A heat pump that heats and cools. A solution for year-round comfort.

When it's hot outside, well-cooled rooms provide great comfort. It's worth knowing that some heat pumps can not only heat but also cool. Reversible heat pumps offer this capability, effectively lowering room temperatures. This solution is interesting for both homeowners and installers designing year-round comfort systems.

Key Information

• A heat pump can operate in two directions: in winter, it heats the building, and in summer, it extracts heat from the interior and transfers it outside.

• Inverter technology allows the compressor to adjust to current demand, promoting stable operation and reducing energy consumption.

• The TERMET HEAT TITANIUM PRO is a monoblock with an inverter scroll compressor, designed for heating, cooling, and domestic hot water preparation.

• The device uses R290 refrigerant with a very low GWP of 3, enhancing its environmental credentials.

How does a heat pump cool a building?

The principle is simple: in heating mode, the pump extracts energy from the environment and transfers it to the building.

In cooling mode, the cycle is reversed. The heat pump actively extracts heat from the room and transports it outside. The compressor system and the refrigerant play a key role in this process, transporting energy between the source and the system.

Reversing the heat flow direction is possible thanks to the use of a reversing valve, which controls the heat flow direction. In cooling mode, the water at the heat pump outlet is cooler than at the inlet. This chilled water circulates through the system, extracting heat from the rooms, ensuring comfort.

This allows the room temperature to gradually decrease until it reaches the user's setpoint. This allows us to maintain a constant, low temperature regardless of room conditions, and a single unit can perform both heating and cooling functions, eliminating the need for a separate air conditioner.

What does inverter technology offer?

In an inverter pump, the compressor adjusts its operation to the current demand of the building. In practice, this means smoother maintenance of the set temperature, fewer sudden starts, and more efficient use of electricity. Termet Heat Titanium Pro heat pumps use an inverter scroll compressor specifically designed for heat pumps, which supports the durability and high efficiency of the device.

How to use heat pump cooling?

Users benefit from convenient operation because, instead of running a separate air conditioner, it utilizes the same system that provides heating in the winter. When the system switches to cooling mode, the pump reverses the circulation and lowers the temperature in the building. However, it is crucial that the system is prepared for this type of operation and configured correctly from the start. This is a significant design advantage: a single system can provide an optimal microclimate in the home year-round, without adding another unit just for the summer.

A modern 3-in-1 device

TERMET HEAT TITANIUM PRO is a monoblock air-source heat pump that can operate up to three heating circuits. The device is used not only for heating the building but also for cooling and, using a storage tank, for domestic hot water preparation. An additional advantage is its seasonal energy efficiency class A++ for space heating and the use of R290 refrigerant.

Eco-friendliness and cost: why is it a sensible alternative to traditional air conditioning?

The greatest advantage appears when comparing a heat pump with a system based on two separate devices: a heating source and an air conditioner. A reversible heat pump combines both functions in a single system, simplifying installation and allowing year-round comfort management from a single source. Furthermore, TERMET HEAT TITANIUM PRO uses the natural refrigerant R290 with a low GWP of 3, meaning a lower environmental impact.

An inverter heat pump with a cooling function is no longer a novelty, but a practical solution for homes and year-round comfort. It allows for heating, domestic hot water preparation, and cooling without the need for additional equipment.
