Most modern heat pump installations can only generate a maximum temperature of 50-55°C. This temperature potential is not sufficient to integrate them with existing convective and radiator-based space heating systems in severe climates.
This paper discusses the findings from an experimental study evaluating the efficiency of a fan coil-based air heating system. Using a peaking boiler fueled by natural gas from the main supply has been shown to be the most cost-effective method for generating thermal energy with peak-load heating systems. For consumers without access to the main gas supply, a heat pump system that heats the room air by extracting heat from the ground through a well system is significantly more efficient than any other heating system options available. One significant drawback of this system is its substantial upfront capital expenditures, which are significantly higher – more than 5 times – than those of all other viable alternatives. These technical solutions become viable (with a payback period of less than 10 years) when energy prices rise significantly, by more than an order of magnitude. |
