Heat Pumps
Hot water generation at a third of element running cost
Commercial heat pump installation and repair for hotels, kitchens, gyms and residential estates. Sized on litres-per-peak-hour draw-off rather than tank volume, with element backup retained for worst-case winter mornings.
- Output band
- 3kW – 90kW cascade
- Typical saving
- 60–70% vs resistive elements
- COP design point
- Rated at Cape winter ambient, not 20°C
- Integration
- Retrofits onto existing storage tanks
Deployment scope
- 01Draw-off profiling across breakfast, shift-change and evening peaks
- 02Cascade configuration with lead/lag rotation
- 03Legionella-safe pasteurisation cycles
- 04Defrost strategy for cold, damp Tygerberg mornings
- 05Metering so the saving is provable, not promised
What Actually Goes Wrong
- —Units installed in unventilated plant rooms recycling cold air
- —No element backup, leaving guests cold on the first frost
- —Tank stratification destroyed by badly placed return legs
