The Solution With An Eye To The Future
Heat Pump Basics
Daikin Altherma is a highly flexible, energy efficient home heating system that extracts the heat from the outside air, raises this heat to a higher temperature and distributes the warmth throughout the home. The heart of the system is an air-to-water heat pump.
With the technologically advanced Daikin Altherma system, 70% of the heat generated comes from a renewable energy source − the air around us − and therefore is absolutely free of charge! The Daikin Altherma air-to-water heat pump is today's answer to current and future problems associated with conventional heating systems such as increasing primary energy costs and unacceptably high environmental impact.
High Efficiency Means Low Energy Costs
Heating system efficiency is measured using the Coefficient of Performance or COP, which is the ratio of heat produced to energy consumed. Depending on the installation, the COP for Daikin's heat pumps is approximately 3, which means they provide you with 3 times more energy than they consume.

The New Standard In Heating
- Keep Your Existing Radiators
- When replacing an existing heating system with the Daikin Altherma High Temperature, radiators do not need to be replaced! Daikin Altherma High Temperature replaces your conventional boiler and perfectly supports existing high temperature radiators with water temperatures up to 80°C if required.
- Complete Comfort For Your Family
- Daikin Altherma High Temperature meets all the heating needs for your home, even on the coldest days of the year. The heat pump extracts heat from the air, maintaining full heating capacity (water temperatures up to 80°C) at outdoor temperatures down to -7°C. Daikin Altherma High Temperature's fully integrated control system provides you with consistent comfort and optimum efficiency.
- High Performance
- Daikin Altherma High Temperature uses 100% thermodynamic energy to obtain water temperatures up to 80°C without using an additional electric heater. Daikin Altherma has amongst the highest COP's on the market, in high temperature applications.
A Renewable Energy Source
The European RES directive recognizes air as a renewable energy source. One of the goals of this directive is that by 2020, 20% of the total energy production needs to be produced with a renewable energy source. As a result, several heat pump incentives are already available to homeowners.
High Temperature Benefits
- 100% thermodynamic: water temperatures up to 80°C can be reached without an additional electric heater.
- Flexible installation possibilities.
- Daikin inverter technology guarantees a high "seasonal COP". Heating efficiency can vary depending on outdoor conditions, "seasonal COP" is the yearly average ratio of generated heat to consumed electricity. It accurately reflects the performance gains you can expect over an entire year, winter, spring, summer and autumn.
- Low operating costs and minimum maintenance.
- No fuel storage tanks, gas supply or ventilation required.

Understanding The System
- 1. Air To Water Heat Pump
-
1a. Heat Pump Outdoor Unit:
An efficient use of energy from the air. The outdoor unit extracts heat from the ambient outdoor air. This heat is transferred to the indoor unit via refrigerant piping. -
1b. Heat Pump Indoor Unit:
The heart of the Daikin Altherma system. The indoor unit receives the heat from the outdoor unit and further increases the temperature, allowing water temperatures up to 80°C for heating through radiators and for domestic hot water use. Daikin's unique cascade compressor approach to the heat pumps (one in the outdoor unit/one in the indoor unit) means optimum comfort at even the coldest outdoor temperatures, without the need for an electric back up heater. - 2. Domestic Hot Water Tank For Low Energy Consumption
-
Daikin Altherma's high water temperature is ideal for heating domestic hot water without the need for an additional electric heater. Rapid heating of domestic hot water also means smaller boilers are needed. For a family of approximately 4 people, the standard tank is the best solution. Should you require more hot water, a larger tank is also available.
- 3. User Interface
-
With Daikin Altherma's user interface, the ideal temperature can be easily, quickly and conveniently regulated. It allows for more precise measurement and can regulate your comfort even more optimally and energy efficiently.
