Fresh-water storage tank with buffer
High-quality fresh-water storage tank with buffer unit for heat pump systems to be used for hygienic domestic water heating in continuous-flow principle and for the heating and cooling of heating water. The storage tank provides 2 functions. Fresh-water heating takes place in the upper part of the tank, the lower part buffers the heating return and provides defrost energy for the heat pump. The insulated structure of both tank areas allows for large temperature differences. Thus, simultanous heating of the hot water and cooling operation of the surface heating system is possible through the heat pump in the summer.
Separate heating elements can be retrofit for both storage tank areas.
