Daikin Europe has recently unveiled the latest update on Daikin Altherma 3 WS, an innovative solution to decarbonizing apartment buildings. The indoor water-to-water heat pump now works up to 16 bars and therefore meets high-rise building requirements. Decarbonizing the European building stock, and more specifically apartments, is an important step towards a greener future, since the building sector accounts for 40% of the energy used in Europe. With more people living in flats in urban areas, Daikin Altherma 3 WS offers the perfect solution to decarbonize apartment buildings.
Daikin Altherma 3 WS is an indoor water-to-water heat pump with an integrated domestic hot water cylinder. It provides heating, cooling, and domestic hot water. It is part of a larger solution for apartment buildings, called “water loop system”. The system consists of a central heating generator working on renewable energy that pre-heats the water and distributes it to individual heat pumps, installed in each apartment. Daikin Altherma 3 WS heats it up a second time to meet individual needs. Its minimal footprint and silent operations make it as discreet as possible in the apartment.
In 2020, Daikin Altherma 3 WS was introduced as an innovative solution to decarbonizing apartment buildings. It reduces the energy needed to produce water temperature, the heat losses during the transport and the insulation on the piping system in the building. Now after update, the heat pump can work up to 16 bars.
