High Efficiency
High efficiency is an important requirement of the systems; they should
not operate at a coefficient of performance (COP) less than 4.0
(Mayekawa heat pumps).
P9
Produce Higher
Temperature
Produce water at up to 194°F—far hotter than that produced by
standard heat pumps. (The EcoCute water-to-water heat pump and the
Unimo air-to-water heat pump).
P10
Robust components
CO2 refrigerant cycles operate at far higher pressure than standard
vapor-compression-cycle equipment. The compressor should be robust
to withstand such high pressure.
P11
Product having dual
functions
Product should provide space cooling in addition to hot water (just the
water-to-water and air-to-water models), the COP can be as high as
8.0.(Daikin)
P12
Low cost of
maintenance
Inexpensive components

P14
Product should be
compact
Generally, a double tube construction is used in water heat
exchangers. When this is applied to heat pump water
heaters, a leakage detection ditch is added to prevent mixture
of refrigerants or oil and water in the event of refrigerant
leakage. However, this type of double tube has the
drawbacks of being heavy, expensive, and difficult to reduce
in size.
