Daikin Altherma, the home heating solution that connects to underfloor heating, low temperature radiators and fan coil units. Daikin has more than 50 years of experience in the production of air source heat pump systems, manufacturing over a million units a year for residential & commercial applications. Our product innovations provide you with high energy efficiency solutions minimizing the impact on the environment and running costs
Less energy, pleasant warmth in the home Daikin Altherma heats up to 5 times more efficiently than a traditional heating system based on fossil fuels or electricity. By making use of the heat in the outside air, you use much less energy while still enjoying a stable and pleasant level of comfort. Daikin Altherma provides energy efficient, eco-friendlier heating.
Minimal installation cost
Daikin Altherma takes heat from the air. No digging or excavation works are required. Both the outdoor and indoor units are compact. The external unit can be located easily outside any building, including apartments. Without flames or fumes, there is no need for a chimney or constant ventilation in the room where the Daikin Altherma’s indoor unit is installed.
Flexible configurations
Daikin Altherma can be configured for use in both new and refurbishment applications, and connects to standard low temperature radiators, underfloor heating or fan coil units. If you already have a heating system, there is no need to change it all.
Entire comfort for your family
Daikin Altherma satisfies your heating requirements but it can also supply your sanitary hot water. It comes with a cooling option for hot summer days.
Environmental Comfort
Daikin Altherma works without oil, gas or other hazardous substances – reducing potential risk that goes together. Moreover, you don’t need a gas connection or a fuel tank. No risk of intoxication, smell or pollution from leaking tanks.
1A / Outdoor Unit: an efficient use of energy from the air
Daikin Altherma uses a natural source of energy. The outdoor unit extracts heat from the outside air and transfers it inside through refrigerant piping to supply heating. The compact outdoor unit is easily installed and, as no drilling or excavation work is required, it can also be installed in condos and apartments.
1B / Hydrobox: the Heart of the Daikin Altherma System
The hydrobox heats the water that circulates through low temperature radiators, floor heating systems or fan coil units and also provides domestic hot water. If you opt for the combination of heating and cooling, then the hydrobox can also reverse the cycle to provide lower water temperatures and thus cooling to the home.
2 / Domestic Hot Water Tank: for low energy consumption
As for your domestic hot water, Daikin Altherma is just as clever. The unique lay-out and special placement of the system components maximize energy efficiency. The water inside the storage tank is primarily warmed up by thermal energy from the outside air, thanks to a heat exchanger connected to the heat pump. However, an additional electrical heating element in the domestic water tank can take care of extra heat required in the shower, tub or sink. At necessary intervals the water is automatically heated to 158°F or more to prevent the risk of bacteria growth. With Daikin Altherma, delightfully warm and perfectly safe water can be enjoyed at all times. Depending on the daily consumption of hot water, Daikin Altherma domestic hot water tanks are available in two different sizes.
4 / Solar kit
The solar kit provides the transfer of solar heat to the Daikin Altherma hot water tank via an external heat exchanger. In contrast to tanks with two heat exchangers, this system allows the entire content of the tank to be efficiently heated with solar heat and, if necessary, with heat pump energy.
