Description
Powered by the natural refrigerant R744 (better known as refrigerant grade CO2), Leomon's R744 heat pump is one of the cleanest, most efficient and environmentally friendly ways to heat domestic water. R744 is non-toxic, non-flammable, has an ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) of zero and a GWP (Global Warming Potential) as low as 1. R744 also outperforms other common refrigerants such as R134a and R410a, making Leomon's R744 heat pumps a better, longer lasting and more sustainable solution.
Year-round hot water production
Due to the unique qualities of carbon dioxide (R744) as a refrigerant, R744 heat pumps provide a reliable source of hot water in air temperatures as low as -4°F and water or glycol mixes as low as 18°F. This can significantly reduce or eliminate reliance on supplemental water heating solutions, reducing heating costs and square footage usage.
Most heat pump water heaters struggle or fail to operate in temperatures below 35°F, so buildings using heat pumps often rely on supplemental water heating solutions to step in during the colder months. "Leomon's R744 heat pump" solves this problem with its wider operating range.
Unrivaled Energy Efficiency
The wide ambient operating conditions of the R744 heat pump provide a high COP all year round, which means lower energy bills.
The theoretical COP of a gas or electric resistance water heater is physically limited to 1.0 (i.e. 100%), while an R744 heat pump can achieve a COP of 5.0 or higher. By absorbing "free" heat from the surrounding air or water, rather than heat generated by electricity or fuel sources, less energy is required to produce the same heat output.
High Performance and Durability
The R744 heat pump acts as a single source system solution to provide buildings with an optimized heat pump hot water system for maximum output and efficiency.
Duplex stainless steel tanks allow for higher water temperatures and outdoor use. That means less storage space and more durability. Remote control systems allow for easier maintenance, data logging, and more, saving time and staying on top of any operational issues. The compact intermediate circuit slides allow for optimal heat exchange and are easy and safe to maintain.
Eco-Friendly Choice
The R744 heat pump water heater runs entirely on electricity and uses natural refrigerant CO2 (R744), which is safe, non-flammable and non-toxic. CO2 (R744) has a GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 1, and unlike the commonly used refrigerants R134a and R410a, which have GWP values 1,430 times and 2,088 times higher, respectively, it has practically no negative impact on global warming.
With the regulatory environment increasingly focused on reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants, R744 heat pumps are a forward-looking solution.
