With the arrival of the winter heating season, with the gradual rise of the air source heat pump market, more and more residents are beginning to choose to use air source heat pumps for heating. Below, Leomon summarizes several major issues that need to be paid attention to when using air source heat pumps.
1. The equipment installation work is not done well
As the name suggests, air source heat pumps need to absorb heat from the air to generate heat. Therefore, although it does not need to consume coal and natural gas, it also needs more attention in the installation location.
Under normal circumstances, it is recommended that air source heat pumps be installed in locations with good air circulation, such as balconies, outdoor air conditioning positions, outdoor platforms, etc. These locations not only have strong air circulation, but also suitable air temperatures, which are more conducive to the heat absorption and heating of air source heat pumps.
2. Clean up defrosting water in time
The installation time of the "coal to electricity" project is relatively tight, and sometimes the installation is not very standardized. If the drainage pipe is not handled properly after defrosting, the defrosted water may flow to the ground, and it will quickly freeze when the weather is cold, which will not only cause inconvenience to users' travel, but also damage the air source heat pump. Therefore, in this case, it is best for users to clean it up in time and deal with the drainage problem with the assistance of after-sales personnel to eliminate hidden dangers.
3. Insufficient refrigerant in the heat pump
Refrigerant is what we commonly call refrigerant. It is the key substance for air source heat pump heating. To complete heating, the air source heat pump must use refrigerant as an intermediate medium to continuously absorb heat from the air. However, if the air source heat pump is used for a long time, there may be a refrigerant leak. Once the amount of refrigerant is reduced, the heating capacity of the equipment will naturally decrease, which will lead to a significant drop in the temperature of the hot water. The solution is very simple, contact the after-sales staff to replenish the refrigerant.
4. Understand the best energy-saving method
Generally speaking, most users use air source heat pumps for heating at night when the temperature is relatively low, and they may turn off the heat pump when not in use during the day. This is actually very dangerous, because the heat generated by the air source heat pump is transferred through water as a carrier. If the power is off when used in a low temperature environment, the heat pump is likely to be frozen.
The correct method should be to set the set temperature of the heat pump to the lowest when the air source heat pump is not needed to work, so that the heat pump can keep the antifreeze function working, which can effectively solve the problem of energy waste and heat pump antifreeze.
In addition, after a long passive power outage, the antifreeze of the pipe is a problem. This situation is likely to occur in rural areas. If the power outage is relatively long, users must take certain measures to prevent the air source heat pump from being frozen. Open the joints and valves and drain the water in the pipes. In this way, even if there is a power outage, it can avoid freezing the pipes and heat pumps due to low temperatures.
