Panasonic Aquarea heat pump

In this manual, you will ﬁ nd useful information that will allow you to operate your Panasonic Aquarea system to provide heating & hot water in the most efﬁ cient and cost effective way.

Overview of System

The centre of your system is the market leading high performance “Panasonic Aquarea” air source heat pump. This heat pump can provide all your heating and hot water, heating will be delivered using underﬂ oor, traditional radiators or fan assisted radiators, Hot water will be supplied from a cylinder, Delivery of heat is usually controlled by the Panasonic controller, which will automatically operate your heat pump when heating is required during the heating season and hot water all year round. Room heating control will be from room wall mounted thermostats or on the radiators (TRV’s).

Bi-Bloc option New All in One option

Heating control App for smartphone, tablet or computer (Optional)

The heating control App allows you to control the heating and hot water system via your smart phone, tablet or computer with ease, whether at home or away. The heat pump can be also connected to house management system using KNX, Modbus or Zig Bee interfaces.

Aquarea Air. High efficient radiators for heating and cooling (Optional)

· High efficient radiators working with water at 35°C.

· No need for two kits if both floor heating and radiators are required.

· As the product is efficient, it opens the possibility to also provide cooling while still meeting construction requirements.

Panasonic offers a cooling mode within its heat pump range for low consumption homes.

Water tanks (Optional)

· High efficient tank solution: specially designed to improve the efficiency of the domestic hot water production .

· Low energy losses

· High exchange surface for high efficiency and short time to heat up the water.

· 180, 200, 300, & 400 L versions

· WH-TD20E3E5-UK / WH-TD30E3E5-UK

· PAW-TE18C2E3HI-UK / PAW-TE18C2E3STD-UK

· PAW-TE30C2E3STD-UK / PAW-TE40C2E3STD-UK

Heating & Hot Water preparation in detail

Radiators (Panel Heaters)

To optimise the maximum efﬁ ciency and lowest ﬂ ow rate from the heat pump to heat the room, radiators can be wider or deeper than radiators you expect to see when connected to a boiler system. For maximum efﬁ ciency and individual room temperature control, Thermostatic Radiator Valves (TRV’s) are ﬁ tted. Most radiator thermostats will either have numbers or roman numerals marked on them when they are adjusted, the higher the number, the warmer the room target set will be.

Underfloor Heating (UFH)

Where underﬂ oor heating is installed you will see a manifold in a cupboard with pipes coming off them and going into the ﬂ oor, these pipes heat the ﬂ oor and therefore the room, the room temperature will be controlled by a room thermostat connected. Do not use a high insulated product in ﬂ oor ﬁ nishing as this will inhibit the heat being transferred from ﬂ oor to air, and in turn increase the ﬂ ow temperature to achieve target air temperature, with increased running costs.

Fan Coil (fan Assisted Radiators)

Designed to operate at a lower ﬂ ow temperatures than traditional radiators to heat the room and ideal to be used with heat pumps where underﬂ oor is not an option.

Outdoor Unit

The outdoor unit extracts temperature from the air when the fan is turning to start the process of changing this low temperature to a high temperature using a compression cycle, once the compression cycle is carried out the heat is transferred to the heating or hot water depending on requirements.

Monobloc

Panasonic supply 2 types of heat pumps, ﬁ rstly a Monobloc system, in this system the hot water produced to feed the heating and hot water is produced externally from the property inside the outdoor unit.

Bi-Bloc

The other Panasonic unit is called a Bi-Bloc system this unit generates hot water from an internal unit (Hydro module) connected to an outdoor unit.

All in one*

New All in One hydromodule + 200l tank Panasonic has developed a highly efﬁ cient solution, easy to install. Based on the Bi-Bloc system, you have an outdoor unit, with the Hydro Module and DHW Cylinder all in one cabinet indoors. *Preliminary design. Signiﬁ cant changes may occur.

Cylinder

Where a system is installed to supply hot water their will be a cylinder with ready to use stored hot water at approximately 50°C, this water is lower than you would expect from a boiler system but hotter than you require for washing/showering 39-44°C, more volume is stored to compensate for less cold water mixing for use, therefore saving money on not heating water to a higher stored temperature.

Room Thermostat

This allows a simple adjustment to the room temperature, the higher the room target set the higher the running cost. It can be supplied as an option by Panasonic (PAW-A2W-RTWIRED or PAW-A2W-RTWIRELESS) or another one can be used.
