Description
Create the ultimate Hybrid Heating System
Inta Hydra is a new hybrid solution for homes which currently have a working combi-boiler installed. You can install an energy-efficient heat pump without removing your existing combi-boiler and without adding a hot water storage tank. Current hybrid system methods can prove to be too expensive and require too much space.
When an Air Source Heat Pump cannot provide heat, the Inta Hydra allows the original combi-boiler to operate, providing constant heating, even during the coolest temperatures.
When the heating demand becomes greater than the heat pump can meet, the Hydra’s programmable control monitor will, after a series of timed-out delays, revert to using the combi-boiler for heating the home.
It only does this when the heat pump is not delivering enough heat, and it doesn’t go back to the combi-boiler just because it’s cold outside.
The electronic controller allows the installer to set the operation to match the operating COP (coefficient of performance) with 4 profiles,
PROFILE 1: The factory default, to BS EN 14511 return temperature of 40°C
PROFILE 2: For Low COP ASHP operation
PROFILE 3: For High COP ASHP operation
PROFILE 4: Allows a full 24-hour day on gas boiler room heating when demand is high, more suitable for older less well insulated properties
Inta Hydra will allow a heat pump installation that retains the existing boiler installation.
The key to the patent pending (Patent publication GB2633750) control logic is focused around clever delay time outs and temperature monitoring which allow the heat pump to engage all its operational functions like defrost and weather compensation without compromise, while providing protection from any conflict with unnecessary use of the secondary heat source, namely the combination boiler.
COST EFFECTIVE: Add to an existing heating system, rather than replacing a functioning boiler
SMART HYBRID CONTROL:Switches from ASHP to boiler to maintain heating supply only when necessary
REQUIRED LITTLE SPACE: At just 50 x 50cm, it can be easily concealed within a small kitchen unit
