Mitsuibishi Ecodan Air Source Heat Pumps

Ecofirst offers a new range air source heat pumps from Mitsubishi Electric, a world leader in heating and cooling technology. Using heat pump technology has been used around the world for decades and drawing on their extensive experience with air conditioning, Mitsubishi Electric has developed Ecodan - one of the most advanced, efficient heating systems available today.

 

By simply using a Mitsubishi Electric Ecodan heat pump to provide domestic space heating and hot water, it is possible to reduce both a home’s running cots and CO2 emissions.
With conventional boilers, 1kW of input energy provides less than 1kW of output energy or heat. With Ecodan, every 1kW of input energy is converted into an average of 3.6kW of output energy or heat, making it more than three times as efficient as conventional boilers and a natural choice for low cost heating and hot water. The Co-efficient of Performance (COP) of a heat pump is the ratio of the heat delivered, divided by the power consumed. The modern heat pump technology used in Ecodan and given in this example has the seasonal COP rating of 3.6.

The chart shows Ecodan efficiency against ambient temperature using average flow temperature of 45°C. Shaded area shows typical UK heating range (2°C to 7°C) at which COPs of 3.1 to 3.7 are achievable.

Ecodan heat pumps are ideal for use in a variety of house sizes or styles and it’s carefully developed control system is designed to work perfectly to provide hot water to either traditional radiators or under floor heating systems.
