Heating in one step or two steps?
To do things in one go, sounds so easy. In many cases the results of doing things in one step is equated to doing things in two steps. However, in certain situations or under certain conditions it can be advantageous, and hence preferred, to do things one after the other. A twostep approach can …Alberto Ferrandi
Polyvalent units and heat recovery is growing in colder climates
In recent years, heat recovery has become an increasingly more common and desirable functionality in units for ventilation, heating and cooling (HVAC). The general idea is to recover as much as possible of the energy that has already been “spent” for heating or cooling, and use that energy again …Alberto Ferrandi
Things to consider when choosing a heat pump for commercial buildings
Choosing the right heat pump demands proper care and consideration. The variables affecting the performance and efficiency are numerous, and striking the optimal balance between application, performance and cost can be tricky.Alberto Ferrandi
What you need to know before selecting a heat pump
Just a few years ago, chillers totally dominated the market, while the number of heat pumps sold and installed was low. Today, EU demands, new technology and focus on decreasing fossil fuel dependency has made the market for heat pumps explode. The need for getting rid of gas boilers has opened up …Alberto Ferrandi
A better way to calculate energy efficiency for polyvalent units
There are several energy efficiency indexes used in the refrigeration business. However, not all of them are applicable to all types of units – specifically, there are some problems with using existing indexes for polyvalent units. But first, let us go through some of the different indexes out …Alberto Ferrandi
Why you should consider a 4-pipe system for cooling and heating
A traditional two-pipe system for heating and cooling may not be an optimal solution for buildings with mixed usage that combines, for instance, retails, offices and hotels. Besides, the southward side of the building facing the sun might require cooling at the same time that the northward side, in …By topics
