of both heating and cooling their homes or property’s. The air to air heat pump system can be used as either a stand-alone heating system or it can be used as an effective way of complementing your existing traditional heating system.

This piping carries the heat generated from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit. The indoor unit can be either wall mounted, cassette, ducted or floor standing systems, which is placed in a suitable area that will maximise the warm air circulation within the property. The Indoor unit then distributes the heat throughout the required room of the the property, it does this by using a modulating fan which will adjust its speed to suit the property’s air temperature setting. Such is the effectiveness of the air circulation adjoining rooms can experience a near equal air temperature to that of the heated room. Although this is dependent on the construction type and along with a variety of other factors.
