The use of renewable energy sources is gaining in importance. As the demand for economic and future-orientated heating technology increases, architects and heating engineers are faced with new challenges. The new Vitocal heat pumps represent a further important step towards meeting these challenges successfully. All Vitocal heat pumps are based on a uniform modular system. Depending on the version, the new Vitocal 300 heat pumps utilize the heat from the ground, the groundwater or the surrounding air. Because of the uniform temperatures in the ground and groundwater, the operation of the heat pump is independent of the external air temperature and can yield the full heat output even on cold days. Their heat output range is finely graded in a bandwidth from 4.8kW to 82kW (ground source) and 106kW (water source).

Low energy systems design

Against the background of new legislation and regulations on energy conservation, the low-energy house is set to become the standard for the future. The optimum heating system for this design concept comprises hot water heating backed up by domestic ventilation. The Vitovent 300 ventilation systems assure the supply of fresh air to all rooms. Vitovent filters and warms the air and reduces the ventilation heat demand to a minimum through heat recovery.

System Components:

1. Heating Technology Modulating and condensing boilers for economic and environmentally friendly heating.

2. Heat Pumps For exploiting the renewable energy sources of the environment – with Vitocal 300 heat pumps for extracting heat from the ground, the groundwater and the air.

3. Solar Collectors Complete and perfectly matched solar heating systems comprising:

• Flat Collectors

• Vitosol 100

• Vacuum tube collectors

• Vitosol 200

• Vitosol 300

4. Domestic Ventilation Domestic ventilation systems with or without heat recovery. Vitovent 300 can transfer 94% of the exhaust air heat to the ventilation air. The ventilation heat demand is therefore reduced to a minimum.

5. Hot water cylinders Convenient and economic hot water supply with the DHW cylinders. Vitocell 300 - constructed from high-alloy stainless steel. Vitocell 333 – the multi-mode combination cylinder for solar domestic hot water applications and central heating backup.

6. Underfloor/Radiators
