PRODUCTS & SERVICES Products of the month Rinnais heat pump range delivers immediate carbon neutrality Company provides hot water and heat pump systems for all fuel sources R innai has launched a comprehensive new range of heat pumps and ancillary products, including hybrid hot water tanks, which can now be conveniently delivered directly to the site as a complete system. These heat pumps are an integral part of Rinnais H3 solutions, aimed at achieving lower carbon emissions. Rinnai heat pumps are an optimal choice for decarbonisation, providing immediate carbon neutrality for domestic and commercial settings. The Monobloc air source heat pump comes in variants ranging from 4kW to 110kW. The low-global warming potential (GWP) heat pumps allow for up to seven units to be cascaded together, making them suitable for meeting heating or hot water demands. The systems ability to switch between heating, hot water, and cooling modes ensures flexibility and durability. The heat pumps are designed to operate with minimal noise, complying with stringent sound standards and making them suitable for areas with noise regulations. All Rinnai heat pumps use R32 refrigerant, known for reducing electricity consumption by up to 10% and having a lower GWP compared with other refrigerants. The HPI heat pump range from Rinnai has an Energy-related Products (ERP) rating of A+++. It offers the ability to switch between heating, hot water and cooling settings, catering to various requirements. These heat pumps deliver both domestic and commercial needs while minimising harmful emissions into the atmosphere. Rinnai products are designed to maintain high operational performance, have a long product life-cycle, and reduce costs and environmental impact for customers. Recently, the companys H3 low-GWP 55kW heat pump/hybrid hot water tanks with cascaded continuous flow hot water units were specified at a new development in Farringdon in London. The development includes a luxury hotel, office complex, and affordable homes. The site will eventually have a luxury hotel with 150+ bedrooms, almost 20,000ft2 of office space, and nine new-build affordable residential units. The hotel group already has one hotel in London with two others planned. The H3 series is made up of a range of products that encompass hydrogen- and BioLPG-ready technology hybrid systems as well as a wide selection of low-GWP heat pumps and solar thermal solutions. Additionally, the H3 series includes Infinity hydrogen blendready and BioLPG-ready continuous flow water heaters, which boast numerous features, ensuring long-lasting durability, customer satisfaction, and energy efficiency. The H3 range, consisting of H1, H2 and H3 options, provides various configurations suitable for residential or commercial use. These options encompass heat pumps, solar and hydrogen systems, and hybrid formats, and are designed to offer efficient, robust and affordable appliances that contribute to practical, economically viable, and technically feasible decarbonisation solutions. The range covers an array of available fuels and appliances, including electric, gas, hydrogen, BioLPG, rDME solar thermal, low-GWP heat pumps, and electric water heaters.
