Ecodan is a heat pump boiler, what is a heat pump?
A heat pump is a refrigerant based system, (like your refrigerator at home). The system can absorb low grade heat from the air (air source), water (water source) or ground (ground source), and raise its temperature efficiently to be suitable for space heating and/or hot water. Ecodan is an air source heat pump system and can provide water temperature up to 60oC (without backup electric heater) in ambient temperatures as low as -10oC.
