Are you looking for a high-energy efficient air source heat pump for cold climates? If yes, then you should choose no other than Arctic Heat Pump. It’s ideal for both hydronic heating and cooling purposes. This system is perfectly designed to integrate with a solar thermal heating system quickly. It can improve the system’s overall efficiency and operational costs by 20%. A solar thermal system is perfectly combined with an air source heat pump to add an extra 47,000 BTU per day on an average per every solar collector. However, the Northern Lights solar thermal system features with SunRain solar evacuated tube collectors. They can be able to deliver hot water to the system amidst cold North American winter days. The collectors are engineered with top technology in North America and come with a 10-year warranty. Their efficiency allows the system to absorb and deliver around 80% of the solar energy.
How does Arctic Heat Pump work? • SunRain solar vacuum tubes use heat pipe technology that helps in transferring solar energy to the heat bulb. The heat bulb can be able to attain temperatures of 300C. Every solar collector comes with 20 or 30 bulbs, which are inserted into an insulated copper header, a heat exchanger. • The heat pipes help in transferring heat energy to the copper header and then to the special glycol heating fluid. Every header has the capacity of carrying 2.2 liters or 0.6 gallons of the heating fluid. A temperature sensor is inserted into the header. Another temperature sensor is present at the bottom of the heat pump buffer tank. A differential controller with a heat pump helps in determining both temperatures.

When the heating fluid in the top of the solar collector goes above the water temperature in the solar tank, the heat pump starts to work, and the energy transfer starts. The heating fluid circulates throughout the large heat exchanger present on the bottom of the tank. After that, the energy is transferred to the storage tank which will be delivered to the remaining part of the home heating system. An air-source heat pump is a perfect combination of integrating with a solar system as both systems contain the same glycol heating fluid. Moreover, the hydronic heat pump and solar thermal units use the same principle of energy storage as a thermal mass i.e. buffer tank unlike other air to air heat pumps. If you are looking for a system to reduce energy costs, you should consider combining an air source heat pump with a solar thermal system. It will increase the performance and minimize the operational costs to a greater extent.
