How many hours a day is the best operation of air source heat pump?
The air source heat pump does not need to be switched on and off frequently, but it does not mean that the air source heat pump is always working. How many hours does the air source heat pump operate normally in a day? Let’s take a look.Although the air source heat pump is turned on 24 hours a day, it does not mean that the air source heat pump is always working, and there is also time for heat preservation. After the user turns on the air source heat pump, set a certain temperature, and after reaching the set temperature, it will enter the heat preservation mode. At this time, it will not work, and the power consumption can be almost ignored.
However, many newly installed users think that they can meet the hot water or heat demand and can be turned on 24 hours a day, so that the unit produces a large amount of heat, the unit selection is small, and the initial investment is small. Is this really the case?
In the case of a fixed input power, the heat production of the unit changes with the ambient temperature and the temperature of the outlet water. By extending the start-up time, the heat production can be increased theoretically, but this will increase the failure rate and service life of the unit in the long run. .
In this regard, Leomon Technology suggests that the air source heat pump's daily operating time is within 15 hours, which can guarantee the normal operation of the unit and the service life of the unit, and reduce the risk of failure of the unit that affects the user's use and reinvestment.
How to avoid long working hours of air source heat pump?
The startup and shutdown of the air source heat pump is achieved through the set temperature of the unit. When the unit has not reached the set temperature, the unit will be in the on state; when the unit reaches the set temperature, the unit will be in a shutdown state. ; From this we can see that the start and stop of the unit is directly related to the set temperature. When we use the unit, we should set the temperature reasonably according to the user's requirements.
