AIR Heat Pumps

ustralia and in Europe. We have successfully installed hundreds of heat pumps across Australia and are now used as consultants and contractors for many eco builders, architects and local government organisations. We have a very strong, experienced team that are trained and qualified in this field. AIR Heat Pumps offer the very best professional expertise available in Australia so if you’re looking at your options for pool heating, hot water systems, efficient home or commercial heating why not call the rest then come to the best! A heat pump works by using a refrigerant to transfer heat energy from one place to another. Heat pumps have been around for decades and you will find at least one example of a heat pump in every home in Australia. Your fridge for example is an ‘air to air’ heat pump, meaning it extracts heat from the air inside your fridge and deposits that heat to the air outside the fridge, usually at the rear of the fridge which is why you will find that the back of the fridge gets warm when operating. Swimming pool & Hot Water System heat pumps are ‘air to water’ heat pumps, meaning they extract heat energy from the outside air (which is free solar heat energy produced by the sun) and transfers this heat energy to the water. All heat pumps use a refrigerant as a vehicle to extract the heat energy from one place and then deposit it elsewhere. Swimming pool & Hot Water System heat pumps have been designed as an alternative way to extract the suns solar heat energy. As they extract the heat energy from the air around us they are not dependant on direct sunlight. This means that they work day or night, all year, whatever the weather. In fact most heat pumps will still work efficiently even when the outside temperature drops as low as –8°C!
