heir eyes will be on the early installations of the Daikin Altherma 3 H HT (H is for hydro). This new addition to the Daikin heating range
takes specifications and aesthetics to new highs, even if ambient temperatures fall to -28ºC.
Building on the success of earlier high temperature models, the new Daikin Altherma 3 H HT eliminates the need for a secondary (cascade) refrigerant circuit to achieve high output temperatures. Its double injection compressor is capable of raising water temperatures up to 70ºC for heating circuits (up to 80ºC for domestic hot water) even in the harshest of weather. It does this with just 4.2kg of low Global Warming Potential R32 refrigerant, which matches the power of standard refrigerants, but with greater energy efficiency and lower CO2 emissions
wer CO2 emissions.
And unlike earlier models, the new Daikin Altherma 3 H HT simplifies installation by requiring only water
connections between the indoor and the outdoor unit. The outdoor unit introduces a new Daikin design
that has already won iF and Red Dot design awards. The unit has a matt grey casing and a black front grille that together blend with a wide range of architectural styles from classic stonework to contemporary materials. The grille conceals the large single fan that replaces the twin fans of earlier designs. The grille reduces the perception of sound
– but the fan itself features a new design to improve airflow and reduce sound.
As a further improvement towards quieter operation, the compressor is enclosed in a sound- insulated metal box that stands on an anti-vibration plate with rubber pads underneath. In standard sound
mode the unit produces a sound at three metres, while in low so to 35dB(A) at three metres.
