long-term energy savings. By integrating heat pumps, housebuilders are not just enhancing the appeal of their developments— they are meeting regulatory demands and aligning with growing public demand for sustainable living.
THE PATH FORWARD
Heat pumps are set to become an indispensable feature of housebuilding as the UK accelerates its journey towards net zero. For housebuilders, this is no longer a choice – it is a legislative and environmental necessity.

Altecnic launch new high efficiency Deaerator for heat pumps 18/12/2024 09:16
Altecnic Ltd is excited to announce the release of the HED® 5516 Series High-Efficiency Deaerator. Specifically designed to enhance and protect heat pump systems, the HED® 5516 Series removes up to 99% of air from the thermal medium on its first pass, ensuring optimal system performance. By eliminating air, the unit reduces noise, corrosion, localised overheating, and potential mechanical damage, delivering smoother and more reliable heating and cooling. The HED® 5516 Series’ unique design enhances air separation, guiding micro-bubbles into a calm zone for effective expulsion, reducing noise and corrosion while improving heat transfer to enhance the performance and longevity of heat pump systems. The hygroscopic safety cap featured in the HED® 5516 Series seals to prevent leaks and ensures system protection. Constructed from high-performance composite materials, the HED® 5516 Series is built to withstand the demanding conditions of heating and cooling systems. Its crack-resistant, abrasion-resistant design ensures long-term durability while minimizing the risk of material permeability. Furthermore, it is fully compatible with glycols and additives used in various heating and cooling circuits, making it a versatile solution for modern systems. The HED® 5516 Series is designed for easy integration into a wide range of system configurations.
