Air Source Heat Pump

Air Source Heat Pump has made modern living a bit comfortable.
Since it is cheaper to install, it has gained popularity as being an affordable product of comfort.
This pump usually transfers heat energy from one place to another place.
It works in the method of the land breeze and sea breeze.
The heat moves from a cooler place to another warmer location.
Why is it called Air source heat pump? It is because, in this type of heat pump, the air outside is used as a heat source or heat sink to either heat or cool an enclosed or rather an interior space.
To store hot water for domestic use, this pump can be used.
The Technical Aspect This pump works both like the refrigerator and the compressor.
The refrigerant meets the outside air which is drawn in by a fan located on the side of this pump, through the evaporator.
The refrigerant takes in free energy from the air and evaporates in the process.
A sensor ensures that the correct amount of free energy is collected before it is led into the compressor.
The pressure of the refrigerant is increased and the temperature rises to about 100 degrees centigrade.
The warm gas passes into the condenser which emits the heat.
