THE HEAT IS ON

When it comes to showcasing HVAC and water innovations, few events match the scope of the international ISH trade fair. Held over five days in Frankfurt, Germany, this March, the 2023 event took the theme of ‘Solutions for a Sustainable Future’.

As one of the biggest players at the 2023 show, Stiebel Eltron presented products and system solutions in three zones: Heating modernisation with heat pump; Heat pump and ventilation in new buildings; and Decarbonisation in the real estate industry.

A team of New Zealand representatives were at the stand throughout the show and hosted a group of New Zealand plumbing and HVAC professionals.

Within the Heating modernisation zone, Stiebel Eltron showcased four standardised heat pump sets for use in new and existing buildings.

The pre-configured system solutions are suitable for around 80 percent of applications in detached and semi-detached houses and can be quickly and efficiently installed in series, thanks to recurring system concepts. “This saves the trade an immense amount of time—once during planning and design, then again during the installation itself,” said Frank Jahns, Managing Director of Stiebel Eltrons’ German sales company.

Among the company’s new releases on show were a brine-to-water heat pump and the new SNU Plus compact storage water heater.

SNU Plus has been redesigned with a modern look and is smaller and more efficient than its predecessor, making it the smallest appliance with the lowest energy consumption on the market. As part of its global launch, the SNU Plus will also be available in New Zealand later this year.
