## EcoHeat DHW Heat Pump Cylinder

**The EcoHeat DHW Heat Pump Cylinder efficiently provides all the domestic hot water (DHW) requirement for a typical dwelling.**

Sleak in its design the EcoHeat can fit seamlessly into a standard sized kitchen unit if required, potentially freeing up additional storage room in the airing cupboard. The supply air is fed to the heat pump cylinder via insulated ducting. The ECoHeat range comes in various volumes to suit any requirement. (180L & 220L Standard).

Due to the high efficiencies, the cylinder reduces the dwelling emissions in SAP/DEAP making it possible to achieve compliance using electric space heating.

### Why this technology?

The EcoHeat complies with the new Part L of the building regulations. The carbon emissions factor for electricity has been reduced by 74% in comparison to previous levels. It now stands at 0.136kgCO2/kWh. This is the single biggest driver for heat pumps in new build dwellings.

As can be seen in the carousel above, the future homes standards due to take effect in 2025 requires a new dwelling to have 75% less carbon emissions than that the notional dwelling. The EcoHeat can play an importantg part in achieving this. A decentralised solution like the Modulair has no requirement for a heat distribution network running throughout the development. This, in addition to the capital benefit, has a significantly positive impact on the overheating risk analysis of the building as can be determined by following the CIBSE TM59 methodology.

The EcoHeat is a suitable technology to achieve compliance with NZEB in new build apartment developments. The system will achieve these regulations with the addition of photovolvaic panels (PV) which is a key requirement for EU Taxonomy legislation, a European wide “Green” classification of buildings. This is critically important for companies to avail of low interest rate “Green” funding or additionally, to purchase, forward purchase or forward fund developments.

Separately to this the EcoHeat has a significant impact on the buildings performance in the commonly used Home Performance Index (HPI). A decentralised solution like the EcoHeat has no requirement for a heat distribution network running throughout the development. This, in addition to the capital benefit, has a significantly positive impact on the overheating risk analysis of the building as can be determined by following the CIBSE TM59 methodology.

**The building sector represents 39% of Europe’s overall carbon emissions, 28% from operational emissions energy needed to heat, cool and power them, and the remaining 11% are from materials and construction.** 

To reduce overall emissions, the sector must improve building energy performance, decrease building materials’ carbon footprint, multiply policy commitments alongside action and increase investment in energy efficiency. From a building services perspective there are some key metrics needed to comply with this, covered by local legislation. The Ecoheat range of DHW heat pumps increases energy efficiency, reducing both operational & embodied carbon levels.

## Unit Location Considerations

Typically the EcoHeat will be located in a store room or within a standard utility or kitchen unit. All connections are taken off the front side for ease of access and maintenance. Like with all DHW heat pump cylinders to minimise pressure drop and increase efficiencies the unit should minimise ducting runs when feasible. Maintenance must be considered so all servicible G3 components are easily accessed.

## Ducting Design Considerations

A good ducting design should look to minimise system pressure drops. One way excessive pressure drops can happen is if ducting sizes are too small. We recommend using 220x90mm on main runs.

Another way excessive pressure drops can happen is if the external vents are not adequately sized.

These must be a double airbrick or a vent of equal free area.
